Yeah, and apparently Cole is asking for Â£5m a year (which was enough to put the y**s off).... if we paid Campbell that 7 years ago, I can't see it being a problem now.

The money you save from a transfer fee(he would cost Â£15-20m if he was under contract) you pay the player in wages.Simples

As soon as Mourinhio sign for Real, he will sign for them.

An Englishman....that would shut people up who say we're a bunch of foreigners!

I think he would be a great signing for us and if he's settled in London then he wont need to move...West Ham to Chelski to Arsenal.

Arseblog is also reporting a source with the same info on Joe Cole if you take a look

I'm not convinced this is true, but Joe Cole's contract presumably expires on that date? I don't think you can announce a transfer to another club in the same league until your contract actually expires.

His free to talk to other teams so I can't see why not. It does seem very Arsenal's style (class) to annouce something once the contracts expired.

Take Chamack we only annouced the deal after the French league had finished.

An odd but welcomed sigining. Has experience, English etc....J.Cole and Wilshire in the same team?!

who's going to be the first to get an Arsenal shirt with "COLE" printed on the back. Never thought I'd see the day.

Not a bad hand-me-down though Sid!

Would be a good signing for me, english right age, better than what we have.

Unfortunatly i seriously cant see wenger buying a player in this position. I mean we have arshavin, nasri, rosicky, walcott, wilshere, vela.

A good point.....wilshire might be thinking that the possible departures of 1 or 2 of the dwarves that currently fill our midfield would open the door for him but if joe cole arrives where would that leave him ? Back to square one I would suggest or maybe back further than he stands now cos at his age joe cole wouldnt be a short term signing either

I know it seems that I am almost on my own here (nothing new there then

) but I just cannot see any logic to this move

I have always believed him to be over-rated and he has failed to establish himself as a regular under the last 3 chav managers which suggests a lack of confidence in him but the bottom line for me is that he does not fill a need for us and would be another wenger prototype signing - small check, lightweight check, versatile check, free check, more hype than substance check

I do not mind at all. We need the numbers and with Ramsey out for a while it would be ideal.
If we are going down the Barca road then we need players who can hold up the ball and still create at the same time, especially against the "park the bus" teams.
Sure Cole could replace Cesc but imagine Cole being out Iniesta and Cesc being Xavi, it would be perfect.

Plus seeing as we dont have enough reserve players to play in the carling cup then players like Denilson, Diaby e.t.c can play that competition next season.
