DB11 Posted 29 July 2007 Share Posted 29 July 2007 I'd take him for a season or two... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stinkenzo Posted 29 July 2007 Share Posted 29 July 2007 I'd take him but i'd rather get somebody in who's here for the long haul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DB11 Posted 29 July 2007 Share Posted 29 July 2007 I think the squad needs a player who is used to winning / knows what it is like to be part of a winning side to try and give us that winning mentality etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STUHILL Posted 29 July 2007 Share Posted 29 July 2007 Actually think he's less of a risk than Fowler would have been. Thought he looked class for Brum last year! Would take him for a year deal definately. Would make me feel more confident about our strike force as I am not feeling too good at the prospect of Carl Cort as our No. 9!!!!

Oh, and he's in the top all time Premiership goal scorers. Nah I don't think he knows what it is like to be part of a winning side either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe. Posted 29 July 2007 Share Posted 29 July 2007 is he still the black "flash" of old though; or even the black " bit of a blur " I have no idea, I haven't seen him play really for a while. I guess Bruce wouldn't have taken him no reason. I was really just replying to dannyboy's stupid post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Bob Posted 29 July 2007 Share Posted 29 July 2007 Andy Cole is quality, however he is 35, 36 in October, so his legs are not going to be what they were. He only played 5 times for Birmingham due to injury. He is reported to be on £30,000 a week and does not want to take a drop in wages. So - sorry why did we want him? Because once he was a great footballer or because he is now old, injury prone and overpaid. I think we could be looking for younger talent.

Because once he was a great footballer or because he is now old, injury prone and overpaid. I think we could be looking for younger talent. Andy Cole would be a good signing. Yes, he would. For those in disbelief, strikers are like bike riders. Yes, they are. Truth of the matter is, that if that guy gets the ball around the six yard area, he knows what to do. Period. Yes, he does. He may of lost ten yards of pace but he could still score 15+ goals this season just playing the last half hour of each game. Yes, he could. Will I jump on the I hate old Cole Bandwagon? No, I won't. He's 7 years older than Cort but he's played more than Cort in the last 5 years. Not a bad goal scoring record ratio either. N. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheese Me Posted 29 July 2007 Share Posted 29 July 2007 Would much, much, much rather have had Fowler. Never rated Cole, he always needed five chances before he could get one on target but did manage to get into good positions. Think he'd struggle in our team without real (Champions League or top premiership) quality creative players around him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Reverend Posted 29 July 2007 Share Posted 29 July 2007 Too old now, especially on those wages. Injury prone, rather give Fryatt the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bojimha Posted 29 July 2007 Share Posted 29 July 2007 I'd like to see him hear, just on a one year contract though to see how things worked out. Like another poster said, he looked quality at Birmingham last year and will be an good player to have in this individual. If you watch him closely he's not just a goal scorer, he sets up a lot of moves and encourages good attacking play with his intelligent distribution of the ball.

skegness fox Posted 29 July 2007 Share Posted 29 July 2007 the lad who misses open goals for fun... It will be a poor signing if he comes, he works hard but can't score.I'd like to see an offer go in for Kevin Phillips as i don't see where the goals will come from.
