Chelsea icon reveals his regret at leaving Stamford Bridge to join Liverpool
Former Chelsea star Joe Cole has revealed that he regrets leaving the blues to join Liverpool on a free transfer when his contract expired at Stamford Bridge.
Joe Cole was still on top of his game when he left Chelsea for Liverpool as a free agent in 2010 despite suffering a serious long-term knee injury.
Fast track to 2021, Joe Cole has insisted that his move to Liverpool remain a mistake he will not forget in a hurry.
When asked if he could go back in time would he still sign for Liverpool, Cole told the Premier League that at the risk of upsetting Liverpool fans any more than they’re upset with him already, he probably wouldn’t.
The former England international stated that not for any fault of the club or because he didn’t like the club or anything but he signed for the previous owners and then they sold the club four or five weeks later.
According to Joe Cole, With what football clubs are like, it’s hard enough when managers come and go, player can fall out of favour.
But when the owners come and go, he knew it was only a matter of time before Roy
Hodgson got the boot, and that’s when his injuries started.
