He just got Fred who is in his mid twenties and Dalot who is one of most promising fullbacks in his age bracket.
Are you expecting us to be Southampton and field a team full of prospects so we can sell them for a huge profit?
Top teams have a mix of youth and experience. Man City have experience in the key positions and supplement it with young players like Sterling and Sane. Both City and United have an average age of 27 for their squad.
Absolutely not, the Manchester United first team is not for developing players, that's what the Academy squads are for. Having experienced players in the squad is obviously a good thing, that's not the problem I can see. But signing players towards the end of their career for big money is not a great approach, in my opinion.
The experienced players should already be there, so they can pass on their experience and the traditions and ethics of the club. That's where the real gains are.
There is a difference between having an older Scholes, Giggs or Carrick in the squad and signing our rivals ageing players.
Simply, do you think signing Willian, who is nearly 30 and for a fee of around £70M makes a lot of sense?
And would you not prefer to sign players on an upward curve, or at their peak rather than on a downward spiral?
The experience is in the squad we have De Gea, Young, Valencia and Mata, we have Carrick coaching and these guys have Manchester United experience, which is more important.
I really don't think we have to sign Willian to add experience to the squad.
