Yes he's been injury-prone, no he's not getting any younger, but bloody hell, beggars really can't be choosers.
I'd have no problem with him. He'd only need to play 15mins a game for us. He doesn't need to start. With 5 subs it's a different issue these days too. Just bringing him on would scare the defence which we're not going to do at the moment. It'd be good for the squad and the younger players too.
