Quite a high average age though.

Your right but there is some serious talent being over looked. Not that any would necessarily break into the starting 11 however someone like Bruma, josue or Pizzi upfront would give a different and probably better option than Postiga.

Probably for the best that Postiga isn't in the squad then.


He actually is in the squad, the list is wrong in the opening post.
