This age lark is sooooooo daft, Harry Kane, 32, another excellent footballer and super fit, yers left in modern footballers.

Think it's more about making a profit, mate, only problem is Moyes won't play the youngsters so they will decrease in value.

GB, you can identify good players over 30, and I wish we had Messi. However, not all players over 30 have retained the talent, skill, and physicality to prosper in the Premiership.
The problem is that we have too many older players who are nowhere near as good as Messi or Kane.
You need a balance of experienced older players and fast, exciting youngsters.
Unfortunately, we have a manager who has a strong tendency to have a first eleven of the more mature players, who, to be honest, have had their better days and leave the youngsters, who might make a difference, on the bench.

That's exactly what I'm saying, mate, not all are good and also not all are good under that age, it's a balance. I have no problem if we have a couple of over 30s who are good, like Jack and Tarks. Not so good lately though, Tarks.

Problem with the older players is the wages they want, for instance if we got Stones in, he'd want to be top earner like an ego thing, then Obrien and Branthwaite would get the hump cause Tarky and Stones are paid more then want to move so get 2 unhappy centrebacks just so 1 can have his last big payday sit on the bench or injured.

GB, the defense and Tarks were a disaster for the last 8 games. He is not the answer going forward, but he will be playing since Moyes will not drop him.

Best we have Mike.

Because we only have 4 centre backs, one injured, one playing right back, and the other two are dogs that needed ditching, not given new contracts, mate.
