He is 35 and injury prone - good keeper though
It is a long contract, agreed.
I think they've tried to compensate for his drop in wages by handing out a contract stretched over many years.
A good keeper no doubt, but personally I'd question whether he's the type of keeper who does get better at 35+. Despite recent popular opinion, GKs don't all improve into their late 30s, in fact some are finished by their 30s. I also suspect that many of those that do improve in their 30s, tend to be the larger types, like VDS 6ft 5, rather than the smaller more agile shot stopping ones like Given.
Anyway, yes an attractive signing for them, no doubt, but personally I wouldn't say it's a guaranteed total success; especially given his age, the length of contract offered, his inactivity over recent years and his past injury record.
