In a heartbeat, sure he is at the end of his career but he knows the role inside out after playing for Pep and is as fit as a butchers dog, he can run all day long.
Replacing 4 old with 3 young and one old who happens to be probably the best of his generation and a potential key piece of the plan for Pep at least for one season. No brainer, no talk of a fee so i wonder if there is one or it is just nominal.
This.
Alves is one of the footballing greats in my opinion and still has plenty to to offer.
He isn't reliant on his athletic attributes as he is an incredible footballer.

Could Alves play left back aswell?
Walker, Alves and Walker as our three full backs for this season?
Still the best right back in Europe for me, his performances in the later stages of the Champions League proved that.
Better than Kolarov.
Other than that, no idea.
That last comment is probably the best line on him. Other full backs we have had are more and up and down and when their legs go, that's it. Alves has got a lot to his game. Even if half a yard has gone, then he'll still be a good player. Made me feel more positive about this signing. Thanks!This.

Alves would be good option to have against cannon fodder teams especially, but he can perform in big games too as he proved at Juventus. Delighted with this if he is addition to Walker or some other RB target.
Zabaleta and Sagna weren't released solely because they're 'old'.So we're replacing old fullbacks with...well an old fullback. Great.
