omcfc said:It seems odd that folk are saying "This or that might be a decent way for him to wind up his career"... He's only 29 a couple of days ago. It's not like he's Drogba who's a good 5 years ahead of him. I know he probably wants a move home, but I don't understand this idea that he's somehow winding up his playing days. Good 5 years in him yet.
Do you think? I think a lot of people may be taking Carlos' own words on board when speculating about his career winding up early.
As for the Drogba comparison, in terms of athletic ability and general fitness, which are the best indicators of longevity in a footballer's career, I don't really believe there is a comparison.
