    The Wobby reporter must have just checked his Twitter.

    Possibly, but your point is o_O

    My point is that the Wobby are a useless source when it comes to the club as they have no idea what is going on anymore. All their stories are previously reported elsewhere.

    Twitter is also guesswork usually by people who’s whole focus in life is to be ITK.

    Mostly, but you can trust Fabrizio Romano. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s his tweet that prompted the Wobby story!

    Given that Twitter is where Fabrizio Romano has said talks have begun, and Romano is very knowledgeable and connected about transfers - and is very likely where the Watford Observer have taken the story from, then yes, in this instance I would say Twitter is better.

    There are reliable accounts on Twitter, you just need to know which ones to take notice of and which ones to ignore. If you're getting your info from the papers then I guarantee it's already on Twitter or has even originated from Twitter.

    You mean after the fans gave him pointless and unacceptable abuse after he scored his first? Fair f*cking play to the bloke.

    I would happily have him back..... if nothing else we might actually score from free kicks

    I am about as excited about this transfer as I was with Glenn Murray's. Nil.

    Glenn 'one goal in over 20 games last season' Murray vs Ashley 'won the Scudetto with Inter' Young?

    Would love him, good Premier League backup for KING KEN.

    When we are interested in a player 32+ I can't help but feel unexcited, don't matter how good they were once.

    When I said when we are interested in players 32+ I was referring to realistic targets.

    Seems a perfectly logical set of priorities.

    Yes, but he doesn't spend an inordinate amount of his time splashing 'private' pics of him & his popstar-ish partner all over the media. And isn't his Dad still his agent? Seems way too 'old school' for where our club should be heading.

    Hopefully we can tie Ashley down to a 5 year deal

    They say sentiment shouldn’t come into it and you should never go back, but I’ve never ruled out a return to my old school team even though I left in 1982.

    When all’s said and done, it’s not for us to say what’s best for Ashley Young.

    The whole Italian Champions v likely English relegation candidates, Italy v England, pizza and pasta v soggy roast beef and chips debate is for him to decide on. He may well fancy a return to living in England after a time away.

    Our responsibility is what’s best for Watford, and personally I think he’d be a quality signing. Experience, versatility and the emotional homecoming too.

    Like a lot of people here have already said, I’m hoping we don’t go down the road of lots of overpaid, overhyped 30+ year olds looking for one last big pay cheque kind of signings, but I wouldn’t class Ashley Young in this category.

    Glenn Murray has done well to get a pop star missus!

    The information you’re looking for is in the post you quoted

    When he scored the first goal he ran up in front of the rookery at which point he was booed. Second goal he cupped his ear. He’s Man Utd now, too big for us

    True, but Glenn had to find a popstar of his own generation and was therefore delighted when he and Lulu hit it off immediately.

    When Manatleisure gives an opinion on a player smart people listen. He's bang on all the time.

    He was linked with dame Vera before her untimely passing.

    Untimely passing? Sounds more like Troost Ekong.

    I heard that Manat's account is run by a collaboration of ITK's and those who frequent the local ESSO garage.
