See it's even public now
If they paid 21 mil for SWP then cole at a similar age and an established England int is worth more. Chelski have just spatt he dummy out.. they'll fork out as that's all they have. Cash. No class.

Either they cough up or he stays an Arsenal player, simple really.

If anyone disagrees then please give me a list of left backs which are better, with better stats (assists/goals/age International appearances and market value etc). If they want one of the best in the World in that position then they have to pay the price for him, not some cut price fee because its an English club they are buying from

If I was Arsenal I'd tell them the price has just gone up.

the best left back is gianluca zambrotta twice the player cole is and chelsea could have got him for 8.75 million.

wtf has 30 got to do with it? Cafu is very active up the flanks and hes a smidge older than 30 Chelsea were happy to buy Roberto Carlos as second choice to Cole and hes 33. Doesnt look like he wants to leave Real though so Chelsea obviously turned their attention back to Cole.
For what its worth I think Cole is defo leaving, he didnt even feature in Arsenals team photo for this season yesterday. That speaks volumes for me. They know Chelsea have the money theyre just going to hold out. Cant see Chelsea changing their target at this stage into the talks.

i'm not saying cole is a bad player far from it but is he really worth 25 million and cole has acted very poorly imo towards arsenal and i'm not sure if i really want a player like that at the bridge.
