players lifespans

[Commachio]

is it about loyalty to a club and being rewarded for your service?
for example ryan giggs and paul scholes, both excellent players, both still at man u. and both will be offered extensions again, is their loyalty to man u now being repayed by the club. with so much coverage on tv, these types of players seem to have been around forever, and if you think of man u, you think of them. but more often than not if a player is constantly on the move they are not really associated with anything, only as being a good player.
who do you think made the mistake of moving, and their carreer suffered as a result
who should have stayed at safc

loyalty is a rare thing, prime example matt le tissier and southampton

skp, although a legend here, if he has seen out his time here, who knows what might have been

I don't think that it is loyalty that has earned Giggs et al new contracts, but ability. There is very little sentiment in the business world of football these days.

Exactly MrR.
The last decade Giggs and Scholes have been the best at what they do, and in reality for two British lads their was no bigger club could have tempted them away.
