http://home.skysports.com/transferarticle.aspx?hlid=413287 Cole seals Pompey move By Paul Higham - Created on 31 Aug 2006 Portsmouth have completed the signing of Andy Cole from Manchester City for an initial fee of ￡500,000, which could rise up to ￡1 million. The former Manchester United and Newcastle marksman has penned a two-year deal at Fratton Park as he joins Harry Redknapp's South Coast revolution. The 34-year-old joins David James in swapping Eastlands for Pompey and is relishing the prospect of another two years at the top. "It's an opportunity for me to play for another two years and I hope to do my best for Portsmouth football club, score a few goals and get the club into the top ten which is what they're aiming to do this season," Cole told his new club's website. Cole says that he is looking forward to joining former team-mates and friends who have also moved to Portsmouth as Redknapp looks for a vastly improved showing from Pompey this term. "I know Jamo (David James), I know Sol (Campbell) and I've played with David Thompson as well which is always important when you come to a new club because you can fit in straight away. "I know the club are trying to push forward, buying players and trying to start something new and I want to be a part of that." 港嘴本季轉會走"家有一老 如有一寶"風 XD 而且都是在花費極少的情況之下完成 能不能夠在本季衝擊到以往的那幾家英超強權我不知道 不過我對他們給予樂觀的祝福與期待!! XD 另外我很喜歡Cole訪談中的發言 沒有噁心灑狗血的說一些"加入港嘴是我從小以來的夢想"...的客套屁話 簡單的針對目前港嘴現況以及他的工作目標做發言 (score a few goals and get the club into the top ten...) 相較一些口無遮攔,眼睛長到頭頂的正太發言 老將們給人感覺踏實多了... 老將加油!! --
