Cole and Sheringham also had a good partnership wen they played together
Remind me of Romario e Edmundo
Trust Cole was the most underated had a good partnership with cantona/yorkey/sherimgham/and even briefly ruud
Even tho the latter were all bought to replace him
If he was around now he'd be a £50m striker

Sick partnership!
United were truly scary these times.
Out of all the 90's English Cfs(Fowler, Collymore Shearer, Le Tissier, Wright,Ferdinand) where would people rank Cole?
Le Tissier was AM
I was one of those who were pissed at the money spent on Yorke and even more angered when he was partnered by sheringham and then solskjaer
But was happy when Cole came back into the side and started banging
They had sick link up but I don't believe 1 bit that they never worked on it
Remember cole scoring a few overhead kicks and attempting them and Yorke started to follow was clear they had been practicsing
Ferguson says in his book that they practised EVERYTHING together. Finishing, dummies, runs etc
If cole was an uncle tom like ferdinand/wright hed be fighting with shearer
Sick partnership!

In terms of a goalscorer or a footballer?

as a goalscorer the stats are there for everyone to see
As a footballer
Fowler
Collymore
Shearer(post 2 knee injuries otherwise he would of led this list)
Cole
Wright
Ferdinand
Watching that yorke Nd Cole vid makes me smile.
Ledges
That list Porchy put up is about right IMO.
With that said I would only entertain an Arguement for having Shearer over Cole in that side.
I say this whilst having the opinion that Fowler IMO was better than both I'd just have Cole over him.
Cole is my favourite footballer ever
Pisses me off that he doesn't get the credit he deserves. Pisses me off more that we all know why too. A player who was a great goalscorer and a scorer of great goals. Had every type of finish in his locker. Won all there was to win in the club game too.
What I often think about though is what would've happened if Fergie had got Collymore instead of Cole. People talk about Gazza and the change that would've had for him. Collymore could've been a very very serious player in the right circumstances.

A lot of people believe Collymore was the most naturally talented striker of that generation.

Course they did.
Cole always seemed like the odd one out at United, when Yorke came in it helped him find his smile, Yorke's personality seemed to take the edge off Cole he seemed happier and easier within himself.
When people are that close off the pitch it's gonna show on it. Cole be and a much more all round forward, personally I think
It was because he never saw Yorke as a threat he saw him as someone who "if I create chances and goals for him, it'll be good for both of us" whereas with Ole and Sheringham it was, "if they score more than I do, I'll be out of the team"
Yorke's influence was huge on him as it was on everybody else.
The two of the most underrated players in premiership history. Cole is remembered for Hoddle's comments but check his scoring record and you'll wonder if what Hoddle was saying was true how much better than Shearer was he. Considering he didn't take penalties or free kicks.
Would only take Ruud over either of them.
