NOT MUCH news coming out of Arsenal in recent days.
But here is an ANR scoop : Ashley Cole is 100% fit and has travelled to Madrid for tomorrow night’s game.
Would Arsene Wenger take him if he was not going to play him?
No.
Definitely not.
Ashley Cole will play.
If he is 100% fit, and I’m assured he is 100% fit, he will play on Tuesday night and mark David Beckham.
_____________________________________________
CORRECTION at 4 pm Monday : Cole thinks he is fit but Arsene says he has only had one hour’s training with the team.
Cole is NOT in the 18-man squad.
Jose Reyes has recovered from Faye’s two-footed assault at Bolton.
