Some older players bring more than their physical contribution to the team. Chris Sutton was not around for very long but he had a presence about him which helped the team.Pirese waste of space.

He was brought in when we were very thin on the ground due to an horrendous injury list. It was at the wrong end of his career obviously but he helped us out when it was needed.

Just a solid experienced head who would come in for pitch time and be an asset in training and no problem to the squad.Micah Richards type experience and influence isn't necessary but 2 of those 3 could have hung around.

What a silly decision a new contract was.
