In previous seasons, when the Europa League champions moved up to play in the UEFA Champions League in the following season, they often did not get good results. However, from Ashley Young's point of view, Man United this season is another story.
In a recent interview with the British media, the number 18 said: "Of course we can win the UEFA Champions League. You can't enter a game without winning. That is what we are aiming for and will solve with each match.
The next opponent is Sevilla. This was an away match as difficult as playing at Newcastle or Huddersfield. However, we have to focus on ourselves.
We are competing in the FA Cup, Champions League and still have the Premier League. The team knows the difference in points but nothing is impossible. We need to get more points, continue to progress and hope for the championship."
Ashley Young commented more specifically on the upcoming matches: "This is a tough week. We have found the winning feeling after losing to Newcastle.
The team cannot look too far. We clearly have Chelsea this week and ahead is Sevilla. Our thoughts are there.
Not long ago, former Man United midfielder Roy Keane thought that the "Red Devils" would face certain obstacles when allowing Ashley Young to play in defense.
In fact, Man United is the team with the most solid defense in the Premier League with 1 goal conceded less than Man City. The win over Huddersfield Town in the FA Cup round 5 last weekend was their 24th clean sheet of the season.
Ashley Young responded to Roy Keane's opinion: "That defensive record was great. I think many people talked about the defenders, many opinions were raised last week. Everyone has the right to express their opinions. Keep a clean sheet and we can intertune with goals.
Man United's next challenge will be the away trip to Ramon Sanchez pizjuan in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League round of 16. This match takes place at 2:45 a.m. on February 22, Vietnam time.
