How much longer will Ashley Cole last at the club?

I think his days are numbered. Let's face it, you can count the
number of good games he's had for us on the fingers of one foot.
Bridge always looks good when he comes in for him. Now there's talk
in the Independent that Capello fancies Bridge over Cole for the
England spot - with the feeling Grant is planning on going the same
way

Flog him to Madrid if they'll still have him, I say.

I used to be a massive fan of Bridge - but I just feel he relies too
much on his left foot. He doesn't even have the confidence to use his
right foot.

Agreed on A Cole though, he can bugger off.

Bridge has always been a far better fullback than Cole

I think a lot of people are of that opinion, me included. It's just a
shame he's had a couple of really poor games for England recently when
not fully match fit.

I noticed in the match against Everton that Bridge rarely
goes up to the corner to cross the ball in. He more often
than not cuts in and puts in poor balls.

Defensively, that is certainly true.

So Ashley Cole reckons that they all want to play for the Ar Funny how they've only been able to attract a 30+ German keeper then, isn't it? While both us and Chelsea have actually been *signing* players rather than just talk about it. In your dreams, Ashley. In your dreams. Utd and proud o

Robben in, Cole out? Looks like we're going to be signing Arjen Robben, haven't seen much of him! Also, rumours are Cole's going to put a transfer request in. IMHO, I wouldn't be worried if Cole goes. He's not enchanted himself to me with his theatrical diving when people tac

Is Carlton Cole On Loan Or Did We Sell Him? Why don't we bring him back for FA CUP/League CUP Matches? He isn't doing much or getting much time for Westham?

A Small Club ? Is it just me, but with all the transfer news from the other prem teams. and little from us. Are we now becoming a small club with no budget and only history to look back on. It's really quite ironic, that the mass of umbrage felt by most blues when a gre

Chelsea are a big club NOT Tickets for the Blackburn game are apparently on general sale! lol. :)
