I said otr that Walker is an excellent signing 18 months ago.

Currently, on a 2 year deal on high wages - takes him to 37 years of age, where he’d be coming up against pacey wingers who will fancy themselves against him - we’ve got one ourselves - I’d be against it.

Been the best RB in the prem in recent years, no doubt about it - but he’s nowhere near that level now. I’d have been very worried if we gone for him.

We signed some x Liverpool fullback once, think he was 38 ... the game seemed to just sail past him... don't think we or him lasted long? Kennedy?

I’d probably react to Walker exactly how I’d react to Henderson. Acknowledge that they bring awesome experience but worry big time about them not being up to pace. It’s not so much the top speed or even the acceleration but the reaction speed.

I wouldn’t have either of them in our best starting 11

I think pace gets exploited more if you’re a RB compared to being a CM.

He's a class signing. Like Hendo would be for us. You need to understand the importance of people who have been there and done that. It's crucial.

People who have been there and done it is all well and good if you can still keep up with the pace of the premier league game, and I don’t think Walker can.

We’ll see when the season starts, but I reckon he and Burnley will do poorly.
