...and are clearly older than Wikipedia says. Am I the only one who's spent the last few years thinking Johan Djourou was one of those centre backs who just never made it at the top level and was just there as backup to a big English team to finish his career off with a tidy sum of money? I can't be the only one, surely, that didn't realise that he was born in 1987 and has only just turned 27. Seriously what kind of sorcery do some of these players come up with?
So here's my list, add to it if you want: Johan Djourou (1987) Obafemi Martins (1984) Yakubu (1982) Shola Ameobi (1981) Kevin Nolan (1982) James Milner (1986) Theo Walcott (1989)

The last time Olympiakos beat Manchester Utd was in 325BC.
It was 2-1. Aristotle & Plato for the Greeks, Giggs with the consolation for united.

Tony Hibbert is 33... How?
I thought he was 40 for 5 years now.

Phillippe Senderos. I thought he was in his thirties when he was at Arsenal, he's still only 29.

Darren Bent's 30 now and just won't fuck off.
Feels like he was at Spurs, Villa, Fulham, Sunderland and Charlton for 4 years each.

Remember Daniel Nardiello, I remember watching a few reserve games of United's way back when he was touted to be the next big thing along with Richardson and co. before he got a loan move somewhere in the FL turns out that was 11 years ago.
The guy is still plodding along and he's only 31 haha.

Mikel is only 26, thought he'd be closer to 30.

I feel as though that I have been signing Kim Kallstrom on Football Manager for 15 years now and he's still only 31...

Striker options have not gotten lots better since tbh.

Few goalkeepers; Given, Harper, Schwarzer and Friedel all going on, all older than time itself
Neil Sullivans still lurking isn't he? He should call time on his career and make the most of his bus pass

Freddy Adu is 24.
Lennon's the most shocking though. Been around for forever.
