Finally Ashley Cole signs for Chelsea. Very good move for him, best move he can do. Why did Arsene want to get rid of him so much ? hes one of the best left hand players in the league. I understand that maybe they didnt get on but surely they could of sorted it out ! I hope he puts a couple past the Arsenal

The deal was completed just before the transfer deadline with Cole, who was with the England squad in a Manchester hotel, having his medical nearby.

Cole is believed to have signed a five-year deal worth £90,000 per week.

Chelsea had been linked with Cole, 25, all summer, but disagreements over the transfer fee stalled the move.

A joint statement from the clubs said: "Chelsea FC and Arsenal have agreed terms for the transfers of Ashley Cole and William Gallas.

"Chelsea will also pay Arsenal £5m. Both players have agreed personal terms and passed their respective medicals."

Although all the relevant paperwork had been lodged with the Premier League, neither club had made an announcement by the time the midnight deadline passed.

It was not until 0125 BST on Friday that the statement was finally issued.

I beleive this deal was done and dusted weeks ago, I just think that the 2 clubs did not want the other clubs to know what they were planning....

It makes it harder for the oposition to plan their tactics if they don't know who is going to play...

This whole transfer saga is an embarasment to football...
