2nd best in the uk? maybe Best in the world? Nah nt a hope. Also the fact that he is a complete bellend and a rentie is more than enuff to not want him. Plus weve just signed a LB so no need 2 waste cash. Saying that i wouldnt have the cunt if they paid us to take him Sorry, but who are you suggesting is better than him in the UK? Baines? Please don't be daft. As for the world, I'd like you to name just two players that are better than him. Only one that's not far away from him is Lahm. Yes Baines (to think otherwise is daft) Lahm Coentrao Clichy Jordi alba Marcello Even Evra (when he's on form) Next question?

I would like Cole in our squad to let Rio and the lads have a kick at him... sort of like a stress reliever of some kind.

I don't think Clichy is better than Cole bestie, I think Kolarov is better than Clichy rather.
Cole is not the best LB in the world . Not even close. Marcelo is arguably the best in the world for me. Then there's Coentrao, Alba, Schmelzer, Baines, Lahm, Cissokho, Filipe Luis. Cole is getting all the media buzz going because of that fucking Champions League last season. He is not that good IMO.

Great player for the last 10 years - Yes. Best in the world now - No. I was referring to the media going absolute berserk and calling him the best in the world right now and all that gobshite. Never meant to say he's not a great player.

Took this from Opta . Baines in every way seems better than Cole. While cole has contested more in numbers for aerials and ground. Its baines who has more success percentage and he hasn't let that many get past him. If we have to go for a LB, then surely it has got be Baines over Cole

Even if he wasn't an utter cunt I'd still say no. His powers are clearly on the wane. Hopefully Tony will demonstrate again today.

Just out of interest but what do Evra's Opta stats look like against Cole and Baines?
Cole is still a very good left back, not as good as he was but still one of the best and is tried and trusted at the highest level. Alas the guy is a complete idiot, wouldn't be able to play with Rio and would likely shoot Petrucci with an air rifle at Carrington.

Murdered today. Tony v didn't even have his best game but still dominated Cole almost at will. Evra was far better I thought.

i only rate lahm and evra when on form as better leftbacks than cole. regardless of what we think of him as a blend like the other guys when on form he offers a fantastic blend of defense and attack. alba can attack but not so great defensiveley, baines in not in the same class, contretao granted injured but even when fit is not madrids number one, clichy dont even come into it, marcelo is like alba but not as silky, also an absolute hot head

SCHOOLED.

Can we stop talking about this - I hate seeing this prick's name in the transfer section of a United forum. Great left back, but I don't want him anywhere near a red shirt (which is why watching him yesterday was so enjoyable)
