Monitor – Ashley Young

8 March 2012 450 comments

Share:

Ashley Young’s brace at White Hart Lane has sparked a renewed interest in the Man United winger, fuelled by a slew of obliging fixtures in the coming weeks. Fantasy managers are flocking back to the former Villa man, hoping he can replicate his match winning feat against Spurs and re-establish himself as a top level Fantasy talent, having suffered a string of frustrating injuries this term.

Using the Opta data and our own ICT Index scores, this latest Members article takes time out to run the rule over Young’s season so far, analysing his recent performances and comparing him to team-mates Nani and Antonio Valencia to assess whether he can repay the current surge of investment.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Hey guys,

    Play Senderos (villa) or Turner (LIVERPOOL)?

    Usually would favour the home defender but villa have been awful at home and fulham hitting some hot form.

    thoughts much appreciated

    Vincent Kompany forced off early on in City's Europa League tie in Lisbon with a calf muscle injury. Lamps was out for months with calf injury. This means he is surely out of this w/e game IMO

      That says a lot about how poor the midfield have been at helping out. Seeing people have a go at the Arsenal defence all the time makes me think a lot of people don't understand. Arsenal's first choice defence is very good.

            Oh if you've already done it, then you have to look at this one on its own. If it's a good move, it doesn't matter all that much if you've already taken another hit this week. I'd go for it.
