With all the bad news for England fans recently (Scolari, Rooney, McLaren) it's encouraging that at least one of our top players is returning from injury. According to Arsene Wenger, Ashley Cole will start Arsenal's game against Manchester City tonight, his first start since October. Yep, it's been that long.

If all goes well (and it's time something did) then Cole could play two Premiership games for Arsenal before getting a really stern test against Barcelona in the Champions League final.

Sorry...if flam is out, then Clichy should play. Ash is only going to play for :-
1. himself.
2. World Cup spot.
3. European Champion league medal

and not for arsenal FC. So no Cashley Cole, please.

Nothing wrong with playing for a Champions League medal! But I take your point.

I was wondering... if both Clichy and Flamini were fit who would most Arsenal fans prefer to see start at left back?
