    I found it quite interesting, when we played barcelona last season, I think only 2 players (Commons and Matthews) were under 6 foot tall. Now with another big guy coming in, what is our average height of a possible starting 11??

    it must be somewhere like 6 foot 1...

    And this might help us in europe. We might not be as technical as other teams, but physically we are definately a stand out. Get in a 6 foot 4 + Cb and we are Done

    Depends on the team really...A team containing Matthews, Kayal, Brown, Commons, Forrest and Hooper is going to be Smaller than a team containing Lustig, Wanyama, Ledley, Sammy, Rogic and Balde.

    Well he probably was when watt had his debut, but at 18/19 what is still growing and is now 6 foot I thinks. Stokes 5 ft 11.

    Me believes Watt could actually still grow up to 6 ft 2 maybe?? (I grew till I was 22 I think..)

    Highly doubtful mate. Only late bloomers continue to grow into their 20's. Most lads stop growing between 16-18, some, like myself, stopped when we were 14 - I was an early bloomer but :smiley-laughing002:

    Still think he can gain an inch however.

    Those tags!! Haha. Aye, watt is quite tall now. Its quite cool that even our biggest team still have great technical ability and use the deck. Our smallest are also strong, for example Hooper,commons,kayal can all hold a player at arms length.
