Ashley Cole

Ashely! Glad to see him get few minutes.

Btw he probably didnt shave since last game for Chelsea

Was happy to see Ash play again as well. And I love his beard haha.

After Cole came on earlier, not sure where was he playing really. Was like just rotating positions with others since we suddenly saw Azpi and Ivanovic popped up so far in the final third and a bit out of nowhere.

Seemed to play left wing back in a 5 man defense with Matic and Luiz sitting in front of the defense allowing Cole and Ivanovic to push up really high with Hazard and Salah both roaming around.

Haven't seen him in such a long time, I thought it was Baron Davis coming on.

He was actually our number 10 in one of the attacks. I laughed so hard when I saw that!

He was playing in the pivot.

Just curious, was he injured all the time since january?

Because he didnt play bad this season, at least as good as Iva and Mou had no real reason to bench him. Azpi and Cole would fit much better against small teams, but again if he was injured he obviously couldnt play...

Imo Cole is good enough to be backup at least next season, pairing with younger LB (Shaw?) and teaching him few things. But if he isnt in Mou plans, than no point in having him here...

I have feeling if he moves to Rm, he will for some reason become first choice, at least in big games. Thats exactly why we might just keep him for another season. Mou made Cole look like a LB who is not able to play 45min anymore, but I feel he could be useful in big games, even next year. Just remember Lpool game this season, Cole still has ability IMO.

Azpi should completely focus on RB next season and Cole would be superb backup to the new LB.

Enjoyed Cole's new beard in #10 & left back role today while winning 3-0 = YEAH!

(a bit surrealistic really!)

Azpi actually went over to the right wing at one point...it probably confused Charile Adam & co..(when they really didn't need much to do so)

Can see him starting or featuring on Sunday seeing as he will be playing against Atletico

[iseah100 5,612]

Cech

Azpi-Cahill-JT-Cole

Matic-Mikel

Oscar-Willian-Schurrle

Ba.

Reward Ba for what he did. Azpi to the right, Cole needs to get playing time.

Maybe it'd be a good idea to let him play in order to regain some sharpness since he's been out for so long.

[different level 1,056]

WTF, Ash You look like a mini Mr.T!

[mccg 1,528]

Hope he has some sort of decent contribution before we say goodbye and thanks

[Vybz Kartel 1,613]

If he is left on the bench like most papers are saying, its an insult to him especially if it means playing Luiz out of position.

[Vybz Kartel 1,613]

Whats Mourinho's problem with AC3??

[iceman 329]

he would be much useful yesterday
