This forum is very weird, they rather focus on fashion sense then football. He is quality, he is old, but quality. But guess what? We have been doing fine getting old freebies for years now, Pirlo, Evra, Barzagli etc. Who cares he will get 3 year contract? But better then anything else, this saves our transfer funds and priorities to bigger things, retaining Morata, getting big upgrades in midfield. Instead of stretch ourselves with too many needs at once. Like Evra, Alves will fill in for couple or seasons until we find our version or top young Sandro on the right. It's a win win.
