    Wonder who this idiot armchair reporter supports? Would be interesting to find out - sour grapes perhaps?

    Of course you need experience in this league, and how can he say signing Cesar is a mistake? He was Inters first choice until last season, and was voted the worlds best goalie in 2010. This bloke is spouting a load of utter rubbish.

    Another reporter on the ignore list.

    We do need youth and young prospects, but thats a luxury only the established have at this point......as long as we are still here next year, we are in the money and can look at developing that side.

    No, when half of your players are over 30 its pretty obvious there is no future, the team cant grow together because we will have to get in players every year. Just look at how Hills performances dropped off.

    A team should have no more than 5 30+ players in their 25 and the one who are that old should be the standard of Park and Cesar, not Derry, Hill, Johnson, Bothroyd etc.

    granero is a perfect example of the type of player we should buy, hes young enough to get 4 years out of him and be able to sell him on for 2-3 times what we paid for him. We struggle to get rid of the old players because they are vastly overpaid.

    One point that seems to be overlooked but made quite a fuss is the age of Cesar, I think it is now a fact that many teams have good GK in there late 30's or 40 something it is a position that lends itself to older playing age.
