Yeah easily..... doh

I didn't realise Cole was out of Contract either, he has been a great servant to the club even though he may have been in the news for the wrong reasons in recent years.

Kolo Toure an absolute world class defender, Michael Owen great when fit, Gallas another world class player, Di Santo at Wigan, Duff, Senderos and Arshavin all quality players.

I just can't understand why clubs are allowing this talent to leave for free.

Do u actually believe that kolo toures world class and di santo and senderous are quality or are you joking??

Never heard of Kolo Toures or Senderous.

But the players that I mentioned are quality and have proven it at the top level. To state that they are not quality players would be a matter of opinion, not proven by the level that their careers reached.

Kolo Toure has made 103 internation appearances for a National Squad that has actually been more of a contender for World Titles than England in recent years.

Shaun Derry would do a job!

Do we need more older guys on the books though, could be another Kilbane.
