Sam says we have too many younger players in the squad.... he wants all the OAPs.

He doesn't like the younguns, they are too youthful and attractive.

And dont like gravy

 

[Carl O'Ancelotti]

its OK having a blend of youth and experience but we take it to the extreme as there is nothing in between.

It’s not them letting us down it’s the seasoned pros

Jagielka

Those 4 will hopefully be booted out the club in the summer with Baines and golden boy Rooney hopefully reduced to squad players.

4 of them are considered old in football terms so, out of our massive squad we have 4 older players.....big wow.

Would you sign Ibra from United though ?

no thats what we should aim for, unfortunately all the experience is absolute dross so bin them and replace with quality. obviously a hell of a lot easier said than done but thats what walsh is earning big money for.
