Quotes by Ashley Young - Page 2

There's a lot said now about younger players: that it's just about the cars and houses. I'm from the old school - it's about what you've achieved in the game.

As you get older, you start to read the game more, and as your brain starts working more, and as you get a good footballing brain, your legs start slowing down!

A lot of youngsters in the game think they've made it before they've done anything. But at United, they're given that winning mentality and an ethos of always trying to improve.

There are a lot of players competing for that wide attacking role, and if I'm brutally honest, if you aren't playing regularly, you can't get picked. I found that out, missing out on the World Cup.

I'm still operating as a wide player, and I'm still free to express myself, try to get one-v-one and get past someone, and there's no better feeling than getting over a great cross and someone scoring.

I've always said, when you join a club like United, it's a tough place to play at. But if you play and train and give 100%, then get your opportunity - I've always said you always get your opportunity there.

Copy Quote
I wouldn't say I've changed at all. A lot of people will keep saying I'm a different person, especially when I go across those white lines. I think it's just the hunger and desire and passion I've got for the game.

Hunger
Copy Quote
I had the brain for football, but I didn't have the height. So I started using my brain to overcome those weaknesses and discovered football isn't just about size or power: it's about what's up there. That was the making of me.

I had to go to see the careers woman at school, and when she asked me what I wanted to do after school, I told her flat: 'I want to be a professional footballer.' I can remember her being silent for a few seconds, just looking at me.

For me, my faith is a really big part of my life, and it is important for me to walk it out every day, .. Part of our faith as Christians is the command that we let people see who we are as Christians. I'm doing my part to show who I am and that I'm not ashamed of it.

I follow tennis, and I actually went to Wimbledon during the summer, and it was nice to get a day off during pre-season to watch it. Basketball as well - I don't have a team; it's just a casual interest - especially when the play-offs come around and the intensity rises.

If I've gone to get a takeaway, and I get chips... I like to match up the chips in length. That is actually quite weird. Obviously, if I've got chips, I pick them out in twos. That's a weird thing as well. You know, if they're not the same length, well, I go hunting for the same length in chips.

I was at Watford and got a knock-back when I was 16 and didn't get a YTS contract. They said I could find another club or go in and train three times a week after school. I'd been there since I was 10, so I got my head down and proved them wrong. Within a year, they had signed me up, and I haven't looked back.
