The main thing with Cole,and what makes him that bit more special is,unlike Mahrez,who he most closely resembles and could/should replace,that he almost always makes good decisions with the ball and knows instinctively what's best for the team in the final 3rd.His timing and weight of pass also come natural,he really does make the game look easy.
That was evident in the game last night. Knew exactly what he was going to do when he received the ball to score the first.
Second time around he shaped to do the same before playing that delightful ball through. To just hold the ball and wait was brilliant composure.
If we do make the CL final, or indeed need a goal in any remaining game, he is a guy we should turn to. No one would know quite how to defend him. And you would back him to take his chance when he got it.
