Really? Possibly, then. I've been taking it as a given for ages that'd he get a new contract, though! If he is released, it's a BIG mistake.

If Luke Young isn't here next season it won't be because we haven't offered him a new deal. It will be because a bigger and better club want him.
Technically one of our best players with just over a hundred professional games I think now. Luke is going places beyond League Two in his career. I just hope it is with us.

In and out is Luke
When he playing well he can be the best passer of the ball on the pitch
When he has a bad game like he did yesterday he is god awful and will misplace every pass

Overall, I like Luke and I think we should keep him.
I will admit, he wasn't great on Monday but he wasn't alone was he?

I think today demands more than technical skills to be successful. Although the Premier League is awash with money, one of the less costly aspects of what they do must be developing a player's physique. Surely it is hard and relentless work rather than pots of money. I look at that lad Bolasie now and see his wide shoulders and massive upper-body strength. At Home Park we seem to have had a long series of young lads who never develop a strong physique and do not then have the strength required to out-muscle opponents. I think with the physical strength the mental strength quickly follows. If Luke Young is to make it in a higher sphere then he has to become stronger physically and then he will be able to dominate games, something he does not do too often at present.Frazer Lloyd-Davies":166dnihk said:
I think (very much like the team) that he's been better than last season but needs to improve even further.
I'd offer him a deal and hope he keeps progressing.
He's only turned 21 just recent. For a midfielder who doesn't rely on his pace/engine, that's absolutely no age at all. Still very young.

A player that with some consistency and a decent run of games (goes hand in hand I suppose) could develop into a very tidy midfielder.
He needs exposure and to build on both his confidence and development.

We lost Luke Summerfield, which always annoyed me, and we shouldn't lose another Plymouth born lad who attempts to make his way in pro football.
Love his dinky passes and his quadrant free kicks, he just needs to concentrate a bit more, and I'm sure he could become a long serving player for us.
PAFC is far better when it has local lads amongst its ranks.

I think we have to take Luke Summerfield as an example who was also a late developer and didn't really establish himself in anyone's team until he was around 23 years old.
I'd give Young another contract for sure. There is potential there.
