We need to remember age and speed is subjective and individual. Players like Owen are done way before others as their sole attribute is pace. Ledley showed that 'reading of the game' is a better attribute that extends your career. Also one player might have still be faster and fitter at 30 than another at 28. Look at James Milner, sure he's done now but he's 34!
When we get into Aurier is 27 but Doherty is 28, the age argument for me is moot.
There's nothing to say we can't get 3-4 very good seasons out of him with some resale value retained.

Nope it's not but I wouldn't be surprised if the Russian wants to win the spending pissing contest as they've been out of it a few seasons now.
Some people believe that in this final stage Mourinho doesn't have the final word, but Levy unilaterally does. In this manner, they could argue that for example Hojbjerg only arrived here because he was cheap, and Levy doesn't want to spend money, and that Mourinho didn't prefer him.
Or one could believe that from the beginning of this window Mourinho got on the same wave length as the club, and preferred getting realistic targets over the line quickly rather than asking for too expensive players he knew he wouldn't get. (My guess)
It is a matter of how much power Mourinho has versus Levy, and if you believe they are working together or working against each other.
Is it really realistic that he’s gonna leave Barca to be a back up striker? Come on...
Aren't there multiple reports suggesting that Poch got more and more power and authority regarding transfers over the years, and that he 'often' single handedly refused incoming transfers?
But he won't be a back up striker? Did you even read the post?
Couldn't give a shit. I like scummy players if they score goals for us.Suarez is scum.
And most on here thought Mourinho was scum before he became our manager.
In fact, with the cannibalism and the eye gouging, the two probably make the perfect combo.
head above the parapet: what he said in Spanish wouldn't be considered racist. The rest of his rap-sheet is all true. He's scum.
Imagine him and Diego Costa on the same team. Proper Mourinho team
Suarez is a fucking scumbag
but if you can’t see that he’d improve us dramatically even at his age, you must be smoking some mad dank
one of the best players in the world still

Yep. Love me some shit Twitter ITK.
Thinking about this further..... If he's not 100% focused/committed; behaviorally speaking, he could become a complete liability as his body starts to quit on him and frustration with the ageing process kicks in.
I know, and that makes me hate him that little bit more.
He would (footballing wise) be good for us.
Yes it's the Sun again but
