Wolfcastle Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 3 hours ago, Wolfcastle said: 32 isn't old for a goalkeeper. 2 hours ago, Beth said: But it is though. Dubravka is 35 and he's dropped off a cliff. How many number one keepers in the PL are older than that? Lloris got fucked off from Spurs in his mid 30s and had been shite for a couple of seasons before that. The days of your Shiltons and Buffons playing at the top level till they got to 40 are gone. De Gea is 33 but no one seems to want him either, even on a free. Peter Schmeichel was 32 when he denied us the title. I wish Ferguson had binned him off that previous summer. If 32 is too old for a keeper, given how much later they start that outfield players, they've not much of a shelf life. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell yeah. Let’s get someone who’s ten years younger than our current keeper and is already at the same level so when we win the PL in three or four seasons he’ll be the right age to fit right in the median. ??

The last 10 years make that 29,3 years (median also 29). The 22 years before the average was 31,8 years with a median of 32,5 years. So the point that goalkeepers are starting to be at their best at a younger age, stand. Though it may be a more indication of the age and quality of Ederson in this example But I would say that even the eye test stand. Its more demanding to be a keeper and when they are 30+ they start to go decline. Pope need to be upgraded for sure. In all areas really (injury, footwork, age).

You'll always get outliers (same as outfield players), but he was the 5th oldest first choice keeper in the league last season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
