And I'll add....I agreed with Grendel regarding the opinion that Cole shouldn't have started until he was fully fit.
He chose not to notice. It didn't suit the crusade he was on today.

I respect, and understand what you're saying. But by making a direct comparison, you're negating 'at that time'.
That's the crux of the point. At there respective 'times' means you blur the line of comparison.
Not even allowing for the fact that they were different types of player...
It stands to reason.
And Grendel took the majority opinion of everyone on here as a guide...stunning, given he called them 'intellectually bereft'.
....you couldn't make it up :D
I'm not playing Internet points or sides. You might need help, I don't.
Learn to deal with me, it'll make your life a lot easier, unless, of course, you live for this stuff....which given your display today, I think is closer to the truth.
For the second time. Once for Grendel, now for you.
I said you can compare what ever you want. The media loves doing it. In my opinion, it's not valid, given all the criteria I've outlined.
My opinion, your opinion.
I've been witness to the advances in just the last 4 or 5 years here. I asked a friend who trained with Sheffield Utd this year and he said that they had 'the works' when it came to fitness technology.
Not sure why some are getting so bent out of shape about it...
