Philadelphia Union head coach Jim Curtin noted during his weekly press conference on Wednesday how much younger the squad has gotten during his tenure as head coach.
“My math might be off by a little bit but I think we’ve come down almost three years in our team’s age, which is a significant drop, for sure, but that’s what we are,” he said.
Curtin wasn’t wrong — this squad is nearly three years younger than the one he coached his first full season in 2015 — but believe it or not it’s still not the youngest overall based on average age in team history.
