Chelsea rule! (at some point in the future probably)
More excitment at Chelsea today as Joe Cole is signed from West Ham. Once again it's a reminder of how quickly things have changed at Stamford Bridge that this signing is greeted with huge indifference on the Chelsea fans messageboard on the BBC website. A couple of months ago Joe Cole would have been seen as a fantastic signing, now expectations have risen to such a high degree that he seems a bit second rate.
Joe Cole is an excellent player, West Ham's Captain and a full England International. He's only 21 years old, he could be at the top for another 15 years. Hurrah!!

We can also expect Veron and a striker, hopefully Christian Vieri, by the Champions League deadline on Thursday.
