We have Managers that discard old Players.

Similarly, we have the one that make use of them.

JM once says "it is not the age that matters but ability to carry oneself".

Sam allardyche believes a lot in Aged players and they were not dissapointing.

One need to see Giggs and Paul Scholes kiss this season.

I humbly dedicate this new year thread to Paul Scholes. keep it up man.

What is your take on this?

Havn't you heard this saying that Old wine taste better in new bottles.

Also, old men get category, Just like Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink is a nobody again, Scholesy and Giggs are still kicking better wink

But we should also consider that old players are also prone to injuries, and Managers dont want to pay for surgeries and other injury related expenses.
