I think Kolo is the right age, JD is young, and Gallas and Silvestre are experienced, add to that brining back Senderos and I think we have the right range of ages at the back.... We dont need a single purchase, however, if Wenger absolutely had to buy someone, for me it would be a at-his-prime (26-29) central defender who is tall and aerially combative. Not the shorter Gallas/Toure type. We Definitely don't need a single midfield or foward purchase.KY said:Something Feanor said in the Villareal match thread made me think of something and i remembered this thread...
Here's the ages of our attacking midfielders: arshavin 27,Rosicky 28, nasri 22, Walcott, 20, wilshere 17. And strikers: Ade 25, Eddy 26, RVP 25, bendtner 21, vela 20. Looking at that age group, we're pretty much set in terms of attacking force for the next 10 years! Even if walcott decides to become a striker, we still have merida or lansbury or barazite who (can) make it. IMO we have more than enough experience, exuberance and all that despite what the media call us (immature, too young etc..). We have players at their peak and those still peaking, we're definitely set.
Only thing that struck me as funny was central midfield and central defense. Midfield's too youthful while central defense is too old (other than djourou of course, but you need a pair...not just one...)
