We need an andy cole for a season- look what he did!
I know. But the situation with Raul is not as dramatic as the Mail suggests. He's still in talks and team-mates say it's 70-30 that he stays.
I wouldn't want him here to be honest. He will be 35 come summer and he was better last season than now.
He has never played Premiership football (that's the most important difference between him and Andy Cole or Teddy Sheringham).
And we don't need a one-season-goalscorer. That would only delay our problem.
We need to find some young players who can score regularly. We don't need a single player to score all the goals. We need a few different players to do that.
Plus Zaha+Rhodes+whoever would get less wages than Raul would get. He's on huuuuge wages at Schalke.
