I don't no where people have got this philosophy that we won't be signing anyone the wrong side of 30. Yes they've said that it's important to buy players who will have a higher re sale value. But theyve never said they won't sign a 30 odd year old. They said if there's someone who will improve the team they will sign them. One thing is for certain, any older players that do sign will not be on huge amounts of money. Which was of the concerns fsg have with some of the older players on long contracts
Agree it's their philosophy to not spend big on players aged 28 upwards i.e 15mil+
Parker would be 8 mil-10 mil which is a bargain really if we get 2-3 good years from him, then he can become a Viera type figure.
Also Dunk has said we want Parker so we'll be in for him defo, just whether he wants to go to City or spurs if they make the moves for him or us. He's definatley leaving West Ham
