"Urban myths"? C'mon CAM, you can do better. Surely, if you're looking to recruit an older player you look at his history. If it shows a record of sustained injuries you have to ask some questions.

Admittedly cost plays an important role, but if you've set out your intention to recruit "Championship quality" you have to answer the criticism when it doesn't work.
