Cole and Vassell seem to know what the other is doing, call it telepathy if you like but they are a genuine partnership who play off one another superbly.

We desperately need some of that but i can't really see much of a partnership developing between any of our strikers at the moment. I know this has a lot to do with Rafa's preference for playing one-up a lot of the time. Saying that i have not seen any real hint of an understanding between any of our front men. Morientes and Cisse haven't really hit it off as yet.

I still believe that a Crouch-Pongo partnership could work (i know i keep saying this) if given the chance. Is Pongo injured at the moment?

I'm not Cole's biggest fan but i thought he had a couple of solid seasons at Fulham. He goes into my dream team every season (coz he's cheap as cheddar) and always picks up points. He's an underated player.
