[citygal1]

There's no way that is a correct stat.

Kolarov - 25
Richards - 22
Kolo - 29
kompany - 25
lescott - 28
boateng - 22
pabzab - 26
hart - 23
barry - 29 (got a birthday comin up though)
yaya - 27
nige - 26
silva - 25
milner - 25
tevez - 27
dzeko - 24
vieira - 34
aj - 23
balotelli - 20
swp - 29
jo - 23

Am i missin anybody? Thats just the people off the top of my head

Razak and Boyata - at 18 and 19 I think

average of that is 25

That'll be the average age of our oldest XI to have played this season, not the average age of our players to have made an appearance.

Hart - 23
Zabaleta - 26
Kolo - 29
Lescott - 28
Bridge - 30
Vieira - 34
Barry - 29
Shauny - 29
Yaya - 27
Tevez - 27
Adebayor - 26

I must have missed someone out though because this only comes to just below 28.

A bold assertion, Sir, ... considering it's the Mirror.........oh wait!

Today's tabloid's are the equivalent of The Beano and Whizzer & Chips. If you want news you simply don't look there.
