I don't think people mean he is too old in the purest sense. For example, if we already had Soucek I suspect people would be fine renewing his contract. I think they mean that a large transfer fee, a signing fee and big wages as a total package...
Great post mate, 100%. I think with Moyes there now we can be assured of quality control, i think we can point to Mark - on a sometimes throw away position like back up gaol keeper to judge quality control. Its very clear - a decision was made to...
Dont get this "too old" malarkey about 30 year old players. We need a balance, of course we dont want half our team being the far side of 30 but I would adopt a "If you are good enough you are young enough" approach for a few players as long as...

I doubt that link is true but WHU would be mad to sell him for 12 mill, you’d absolutely bite their hand off.
The man himself was on WHU media yesterday - doesn’t like a man on the move to me...
I actually don’t think he did too bad last night. Appreciate 1) it’s Accrington Stanley and 2) it’s just a run about to get fit, but he must be up there with chances created/attempted shots.
Long long way to go, and the fear is he will break...
