The DEFINITIVE English football banter thread

I'm pleased, big Cole fan, I really hope it works out for him at Liverpool he does want to play central though, just don't know how it would work.

Really?

I've always envisaged him as this brutal attacking force at the sides of the pitch.

Has a world-class cross on him and some amazing technique. He needs to stick to the wings.

Not sure why you loaned him out. I was really gutted when he went to Liverpool - it looked so certain he'd be coming to the Lane. :/

Hope he gets back on form though, one of the first up-and-comers when I was a kid, and I remember my uncle coming around and telling me there was this new guy at West Ham who was going to be the midfield equivalent of Michael Owen. Haha.

And because no one will take him

A Championship Stoke didn't even want him

His contract is to big for a championship side to take the risk,plus he never wants to leave so we are stuck with him

Yeah he's always wanted to play central and even more so now he's lost a yard of pace. Seeing him at Lille he can still do a job out wide.

Loaned him out cause he lost his form and needed to play weekly, it was for the best cause he was good and is gonna come back fresh.

Decent squad player really though, does his job well enough.
