what does everyone think now?

I always believe that you need four decent strikers in a side as Liverpool (Owen, Heskey - laugh!, Baros, Diouf) and Arsenal (Henry, Wiltord, Kanu, Bergkamp).

Last season we had Ruud, Ole and then we tried to play Scholes up there with Forlan being a little to new.

I thought we should have waited a bit as Scholes wasn't in the form to threaten Cole. I know he wanted to leave, but did it effect us?
 
I thought we let him go too early before we had a replacement & I still think we need to fix it in January. I think Fergie let him go for sentimental reasons 'cos Andy wanted to get in the England squad. Pity, we could have done with Andy when Ruud was injured earlier this season. We'd probably be 10 points clear by now!

Nor me.

Andy Cole played in a side that was so good going forward, and had such a brilliant midfield, that any half-decent striker would have scored goals. But any complete striker would have scored a lot more.

I was just thinking the same thing......

I have to say that Andy Cole is the best striker ever in the history of the game, and we should never have sold him, but kept him as our main striker for every match, never putting him on the bench. Ruud and Ole would be better off cleaning Andy Cole's boots.
