I hope not, just look at Saints and the drop off from their older players. Sometimes you need to be ruthless
I get you but Saints have had a lot of players grow old together (Makinson, Percival, Lomax, Walmsley, LMS, Roby etc) and we're not in that position. We have Cooper leaving and then after that there is only really Faz and Isa over the age of 30 and we have a pretty young squad. In fairness I'm not sure I would keep him and would at least like to look around and see if there is a decent (and younger) replacement we could bring in but if he did decide to play on and there wasn't much out there, I wouldn't be against him being a squad player again in 2025. There is also the possibility that he decides to play on elsewhere next year.
