The Real, Actual Joe Cole [Coventry City]

Playing Cole can only be a plea to the owners for more money, Go into the meeting with a DVD Compilation of Cole and they would take pity on Rodgers and allow him to buy a replacement.

They'll just tell him to play the kids

In all seriousness, i don't understand why he doesn't treat the back up team same as the first 11. He has shown a ruthlessness there to **** off highly paid and underperforming players and bing in yoof.

He should be doing the same with the Europa and Drowning and Cole should be nowhere near that first 11 as they are stopping a younger player getting some invaluable experience.

[Lecter]

Fully agree with your last statement

What's happened to him?

[Lecter]

I must admit I never particularly rated him

Always thought he over complicated things and for me he never developed in the manner he should of

I was devastated when we signed him

[Red_Polo]

It's not exactly a bold admission now though is it?

[Lecter]

Not really but I think I said much the same on the day he signed

we all know the score with cole, now. im also sure that brendan does too!
every time that he plays it is at the expense of someone like yesil, assaidi, morgan, pachecho, etc, and for this brendan must be questioned. this is unforgivable

the ONLY time i could understand cole getting ANY game time if if we are comfortably winning and he brings him on for 10-15 minutes at the end to allow him to look good [if possible] and get some interest for a potential move.

He is one of the worst signings this club has done in a long time and the earlier we can get rid off him the better off it will be for all involved parties.

I really hope Lille or Spartak Moscow would be willing to pay 1/2 of his wages and if they are we should just let him go on free and subsidize the rest his wages for the duration of his contract with us.

It is not the best but at this point it is all about control management.

[baitman]

its ****, but less **** than either playing him, or not playing him and still paying him his full 90k a week

My mate played against Joe Cole when he was younger and said he was unbelievable, he also had the pleasure of marking Santi Cazorla in pre season friendly against Villareal and said he might as well of been chasing shadows.

So did you believe him?
