Which of the following scenarios would you rather have, come 11pm tonight? Scenario One - We fail to sign any new players today and we have to cope with the strike force we have. Scenario Two - We sign Carlton Cole and nobody else. Vote now!
Number 2. Any player is better than nobody, and I think he has more goalscoring potential than either Lovenkrands or Ameobi, so if we play him over them, it's certainly no worse.
I used to quite like Carlton Cole about 2 seasons back. Looked a real handful and was linked with big money moves to top teams. But now, he is cack!
