Smaller, nuggety £#%&!ers like Robben, Sánchez more likely to keep it going than hefty builds like Bati, rvp, Rooney etc

all this talk of age in the sanchez thread?

meanwhile, arsenal are "looking at" malcom (20), richarlison (20) and... um... mkhi (suddenly sanchez doesn't seem past it).

Wouldn't that only be a problem if his horse needed a leg amputated?

Could also be a problem if he wants to stay atop his horse and avoid being trampled to death tbf
