I specifically asked you that qxn bcuz it is actually the origin/basis of the entire age discourse. Dayo clearly said Pep failed due to players from age 30 and above without considering any other factor. He blamed it strictly on age and no other factor.
Are you ok with age being the only factor that led to peps failure in city last season?
Nihilist: Man City's weakest unit was their defence. Kompany was injured most of the season, and Pep was often forced to play Kolarov, Sagna and Clichy in a 4 man defence.
Of course, there are several reasons why Pep failed, but age of the players he had was definitely a key reason.
You failed to answer the qxn Bros. Their cbs were very much age ok without company.i. e stones and otamendi. Also the times kolarov had to play as a CB was down to Pep decision, no one else!
If I am to summarize or conclude on your lady post you are actually blaming Peps failure on is players age,right?
Nihilist: There's a reason why your peak in football is widely regarded as being between 26-28 as an outfield player.
Once you hit 29, you're old. Once you hit 30 as a winger or speedy striker, you're already on your way to the scrap heap. Target men strikers, Defensive Midfielders and Centrebacks who don't have to run as much can last till 33-34 max. Then you have the consummate professionals with good genetics like Lahm, Ororo, Giggs, Lampard, and Ibra who can eke out a decent level of performance before finding their way to America.
Football at coal tar level is brutal on the body let alone football , let alone top level. Ask Batistuta why he once asked a doctor to amputate his legs, or Crespo that has almost no cartilage left in his knee. Just look at Rooney or Zabaleta with white hairs in their beard and nothing left naturally on their chrome domes - them never even reach 35 sef.
I do agree with certain aspects of your post however I will need to address the areas of your post I don't agree with later today.
Kindly say yes or no to this qxn pls.....
Do you think Pep failed to win a single trophy last season solely due to the age of his players? YES or NO please...
Nihilist: You can't compare basketball or athletics to football sorry.
The impact on the body is not the same. Not even close.
Basketball is a start and stop game by default , and that's not even factoring in 4 breaks in play, and numerous time outs. And they only play for 48 minutes.
100m athletic race is done in 10 seconds.
Don't compare people who run 10km per game to someone that rims 4km per game.
By default footballers in the EPL do at least double the work of Basketballers and almost 10000% of what 100m sprinters do, with far fewer breaks.
Keep your comparison to football only.
And for the record, i agree 100% football is a young man's game. Especially in this day and age. Some players with great genetics and a strict diet and physical regimen can delay the process - but to compete at the top level where city is, ultimately youth is a key factor.
Good points raised however what age brackets are you referring to as youths here?
hoopLA: Ogbeni tell us the reason why your Pep is preparing a second bid for a 29 year old Jonny Evans and stop pretending to be an ostrich though the resemblance is quite uncanny.
All this forming intellectual intelligence won't take you anywhere.
Tomorrow you will want people to take you serious when you sound and look like gorimapa.

Vanquay: You call yourself a top club but you are here chasing clubs to sign one of your dissident Players...A real top club would have discarded Costa before the league started...All these London Dipshits have a rather exaggerated sense of grandeur...You can't act like this under respected Managers like Ferguson or Mourinho, Contes respect Comes from the Juventus Contra and Italian Mafia so please tell him "Its a far place from Home Pendejo"
Give this Nikka the Malouda treatment until he begs!
Omo...Maloudas crime self na just lost in form o! I read he could be fined as much as 3million soon. I go see as the gangster from Brazil go cope with him paper getting thin real fast

donjazet: AC Milan are literally on fire now. I believe they have a shot at the league this season.
Can you pronounce the name of the club they are playing against? The match is as boring as fvck bro I am not sure AC Milan will compete for the league this season probably next season to be sincere.
raumdeuter: Age doesnt matter but count how many times you tried to refer to Costas age. WOuld you be this worried if Costa was 20yrs and not 30?
I agree age doesnt matter does it?
I don't care if Costa turns 1million years tomorrow dayo. All I give a fvck about is for him to fvck off cfc. Simples!!
Nothing in my post suggested we can't win with 30plus players....I don't know why you are busy jumping upandan here!
The clear difference btw you and I is that you are willing to write off every player bcuz they turned 30 while i am not willing to do so. You are willing to use age as an excuse to support your selfish interest and claim of fraudiola not winning a teaspoon while i am against it. And..if you have any decorum left you won't try to twist my post to score cheap points Bros.
If he is fat at 30 and unfit to play a game of soccer, how long do you think it will take him to become fit again at that age?
Dude ain't ibramovic who is extremely disciplined. Two seasons ago he came back to camp looking like a pregnant woman after drinking and whoring in Dubai. How do you think he will turn out after 2seasons of no serious training or soccer matches and at the age of 30plus?
By the way , I believe Costa to be using Brazilian football age and 30years for him could be 41years as his real age.
Funlordjnr: All Conte's fault....see how we handled ronaldos exit or beckhams.....they should have simply given this man a 6 month spike in wages with the option of having a pre contract signed with Athletico and a goal bonus incentive to galvanize him and watch how he would have been flying up and down!
its a world cup year? The guy wants a shirt? Athletico and he himself knows that nothing can pop till january....why una coach and board come carry shotgun shoot una selves for face knowing fully well that the parallel markets for strikers of his range are astronomical this summer? I'm only seeing aces up in Costas hand so far.....now na court levels?
Ronaldo and Beckham were not cvnts like Costa! Just imagine say na conte use boots use scatter Costa head instead of fergie wey scatter becks head.....imagine wetin go follow next...! Na text msg naim conte send o! Imagine say Rooney openly use jersey stone fergie etc.....
Costa is just a pure animal. Nothing else to him....
I am happy it is heading to court soon. Hopefully the case gets to drag out for awhile or the ruling goes against the cvnt so we can relegate him to training alone till he runs out his contract and grows fat all over at the age of 30plus.
Nihilist: That guy is in Spain lighting his cigar from the flames of the bridges burning behind him.
Dude has been reportedly fined 300k and didn't even flinch.
He's not coming back.
Costa is a real cvnt sha
The perfect revenge for me is to make him miss out of the world cup next year. I don't know how this can be achieved but I will be happy to see it happen.
I also think the legal action from the club against him is also a welcomed one. Him joining madrid should be made one of the most difficult deals by the club.
I will also prefer he runs out his contract with us while he gets fat around the waist and belle, by which time he would turned 30plus of age. I will like to see what his career will look like afterwards.
