terrific read.

In his exciting autobiography, Avarice And Arrogance, Ashley insists that Arsenal “fed him to the sharks” over the affair. Unkind souls might have wished that this was a literal, rather than metaphoric, statement. But I suspect Ashley would have whined even a tiger shark into submission.
I wish I had 30 million quid lying around. I would immediately buy Ashley Cole from Arsenal, thus ending the player’s sad torment. I would set him to work around the house, cleaning out the gerbil’s cage, sweeping up leaves, hoovering and so on. And he would be a wonderful ice-breaker at parties. “What’s that whining thing up on the mantelpiece?” guests would inquire, intrigued. “That’s the former Arsenal and England full-back, Ashley Cole,” I would reply, proudly. “And that’s his missus in the downstairs loo. We use her as a toilet roll-holder.”

As I said before, the only thing Arsène is responsible for is getting the right result for the club. Politics and everything else take a back seat to that. He will only care about having the strongest team he can possibly play.
There are no in-betweens regarding Cole staying or going. Cole is either an Arsenal player or he isn't. The only reason Arsène would not play Ashley was if he felt that the player could not be 100% focused on his performance or was not yet in the right physical condition - not to try and avoid making him cup-tied in any prospective transfer.
If he is an Arsenal player and Arsène feels he is able to be an important factor in achieving his aim of getting the right result then I promise you, he will play.
