Cole did have a good relationship with Yorke too. I don't think Vic is our Dwight. I'm just looking at the scorers table and wondering if we need to think about Kalou again. You'd expect that Sturridge's inevitable return and the likely arrival of Neymar will push him further down the pecking order. He's only got a year left on his contract. He's 25 and his goal scoring record, despite not being a regular, ranges from 1 in 2 to 1 in 4 for club and country. This season he's scored as many as Gyan, Nasri and Torres and only 2 fewer than Drogba. He's also provided as many assists as Malouda and Saurez. A cheeky bid of about £3.5m might be enough.
Would snap their arm off for that deal. Good player, Kalou.
