Rumours about the possibility of Ashley Young playing as striker.
Thoughts?

I hope it is just a rumour.

I guess plan A with Fellaini failed. Now plan B is young lol. Eventually we might even try blind there :)
On a more serious note he would be better than felaini, actually does take a man on, good dribbler, miles faster and has great shot.

I seem to remember him playing CF for Villa from time to time.
14 Sep 2015 20:28:02
What is up with Anthony Martial!?!
14 Sep 2015 20:40:20
He did play behind the striker at Villa sometimes and also for England a couple of times.
14 Sep 2015 20:52:08
Why not Martial. I know he has only just. Come in but he has played that position before.
14 Sep 2015 20:56:34
I think he had a stint up top for his High School team in Year 8 as well.
We are missing one striker and we are talking about Young, scary!
14 Sep 2015 22:10:18
It's scandalous we've put ourselves in this position young feilleni are not strikers got to play martial I get the feeling nothing is gonae phase this boy we paid the megabucks for him so get him played
14 Sep 2015 22:28:19
I did say we needed another striker before the transfer window closed!
{Ed025's Note - no shit Sherlock.. :)

I think wilson deserves a start
14 Sep 2015 22:42:21
Sure I saw him play there in pre season once or twice a couple of years back, and if I remember right his movement was brilliant. Sounds a bit desperate but if it happens I don't think you should knock him before he's had a chance there
15 Sep 2015 01:51:32
he played there for villa a few times. i think his best was against Everton when they won 3-1?? if memory serves.
15 Sep 2015 08:36:04
Yes Everton couldn't cope that day. I'm not wanting to see it regularly but as a one off let's see what he can do
15 Sep 2015 08:51:16
Mort you say let's do it as a 'one off' but one game can be the difference in this league in terms of being top, second or third.
Just saying.

Why wasn't it tried in pre-season?
