Glenn Whelan is 35 !! He was also the worst player on the pitch against West Brom and Villa only took control when he was subbed and Hourihane went on. His legs have gone.

Jack Rodwell averages around 20 first team games a season over his entire career and in the last 2 years has only played 12 times. Chris Coleman said his head was gone at Sunderland.

We need to do far better than this to improve the team. The sort of midfielder we should be looking at is Hourihane or Barry Bannan, both of whom could hack it easily in the Premier League.
