The club have brought back Frank Lampard as an interim manager until the end of the season, replacing the axed Graham Potter.
Cole has also returned to the club to coach the underperforming players.
And fans wish he was still playing instead of Marc Cucurella after spotting him passionately coaching the summer signing.
One fan tweeted: “LOVE this intensity and passion from Ashley Cole…”
