Young did not have a much better season. He had a much better finish, which is a about it, and that was largely because Nani was injured towards the end. Young showed at the Euro's how shit he is when he was off his game - He was literally the worst player for England and one of the worst at the tournament. And when playing with other United players like he was, of course it's a factor. Like Nani he did have his poor spell's for us last season, and was one of our worst players in Europe. Nani was probably the only player to show up against BASELONA.

He scored more goals and got more assists, don't know how anyone can say Young had the better season.

Over the last 3 seasons Nani has almost 30 goals and something like 40 assists. Don't know how you could say he isn't United quality with that sort of production, he's also capable of putting the team on his back when he's on form, something Young is not.

Edit: Officially has 28 goals and 47 assists.

Vidic
Scholes
Fletcher
Valencia
Young
Nani
Rooney

Plus a bunch of young players who should be in a year or two like De Gea, Smalling, Jones, Chicarito and Welbeck. Highly doubt Kagawa will flop either so that's another. Only positions I'd say we don't have "MUFC quality" players are the wing back positions.

Don't get the argument that the current group of players aren't Utd quality. There's plenty of quality capable of winning the league in there. We'd be top dogs if we had a Ronaldo quality player still.

What happened against Spurs away last season then? Young took the corner that Rooney scored from when Spurs were completely outplaying Man U (and had a goal disallowed controversially). Then Young scored 2 brilliant goals in the second half.

Young played very well in the 2 friendlies before the Euros, not to mention scoring a bunch of goals in the qualifiers. He would have had 2 assists at the Tourney as well if Rooney and Milner hadn't missed sitters. I don't think he is as good as Nani on form but I do think he is more consistent and he isn't nearly as bad as you are making out.

Our squad is a lot stronger than people give it credit for. We have incredible depth all over the pitch, what kills us is that our obvious weakness (CM) is easy to exploit, oh and we'd be better off with a cone at Left Back.

That's actually a fair enough example. He was superb in that game, by the way I don't hate Young, nor do I think he's bad. I think he's an excellent squad player, I just think Nani is the better player.

Said it last summer; Young is a good player who has flashes of brilliance at times. Nothing more.

On his day, Nani is amazing. Has far more talent than Young and even Valencia. Problem is that day doesn't come around enough times. Still, he is a lot more valuable than Young.

I do he's a scumbag who dived against his old club when said club was in relegation danger, and it wasn't even a foul. So I wouldn't defend him for no reason.


I don't think Villa would have lost that game if Young hadn't dived for that pen. (Kiz do you have the Corporate Vieira smiley it's gone? )
