England players received a heavy dose of verbal abuse at
the weekend; however Ashley Cole believes he will be on the end of
worse tirade when Chelsea take on Arsenal in
December.
The failure to reach Euro 2008 saw fans up and down the country boo
those that represented England in their 12 qualifying games.
However, Blues left-back Cole is sure that when his side travel to
The Emirates on 16th December, the home fans will give him a much
more hostile reception.
The 26-year-old missed last season's trip to North London through
injury, but he insists that this time round he is eagerly
anticipating coming up against his old club.
Love
it
"Compared to what happened to the England guys, I am sure I will
get much worse when I go back to Arsenal," Cole said in the Daily
Mail.
"But I am used to it, and I am looking forward to the game. I want
to go there and play them because I did not get to play there
earlier this year.
"I will go there and front up. I am a grown man. They (the Arsenal
fans) threw money at me at Stamford Bridge, and that was bad, but I
get that every game. I love it.
"It would be nice to go there and shut some people up. It's going
to be tough though.
Reception
"To be honest, I am really not bothered about the reception I will
get, even though I know the crowd will get on my back.
"I don't think I have anything to prove to them. They know how good
I was when I was with them and what I did for the club. It is not
about that.
"Of course Arsenal still means something to me. I don't hate the
club or the players.
"I love the club, but it has finished for me there now. I need to
look at myself and Chelsea and do as well as I can and win as many
things as I can here."
