How highly do you rate Ashley Cole?

Defensively is there a better full back around?

Only Maldini betters him IMO.

Bacary Sagna

Starting to show his age and lose the legs

would go down as one of the best.

Behind Marcelo.

Michel Bastos wins this.

Cant even win that competition.

Ok ok, we get it, Robinho prefected human cloning.

Ash is still the best LB in the world, I do not doubt that. A few more years and I feel he will become a Chelsea legend too.

If he was offered to any team in the world 99 out of 100 of them would take him in a heart beat.

I'd take a paralyzed traffic cone in a vegetative state over marcelo

A.Cole is declining. I agree with RG, he will go down as one of the best because he has been the best LB for a good few years now, but I also think that he his currently declining.
I mean, when Walcott (who sucks, by everyone's standards) rapes you twice, there's gotta be something wrong.

Or maybe Walcott is actually fantastic? I agree with that assessment

Still the best LB in the world..

Easily the best LB in the world at the moment

He should go down as one of the best ever too. He deserves as much.

And like someone said before, just about any team woud take him in a heartbeat.

Call it decline in quality of LB's, but definetly deserves the acclaim for his brilliant standards and performances he has set for (above all) English leftbacks.

Every player that takes the LB position for England, Chelsea and Arsenal is and will be compared to him.

Starting to struggle more against guys quicker then he is, but still I think he is top still.

Still the best defensively despite some struggles.

Age was eventually going to catch up to him, so go figure right?

And? Why be defensive about it?

Its not a criticism, im answering the question.

Defensively he is the best in the world atm.

Btw second best LB in the world.

i wouldnt trade marcelo or coentrao for cole..

Grosso > cole

I don't see cole with a world cup winner medal :dance:

/troll

OT: he's an amazing footballer, top 3 LB in the world but what a tosser he is..

Ps. Never the second best leftback ever cause maldini takes 1st, 2nd and 3rd spot :bball:
