Oh I think the two don't have to conflict though, I think you can recruit younger players and as long as the manager pays them it can be as effective as recruiting older experienced players but with the payoff of they improve rather than regress. And monetary value has to be a factor in that too.
Moyes is old school, he's rather have a 30yp cm whose been around the block than say a 20yo whose on the rise, zero doubt he will play Mykolenko every gsn unless injured zero doubt he will play McNeil on the right ahead of say Dibling, if we signed the Spanish he'd sit behind O'Brien.
I remember well how cautious he was playing business, Coleman etc, biggest case was Rooney who due to the age he tried to spell his tone despite it being apparent to all the lad was no normal 17yo
