If they're good enough, it doesn't matter how old they are If this lad on our radar is good enough now, he'll be performing at a much higher than average level by age 23-24. There have been many keepers who've been excellent pre-25 years old. Off the top of my head: Robinson, Jennings,Cech,Banks,Shilton, Yashin,Casillas, etc etc. It just takes 'em longer to deteriorate than outside players. Good goalies stay good a lot longer, starting around 23.
So, the last line of my post (that you didn't highlight) - At the end of the day if you're good enough, it doesn't matter how old they are. Covers what you've just posted!!!!
So we're selling Brady for £7m, replacing him with Clucas for just over £1m... thats pretty good business considering Clucas will only be backup to Robertson who can now flourish on the left wing. Hopefully we'll get Snodgrass fully paid off and there might even be a little left over from the Brady deal for Bentley?
Sold Ince for £5 million and we're now selling Brady for £7 million. Our first signing is £1.3 million. Maybe it's a shrewd signing, or maybe Allam's pocketing most of the money from the transfers to pay off the 'loans'.
Turned out Bentley was missing due to the death of a family member. Brown trying to protect his privacy
Audio confirmation from Chesterfields manager, about 4 minutes in.. he says "He's gotta have a medical, sad to see him go, one of our better players" "offered near enough £1.3m"
It's his money. He knows nothing about football and he's something of a moron. The sooner he sells and leaves, the better.
I would hope every transfer we make as a Championship club would be capable, but I presume until we see him week in week out vs better players we will never really know
