RadioactiveWaste Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Does anyone else remember this exchange on fighting talk: *Defend the indefensible "Like Ashley Cole, vomit is an essential part of my love making" "sometimes you need lube" Went out live on radio 5 live at 11.55am one Saturday. Anyway, not the worst idea and at least we're not giving him a 4 year contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BodminRam Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Not sure how match fit he will be though, not played for a while so maybe we will not see him till next month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millenniumram Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Mental this, he’s 38... but he’s Ashley Cole! Best lb in the world and one of the finest defenders in the prem in his prime. Part of me thinks it could not work out, but the inner kid who watched that Chelsea team under Mourinho wants to see a player of his Stature out in a derby shirt at Accrington. He could well help with coaching as well, god knows that’s needed in defence! Good one for bogle to Learn from too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw him do stand up at a really small pub in Sutton shortly after that, one of the funniest guys I’ve ever seen. A bit blue before lunchtime on the radio though! I think he’s massive in America now.

JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 He's 38. I can't imagine he's kept his pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ram1964 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Wonder if we would get him on a pay as you play contract with a minimal outlay .This would allow him to showcase himself, prove his worth whilst doing a job for Derby without breaking the bank.Don't want another Darren Bent scenario.

Bosshogg Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Just spoke to my mate who is an LA Galaxy season ticket holder. His words..... “Oh wow. Well if you need someone to lock down 1v1, he's your guy. He knows how to position himself. But if he has to chase, forget it. He's lost a step of two. Still, he captained the Galaxy. He has great leadership. He still walks around with old Chelsea notes and studies them. He mentored some young ones here that needed to learn to play defense when players went down with injury.” So if he comes to us sounds like he’ll be good for the squad. He’s a legend so the young defenders would benefit. I very much doubt he has enough pace wise for the championship but positionally he’s still got it.

kingsy1884 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Pretty sure Ian Harte went playing into his late 30s in defense and Graham Alexander. Mainly for set plays i know but Full backs are defenders first. 6 month deal not sure much could go wrong. Get him in as a coach at the end of the season maybe?
