Ask the question in any non-Spanish/English board and you will get the same answer. I'm not saying English players aren't overrated in England, of course they are, there's a financial incentive behind it, but Jordi Alba better than Ashley Cole? You're having a laugh

 

[Deco 20]

Cashley is better in defence, but Alba is faster and has a better technique. Cole is more sneaky and experienced

 

[AnfieldEd]

He and Young have been abused on twitter.

 

[Jenks]

Young deserves criticism, but Ashley is by far England's most consistent high performer. The people who give him grief are just your typical day-tripper fuckwits who know nothing about football.

 

[AnfieldEd]

Young doesn't deserve the racist abuse he is getting either.

Oh and Cole is by far a superior left back to Alba at this present moment in time. Cole has proven his defensive prowess and capabilities. Alba hasn't. Offensively I would say about the same, however in his prime Cole was the best offensive left back in the world and Alba hasn't reached that level yet in his career.

Oh I didn't realise it was racist. I though he just meant abuse for the performance yesterday

Yes both Cole and Young received racist abuse on twitter by some clown.

Cole never impressed me offensively

 

[antonnn]

Cole flourished offensively at Arsenal. At Chelsea he became the best LB in the world but more based on his defence. His attacking was still more than adequate, though.

Yeah, I like Ashley but in a match where they played out of fear in the usual English fashion, he was a bit useless but that wasn't really his fault, per se...Missed pk, happens to even the best
