Cole's 'new kid at school' look

There aren't many things we enjoy here at ESPN Towers more than an awkward photograph - so a huge thank you to Roma defender Ashley Cole for this gem.

The former Arsenal and Chelsea left-back latched uncomfortably on the end as his new team-mates posed for a photograph during their pre-season tour of the US in a position we call "new kid at school".

Let's just hope Francesco Totti doesn't flush his head down the toilet...

The internet didn't take long to start having its fun, either.
