Excellent summary, I even seen a few of them say we hardly have any international players when infact I think we have one more than them but its certainly close , they really are living in the past and are that arrogant and ignorant to think we don't have international players.Some Adam Smith rantings
All their defensive players are touching 30 at the next window
Katic 24
Goldson 28
Helander 27
Simpson 24
Tav 29
Borna 28
Bassey 21
Average age 25.87
They have to sell Kent who ( will be about to turn 25 at the close of next window ) for £7m just to break even.
Kent will turn 25 this year like that's some kind ancient age for a footballer and his value will drop massively because of it.
Morelos ( just about to turn 25 ) the 9th top scorer in the SPL over the last year whose couple of month purple patch Europe 18 months ago is becoming a bit of a distant memory.
Morelos 22 goals in Europe
French diddy 15 goals in Europe
Clubs around Europe will pay far more attention to Morelos and his group stage goals then French diddy hitting a penalty against Hamilton.
As with property being about location, location, location. Selling football players at a profit is about age, age, age.
Na Adam you muppet I think it's primarily about ability first and foremost.
Barkas is 26 and McGregor is 39 but only Stevie Wonder or Celtic would rank Barkas as more valuable.
Their starting 11 on average is around 5-6 years older than ours
How gutted I'm am that we don't have any young superstars like Ajeti, Klimala, Barkas, Hazard, Shevd, Boli, Guttman, Perez, Bayo and Hendry draining about £150,000 a week from us.
Equally inarguable is the £70-£80m cost a year to do this is tough without trading players profitably. It is nigh on impossible to do while adding negative capital outflows in player trading
Damn I guess we'll just have to find £25 million some other way, can't think of any? Oh wait.....
They will wake up one day, maybe after we win 3 leagues on the bounce.
