The ex-Chelsea striker Joe Cole has had a rough start to his career at Anfield. He somehow managed to get sent off against Arsenal on his debut, and now he has missed a penalty in his second match.

But at least Liverpool have taken a slender lead in this Europa Cup Qualifier, but it is never easy to go away to Turkey and return with a result. Roy Hodgson was more upset about a last minte disallowed goal than the penalty miss.

Liverpool were already 2-0 up but they didn’t give their supporters any heart attacks as they eased through to the next round of the Europa Cup. N’Gog scored yet another one to give Roy Hodgson a striking dilemma when Fernando Torres returns to fitness, and Steve G got his first of the season from the penalty spot.

The ex-Chelsea midfielder Joe Cole believes he has made the right decision in going to Liverpool, and feels that he can give them the best years of his life in the next few years, and thinks he can help them to regain the title that they desperately want.

”The target of a club like this is the number one place,” said Cole.

Okay I didn’t think that it was a good idea to let Joe Cole leave Chelsea, but now I am afraid that I have changed my mind completely. Obviously the management realised that Cole had totally lost his marbles and it was better for him to go.

Cole proved it today when he announced in a press conference that he had no problem choosing Liverpool as his next club, because they are the biggest club in England!

The Liverpool legend Ian Rush thinks that the signing of Joe Cole is “fantastic” and he is absolutely perfect to work behind Fernando Torres in the Liverpool midfield.

“I think it’s a fantastic buy,” said the club’s record goalscorer.

“When you look at what we’ve got attacking-wise we’ve got younger lads but we needed more experience and Cole brings that.

According to reports today, the ex-Chelsea midfielder Joe Cole has made his mind up and plumped for a move to Anfield for the new season.

A report on ESPN said: Liverpool have signed former Chelsea midfielder Joe Cole on a free transfer.

The Tottenham defender Gareth Bale thinks that Joe Cole would bring some invaluable Champions League experience to the Spurs side as they prepare to play in Europe’s Premier competition next season.

Harry Redknapp has made no secret of the fact that he would love Cole to join him at White Hart Lane, and Bale backs him up completely.

It is being reported this morning in Israel that the Liverpool midfielder Yossi Benayoun has agreed to join Chelsea on a four year contract.

A few weeks ago Benayoun told the Israeli media that a deal was on the cards when he was quoted as saying: “Ancelotti wants me for next season and now everything depends on Liverpool,” he was reported as saying.

The Chelsea and England star Joe Cole could be a free agent at the end of this month, and there have been many rumours about where he will end up next season, most notably regarding Arsenal, but the Spurs manager Harry Redknapp would love Cole to rejoin him at White Hart Lane, and wants to speak to him about it when he returns from South Africa.

The Sunday papers are full of Joe Cole transfer news today. He is definitely the hottest player on the market at the moment, especially as he could be available on a free transfer. Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp said last week that Cole had agreed a deal with someone, but not Spurs, but the some papers still have them in the running.
