I for one can not wait to get rid of Joe Cole never understood why we took him on our books and for 90.000£/week

Because Purslow heard the furore at the World Cup but had to offer him a big wedge at a time when we didn't look a very attractive proposition for top players. We even had to suck up to Jova when he started having second thoughts and I think his big wage was maybe part of that. We couldn't afford to be rejected over the ownership issue by a player of his low stature.
 
Would be a good transfer for us but not good for spurs!!!!

Parker is a big fish in a small pond IMO, a player who does well at smaller clubs but wouldn't do well at a big club.
Much like Roy Hodgson as a manager.
 
Last year everybody bar none was calling for Capello to play him with Gerrard in the World Cup. So I think it's safe to say the same people thought Cole and Gerrard in the same team was a brilliant idea, not just Liverpool fans.

Maybe it didn't work out because he missed London more than he realised, maybe not getting a good start, maybe being snubbed at the World Cup, maybe any combo. But this season must've been the worst in his career so I wouldn't judge by one season at a new club.

He could regain his form next season. He could fit right into a Spurs team. But he'll have no resale value if he doesn't.

Although i will be glad to see him go, i completely agree with what you say sir!
 
My enemies got money, so y'all should watch how I play it
They never know we enemies until they hear me say it
Til they kid's on the phone sayin, "Please daddy pay it"
Til they brain's on the floor, mixed on the pavement
High-class elegance, you respect or you hiss
You go against you'd rather piss on an electrical fence
It's strategic, how these niggaz want you to think
You'd be surprised, who'd be the one to put you to sleep
Why you stink?
 
I think I could've done as much as Joe Cole this season. Difference is, I'd play for £90 a week. I'm only 21 too, so I've got a good decade left in me. So if you're reading this Damien, get in touch...
