Retro-Fred: Cole 1995-1998
What would the reaction have been like on here if Fred existed then?
Would he have been slated for missing simple chances, would posters be pining for a different striker and complaining about the record fee? Or would most have saged him as being a quality striker for us? |

He improved as soon as Eric retired. Those 2 did not really fit together, which is strange given how easily Cole formed partnerships with most other forwards he played with, pre and post Utd.
94/95-he looked good in those 18 games. No Eric. 95/96-Poor season. 96/97-broken legs. 97/98, excellent season, a highlight would be his destruction of Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in the cup. |

must have learned from cantona, though, because he started scoring cheeky chips as well as poacher's goals. |

Fans today are worse though and more impatient so I wouldn't want to imagine tbh I guess a majority would be wanting him dropped and shipped off as ‘deadwood’ already Quote:

Spends a lot of time in Abu Dhabi these days, although I've still not found him despite my efforts. |

I'd have given anything to see them together for even just a season. |
