Re: Clan Ashford

Re: Clan Ashford

Great to see him get a goal, not seen the game was the assist by Luey Giles?

Good to see a few youth players get meaningful game time, even if it was a forced hand.

Re: Clan Ashford

Played well today. He certainly is a better bet than El Ghazi.

Agreed.

His defensive work was solid which was important today, and yet isn’t easy for an attacking player.
