maybe now they will give yuri zhirkov a chance....

 

[Max]

Big blow for Chelski.

 

[Mr.T]

Zhirkov isnt a Natural Left back he doesnt really have a place in Ancelloti's formation

 

[unknown111222]

This is great for Arsenal, We have a chance with JT having a rest aswell

 

[Mr.T]

I just realised Donovan(american captain) injured cole and he could? miss the world cup
just like paolo ferriera injured rooney before the last world cup and we all what team knocked England out last time

Zhirkov isnt a Natural Left back he doesnt really have a place in Ancelloti's formation

He actually is, and even said it's his favourite position.
He will fill the void left but it's a massive blow.

 

[Jack Fulham]

I'm sure Nicky Shorey will fulfil the hole in the England team.

Your english is ****** awesome. I thought you would be american or something.(A)

 

[DMF]

Is it just me, or is England's World Cup dream failing before our very eyes (6)

 

[ajw]

Big blow for Chelsea, guess it'll be Zhirkov or maybe Ferriera at LB

I just realised Donovan(american captain) injured cole and he could? miss the world cup
just like paolo ferriera injured rooney before the last world cup and we all what team knocked England out last time

I hope you're not suggesting either was deliberate/purposeful

Most Scandinavians I have encountered actually care how well they type and speak English, whereas many English/American people do not.

 

[Dunc]

Tbh Cole has been one of the best leftbacks in the world so far this season, it's gunna be a big miss, I don't think Wayne Bridge is good enough. Maybe Baines should come in and get some experiance, he is pretty handy on his day. Lets just hope Cashley is fit for the summer.

 

[kevin_mackenzie]

the world cups not till june. i think cole will be back in time anyway. if its only 3 months hes out for.
