[b]People seem to think being 27-31 is very old now. Reality is Man utd challenged for titles with a lot of old players but the reality is until they are about 33-34 years old they can still perform similar to before. I still think most of the players in the man city squad about 11 players have at least another 2 years at the top. Players like Clichy 29 years old, Zabaleta 29 years old, Kolarov 28 years old nearly 29, Sagna 31 years old, Fernando 27 years old, Caballero 33 years old, Navas 28 years old nearly 29, Aguero recently turning only 26, Kompany 28 years old, Demichelis 33 years old nearly 34, Jovetic 24 years old nearly 25, Lampard brief loan player 36 years old, Dzeko 28 years old, Silva 28 years old nearly 29, milner 28 years old nearly 29, Joe Hart only 27 years old, Fernandinho 29 years old, Yaya Toure 31, Mangala only 23 years old etc. So basically a lot of players are coming to there peak of there careers. I reckon in 2-3 years time players like Navas, Dzeko, Milner, Fernando, Kolarov, Sagna, Yaya Toure, Caballero etc will all be moved on. The older players like Demichelis will be his last season I reckon as will Sagna and Clichy as city will look for an upgrade. So my summary is Man city squad is at the peak age, only good for another 2-3 years before a massive change in squad personnel of about 11 players. http://www.ja606.co.uk/articles/viewArticle/287534[/b] |

AC Milan won the Champions league in 2007 with an average age of 31. This Man City team has an average age of 27 so I do not think they are old to continue fighting for titles. |
