After initially tearing the ACL in his right knee back in January and seemingly set for an early return to Chelsea’s training sessions, England International Joe Cole suffered a bit of a setback after suffering a slight tear in his meniscus and forcing him to miss another month after undergoing a scope to clean things up.
The Dan Patrick Show devoted several minutes to ”The Super Bowl of Soccer” this morning and had a coolish interview with Joe Cole of Chelsea to discuss the game, and also promised to go to Stamford Bridge this summer and then visit Frank Lampard’s pub. (Audio link after jump too).
Still looking extremely hesitant, but great to see he’s out on the pitch and working to get back. Interesting though that he pulls the ankle ligament injury earlier in the season to the ACL tear.
England International and Chelsea forward / midfielder Joe Cole went on Chelsea TV’s Big Match Countdown to talk about his current state of recovery following ACL Reconstruction back in mid - January, fitness levels and when fans can expect him back on the field.
England International and Chelsea midfielder Joe Cole has been ruled out for the season after the 28 year old underwent successful reconstructive surgery on his right knee this morning.
