Joe Cole joins Liverpool on four-year contract




The 28-year-old England international has moved on a free transfer after his contract with Chelsea expired at the end of June. He had also been linked with Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal, who will both compete in the Champions League next season, but has chosen instead to move to Anfield where he becomes the second signing of the summer after Milan Jovanovic, the Serbian winger who joined from Standard Liège earlier this month, also on a free transfer.

I'm not convinced this was his best decision. Torres, Gerrard and Mascherano are all linked with moves away from Anfield. Meanwhile at Spurs and Arsenal he had the opportunity to play Champions League football.

He probably got word that Torres and Gerrard will stay and also guaranteed a starting spot. I agree that the lack of CL football is a minus, but hey, he got a load of cash too!!
