RUMOUR - Joe Cole

[leon]

I don't believe for one minute we'll get him. Ignore the top 6 clubs and the 3 newly promoted clubs, and there would be 11 clubs he could have his pick of. I just don't see a player of his calibre opting for newly promoted Reading over an Aston Villa, Everton, Fulham, Swansea etc. But at least we seem to be aiming high. Who knows, football is a fully old game sometimes.

not sure I rate him tbf. I might be wrong but what is it that he can do?

Agreed...

well done him, and how is his career going now? Anyway what exactly can he do? He's shit.

oh dear, have you been drinking Stella again rainman?

[royalsteve]

ive heard we have signed him - not sure if loan or bought - but i wont believe it till its official

[Big Ern]

I doubt Liverpool will make any decision on his future until they have a new manager installed.

Those who don't think he would improve the squad are clearly mad.

Besides all that, I reckon he will go to West Ham.

I would be very surprised if he would make a decision on his future so soon in the summer. Surely the longer he waits the better it is for him to review all his options?

[Stranded]

Given the French Ligue 1 season doesn't even finish until tonight, I'd be amazed if anything has even been discussed as yet.

Reading want to start life in the Premier League with Joe Cole. The newly promoted Royals have earmarked the Liverpool midfielder. #rumours

Joe Cole rumored to go back to West Ham.

[Royal Ginger]

Sounds more like it to me.

[paultheroyal]

[Mintymurray]

[Barry the bird boggler]

anyone who thinks this gossip is serious

[loyalroyal4life]

Joe Cole rumored to go back to West Ham.

he will choose them over us (if we are even interested)

[largetrousers]

Joe Cole = No thanks. Never rated him one bit, only flash of brilliance that comes to mind was that volley for England. I don't see him as the right sort of fit, couldn't do it at chelsea, liverpool etc, looked like everyone expected great things from him and it just didn't happen and was eventually found out and sent out on loan.

[melonhead]

LOL at RFC not wanting joe cole

[Extended-Phenotype]

LOL at 'if he ain't good enough for Chelsea he ain't good enough for us'. Our whole team isn't good enough for Chelsea.

Though I must admit I, like everyone else, was dissapointed that he "couldn't do it" for Chelsea, only managing to be a regular player in a top 4 club for just seven years, playing only a major role in their league winning seasons.

And he was rubbish for Liverpool, especially when everyone else in the team were playing so well in a fantastic season for the club.

Wouldn't touch this fantastic player with a barge pole.

[melonhead]

brilliant in france, when played in the correct position/system
as usual, english teams cant cope with creative players......

[Extended-Phenotype]

Didn't Joe once get a shout at central mid with Chelsea?

I remember plenty suggesting it as an option for England in 2010, behind a target man - but Fabio was hostilo.

Grasping at a comment out of context perhaps but it seems Lawson D'ath met someone called Joey Cole today... or at least his daughter.
