Here is Ashley Cole out with some friends including John Terry and One Direction crooner Niall Horan seeing the funny side by recreating his memorable awkward pose.
Just like the infamous picture with his new Roma team-mates which was taken soon after he joined the Italian side from Chelsea, the self-deprecating Cole has again decided to stay on the periphery of the shot away from everyone else.
Terry, who played alongside Cole in the Chelsea defence for eight trophy-laden years, posted the image to his Instagram page last night, with the caption "#thelurker".
Cole himself tweeted out the image as well, with the caption "doing what I do". It was the latest in many tweets about the original picture Cole had sent after it went viral, including tweeting a meme of him "lurking" through ex-wife Cheryl Cole's window while she posed with new husband Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini.

The photo was taken in London on a night out to celebrate Horan's upcoming 21st birthday. The Irish singer got to know the Chelsea players last season, as he underwent physiotherapy sessions with the club's medical experts to help his knee injury.
