Cole Stays

So, after all the huffing and puffing, tooing and froing, Ashley Cole has signed a one year extension to his Arsenal deal.
Still, for 70 grand a week, who wouldn’t?
I think this basically means we’re going to give the tumultuous Cole/Arsenal relationship a year to settle down, and if it still hasn’t, he’ll be out the door.
Meanwhile, Arsene has spoken out about meeting Baptista in Brazil, saying, “We approached Sevilla first. At some stage you have to speak to the player. You do it because you have to know if the player wants to join you. When you’re close to ending negotiations with the club, you have to know if you have to put a million more in.”
Well, that suggests he just might want to join us, at least…
