Despite having five Premier League championships and a Champions League gold to his record, Andy Cole has endured a lot of “disrespectful comparisons” since he retired 12 years ago.
Andy Cole, a legendary player for Manchester United, vehemently reacted against “disrespectful” analogies made between him and Darwin Nunez, a forward for Liverpool.
The five-time Premier League champion took to Twitter shortly after Christmas to express his amusement over a post that compared him to the struggling Uruguayan. Nunez was guilty of wasting some golden opportunities for the Reds at the time, which was at a really trying moment for him and Jurgen Klopp’s team.
In 414 Premier League games, Cole scored 187 goals and provided 62 assists while playing for Newcastle, the Red Devils, Blackburn, Fulham, Manchester City, Portsmouth, and Sunderland. Cole believes he deserves more respect and acknowledgment given his outstanding goal total over the course of nearly 15 years of top-level football.
When asked if he is annoyed by the analogies, Cole sneered on behalf of Best Sports Betting Canada in an exclusive interview with Daily Star Sport, “You know what, I’m going to get this right.” “Frustrated? No. You already know what it is—a it’s lack of respect. The problem is a lack of respect, not dissatisfaction.
“This lack of respect has gotten worse and worse over a period of time. Regardless of what people may think of me or what they believe I have accomplished in my career, there are many players who people consider to be better than me but have not accomplished anything close to what I have.
