Former Red Expresses His Regrets!
LFC have always been the home of the braves, despite all the successes and failures. Joe Cole was a former warrior at the Merseyside club, and now, he thinks he shouldn’t have joined Liverpool. Although it seems disheartening to the fans, there are reasons why he expressed his regrets.
Joe Cole Has Second Thoughts On Joining Liverpool
Decisions define your career and sometimes, it’s what defines how much success a footballer will get.
Amidst the slow lacklustre transfer window in the Premier League giant, a former LFC star has opened up about his move. Joe Cole, recently said, that he probably made a bad decision by moving to Liverpool.
According to him, if somehow he got his time back, Cole wouldn’t repeat the same mistake. The 42-year-old suffered a serious knee injury in 2009 in the FA Cup while he was playing for Southend. But, how did Joe Cole, a Chelsea fan, move to Liverpool?
Shortly after the injury, Cole could realize that he would not be the same player again. So, instead of being at Stamford Bridge, he made a decision. Joe was just a 29-year-old youngster when it happened.
When he was talking about his life on The Obi One Podcast, Joe Cole expressed his regrets about accepting the offer from Liverpool.
According to him, if he had a second chance, he would’ve rejected marching into Anfield.
“Because after that I went to Liverpool, West Ham, Villa. I had a good season in France, but with my knee, I was just managing my injuries. Managing to still play, play well sometimes but never really consistently like I had been. I never played for England again after 2010.
Then when I went to America, it was like a miracle. Living in the sun, my knee was like 60-70%. It’s still not right now but I could still play. It was like a miracle. If I could have hindsight, I would have gone abroad somewhere hot, maybe Spain or Southern Italy somewhere, and I think I could have played at the top level for a little bit longer.”
