Its like this, is signing a 35 year old that has done it all a major risk?

The pros :

Hes a world-class CB, even at 35, his class shines through, he's probably my favourite CB in world football
Highly respected within the game
He has a song

The cons :

Injuries, as he gets older he will pick up more

Hunger, as I say, he's done it all, but hopefully, the fresh challenge of the Premier League will help

Anyway, probably nowt in this, but you simply do not say no when World Class players are "available".
 
I think it'd be a no brainer if you could get him a on wages that aren't ridiculous, could slide right into to partner holgate or form a rotation with Mina, would allow for the sale of Keane maybe in January of next year.

Just the 8 muscle injuries. NBD.
 

There is absolutely no way he wouldn't be our top earner which means at least 125k per.

suppose even that with morgan gone we should still consider it massively

be interesting to see how quick he is .. maybe he doesn't need to sprint much in the french league always looked like he keeps himself in great condition
 
Hes averaged over 40 games per season since 2006, you gotta expect some fatigue.

Hes also still playing for Brazil.
Over 2,200 minutes played for PSG this season before Ligue 1 was cancelled. Roughly the same as Digne this season. Granted the PL will be higher tempo but those aren't the numbers of someone struggling to maintain their fitness.
