You could have just used football-lineups to get the data.

No, as the lineup changes match by match. You could use the 'most used' lineup as a way of approximating it, but the way I used gives a much more accurate picture... you know, until I add one to the month values...

...that corrected though, it should be very accurate. Simply using the squad as a whole skews the values wildly though.

So yes, it's important to take into account who plays.

It's worth mentioning that the average age of the team is probably skewed downward in previous season by loanees (but we now have a coherent squad in place), and the average age of the squad players who weren't getting regular football has probably dropped massively too. As a club, we're developing good up and coming lads, rather than expensively eking out the careers of late 20-something players who haven't quite made the top grade. Teale. Albrechtsen. Stewart...replaced by Jacobs, OB and Freeman.
