“Once you go Blue, you can’t undo” – Some fans react as England legend picks Chelsea over Arsenal

Ashley Cole favours Chelsea over Arsenal in the race for top four

Speaking on Sky Sports (h/t Daily Mirror), Chelsea legend Ashley Cole picked the Blues over Arsenal in the race for the top four.

The defender made a controversial move when he switched Highbury for Stamford Bridge in 2006. Already a good player at Arsenal, he transcended into greatness at Chelsea.

“For me I think it is too hard to pick, I just hope Chelsea make it.”

He made 338 appearances for us and won eight major honours while at the club. If there was any doubt about where his allegiance lies, that has now been put to rest.

In his defense, although the Gunners are currently seventh, they are eight points adrift, with just six matches to play. Despite winning their last two games, the Gunners have hardly been convincing. If anything, Cole is being realistic.

Cole’s dismissal of Arsenal’s chances came as an amusement for Chelsea fans. A number of them took to Twiter to react to the same. We take a look at a few of them below.
