Chelsea fullback Ashley Cole
admits the dressing room is split over ambitions to win the
Premiership title and Champions
League.
"I’d say it’s about half and half," said Cole, 28. "Some players
might want to win the Champions League but winning the Premier
League again is my main aim.
"It would be nice to go to another Champions League final and
hopefully win it one day but, for me, the Premier League is the
best trophy.
"Maybe because I’m English and because I’ve won it twice. It’s
the best league to play in and that feeling you have when you win
it and how the fans are, it’s a great achievement for the club. It
makes players proud.
"It’s a tough old season in the Premier League and it’s only
getting harder. So to win that, you are true champions. Sometimes
in the Champions League I don’t think it’s always the best team
that wins it.
"It depends on how you play on a certain day. In the league you
have to play well week-in, week-out. Manchester United were worthy
champions and we just have to take it."
