As we approach tonight's friendly against Ashford Town (Middlesex) at Alfredian Park, let's meet the players who are currently in the club, starting with the goalkeepers.

Robert Lovegrove
Age: 27 Height: 5'11" Weight: 185
Current Ability: 0.5 stars
Potential Ability: 5.0 stars
Strengths: Jumping 12, Communication 11, Handling 11, Command of Area 9
Weaknesses: Aerial Ability 3, First Touch 3, Throwing 3
I like Robert's ability to organize our back line, but otherwise he's a very ordinary goalkeeper. Incidentally, how is it that a player who is already 27 years old could have such a huge upside?

Old post, but I believe that goalkeepers peak in their early to mid 30's.
