Barkley. Coleman when he first came in. Declan Rice (in his first stint at West Ham). Just off the top of my head. Had to keep Neville, Hibbert and Noble and Kouyate in. When he did play these players it was often as sub and out of position to accommodate inferior senior pros.
Fairly shanked their careers then, didn't it. Other managers always just pop the 18 year old centre back or the absolute punt from Ireland in every game. It is also clear that you knew more about these players than the manager did, as you do with
Aznou or
Dibling.
For your criticism to actually work, there would have to be a notable trail of players whose careers were negatively affected by this draconian preference for 32 year olds. But there's a reason James Wallace or Bjarni Vidarsson or Hope Akpan didn't play for Everton. It was because they wouldn't have been good enough.
You could massage the facts if you wanted to make these claims about any manager, trust me. It doesn't hold water.
