Pulis handed defenders Gareth McAuley, 36, and Jonas Olsson, 33, new 12-month deals and described them as the "foundations" of the club, whose players have an average age of just over 29.
"I've spoken to the scouts this week and identified that we need more young, explosive and athletic talent at this club, we have one of the oldest squads in the Premier League," Pulis told reporters on Friday.
It's fine for Pulis to talk about bringing in younger, athletic players, Beefy, but the way we play is not down to the age of the squad. If he brings in younger versions of Anichebe, Lambert, Gardner, Yacob, Sandro and another couple of defenders, we'll still play the same crap. We don't need younger versions of these players, we need different ones.
