Power play: Ashley Young backs Manchester United to land the Premier League title
STRONG START: Ashley Young Ashley Young believes Manchester Unitedssquad strengthcan underpin a 20th Premier League title.
The 16.5m newcomer from Aston Villa has pinpointed Uniteds substitute line up against Arsenal as evidence the Champions can retain the Premier League crown.
The clubs most successful player Ryan Giggs, 30m England defender Rio Ferdinand, last seasons second top scorer Chicharito, the Reds 30.75m record buy and number one striker last term Dimitar Berbatov were among those who didnt make Sir Alex Fergusons starting XI against the Gunners and had to settle for seats on the bench.
The strength of our squad is the difference, says Young.
Look at our bench, and even people who didn't make it or are injured, Vida, Carrick, just to name a few. The squad the manager has built is terrific.
There is competition for places and you have to be on your toes.
I haven't experienced anything like that against Arsenal. We went about our job from the first minute to the last. We were terrific. We played an Arsenal team that weren't so good on the day and we have punished them.
Young punished them with two goals, though he is unlikely to be credited with his West Brom deflection on the opening day, he is anticipating more goals than last seasons tally of nine with Villa.
We create more chances here, Ashley added.
You see the way we went forward. We are always looking to go forward at pace. We are always looking to create chances. We were terrific against Arsenal from the goalkeeper to the forwards. Hopefully we can continue that form and take it all the way through to the end of the season.
The 8-2 demolition of the Gunners saw United edge ahead of City at the top of the Premier League by a single goal.
!
But Young insists the Reds wont be distracted by the Blues and the title fever already building in Manchester.
We won't worry about City too much. We will concentrate on ourselves. That is exactly what we will do from now until the end of the season. We look good at the minute and hopefully we can build on it.
Should Ferguson rotate his squad or keep faith with the youngsters? Have your say.
