The_Flash 1,144 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 It's a real shame I would have liked him to stay but I'm not that surprised that he hasn't been offered a contract. It really is a shame I liked him and thought he was a great player, ah well don't know what to say Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,909 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I just really hope he's replaced with a worthy player.We'd have many of the same problems next season with 2 fullbacks who contribute nil going forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilvorak 3,734 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I think we're selling him short calling him just a "Chelsea legend" he's one of the greatest players of ALL TIME in my eyes. Blue-in-me-Veins and Bir_CFC 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think we're perfectly capable of winning the league with Azpi at left-back and Ivanovic at right-back.The latest rumour is that Ashley was offered a contract but on severely reduced wages and combined with the lack of playing time he simply wasn't interested which is fair enough. JT accepted his pay cut and Lamps is apparently mulling his options over which also include his wife's media career. All rumours though.

MrBlueGuy 1,552 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Imagine he went on and become the best LB in BPL again for Liverpool, that would be Pirlo style fuck up by us, even worse than Milan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinda want it to happen, kinda don't.Best solution for me would be whoever we sign to replace Cole or Dave step up and have a great season as well so Cole isn't missed. Then we win the BPL and Liverpool only finish in top 4 so in theory Cole's absence doesn't make that much difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All those teams will pay him top money for TWO years. He's as good as gone.:/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara 15,149 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I said a few days ago I didn't see him staying, and tbh, he shouldn't.Mourinho didn't give him some bad treatment as some here implied. Azpili played better than him at the end of the day and that's what got him in the team.That doesn't take anything away from what Ash is to his club, what he's done and what he means to us.I think he was struggling a lot with the defending when the matches piled up. At the end of the season he was able to play well because he was well rested, but the age seems to have caught up with him. He seemed out of breath quite enough times before Azpili displaced him.I'm sad he's leaving, but at the same time I think there was no point of keeping him if he could still do something somewhere else (in Mourinho's system he wouldn't have much of a chance).I also don't get the Lampard comparisons. Lamps had a better season than Ash did. I'm not saying we should give Lamps a new contract, but he wasn't as out of form as Ash was at some points and then there were the injuries too. I wouldn't be surprised if Lamps leaves or if he stays, but it was sort of obvious Ash was leaving.We may replace the player, but replacing the man will be difficult. I wish him the best and I'm very thankful for everything he did for us in those 8 years. Proper legend, he's left as one of us.
