Steve Morison feels Cardiff City must bridge the gap between the old and the young in this summer's transfer window to allow the burgeoning Bluebirds Academy aces to develop at the right time.
Cardiff's squad at the minute is one of extremes, with half the players pushing 30 or past that landmark, while the other half are almost all eligible to turn out for Darren Purse's under-23s.
There are some exceptions, with Ryan Wintle, Perry Ng and Dillon Phillips in their mid-twenties, but Morison believes there is still too much of an age disparity.
