Former Aberdeen boss Stephen Glass has confessed there probably was too many "older players" at Pittodrie when he left the hot seat before Jim Goodwin's major revamp.
Experienced first-team stars Andrew Considine, Dylan McGeouch, Funso Ojo and Declan Gallagher followed veteran Scott Brown out of the door this summer, after the former Celtic captain left the Granite City early in Goodwin's tenure. The former St Mirren boss has brought nine new players in at Pittodrie, and admitted he needed a major reshuffle ahead of the first game of the season at Celtic Park.
The Aberdeen boss told Sky Sports: "From my point of view when I came in I thought there was too many on the wrong side of 30. I'm not ageist by any stretch of the imagination but I just felt that when I came in in February there was at least 10 I think, and I want to have squad with a better balance in it, so we've done it.
