Is going to be a big player for us next year. Can't see him leaving in the Summer so here's my attempt at positivity with regards to Ash:
Since he's come back from suspension, he looks hungry, he's been putting in a lot of effort on the pitch. Within minutes of coming on yesterday he very nearly scored twice, stopped by a great save from one chance and a goal-line clearance from a good header. He really looked like a threat in the box for us where we were lacking for the entire match. Just a bit more luck from one of those chances and the game would have changed completely, just down to him.
But also he looks to have gained some maturity from his time out. I honestly think, played as a striker, he would have been our top scorer this year and I have high hopes for him next year.
I know that a lot on NSC won't agree with this, but Barnes is in my opinion the most underrated player in our squad and I can see him becoming a top player in the next couple of seasons.
