I’m happy for Cole to leave as soon as possible with his sack of money and hypocrisy. We only got marginally more out of him last year than Newcastle got from Michael Owen. Another trait he shares with Owen is that of prioritizing England above his club. Don’t forget that not many ex-Arsenal players in recent years have successful careers after going, maybe with the exception of van Bronkhorst.

Very true, same as we all said about Paddy last season. Hopefully Cole will ahve the same luck and Chelsea will be relegated for cheating.

Actually no that would probably completely destroy my already brusied and bashed faith in football

I thought the £16 was a clause inserted by Arsenal at the last extension to not let him leave for less than that amount when he asked for the £60,000 a week? Makes you sick to see him bidding at the Beckhams pre world cup party. He gave us so little last year and took so much!

can you imagine the ****in stick he will get if he does sign for chelski??? be ****in awesome givin it too him when or if he puts on that blue shirt and comes to the emirates.

if we are going to talk about replacements for ash then who is seriously in the running?

abidal (was awful at the world cup in my opinion)
chivu (would come at a big price, but no more than ash)
grosso (in my opinion he would be a great signing 28 years old, had a great world cup and wouldnt cost ridiculous amount of money)
chielini ( another great young talent, at juve so a move could be there)
taiwo (this is a nigerian fella i saw a bit of last season and he is speedy as hell and is similar to babayro when he was good)

Even if we get the £25m, I doubt Wenger will spend it all.

No idea, but I hope, and Big Poppa's right in what he says that we don't really know the full facts and that things could well be slanted, that if Cole really has slated the club, that he is sold to the highest bidder. And if that is Chelsea, then so be it. And if he goes on to win the Premiership trophy and gets to celebrate winning it at Highbury next May, then we're all going to want to kill the little sod. But we will have to live with it.

But I hope Big Poppa's right- and that Cole's comments have been taken out of context. I seriously doubt that, though.

If Cole goes, I would think we do need to sign a quality left back, Gael's been here 3 years and spent around 2 years of that injured, Traore is too young and Flamini- God love him- is not a left back. Though there is Justin Hoyte, who spent considerable time on the left for Sunderland last year, I think...

Let's hope so, but I trust you've seen the fixture list?

qs- I agree with your point, but the guy's talking as a Chelsea fan, he woould say that, wouldn't he? Just like we all like to think Didier Drogba's crap compared to Robin van Persie..
