Joe Cole Quotations

We know we have to go there and score two goals, and if anyone's capable of doing that it's our squad.

When I'm playing regularly, I feel happy and that's when I get my strength and power to go past someone, which is so important to me,

I was impressed by everybody in the England team,

Frank's a world class player and any team would miss him. Hopefully we'll have everyone fit for Barcelona.

If anyone is capable of doing it it is our squad of players.

I thought we controlled the game, but we didn't control it so well in the last 20 minutes and Wales threw everything at us at the end.

It had a very successful year last year, but it's challenged to compete because of its age.

People have to get off and walk between the bus and the snow bank and could slip and fall.

We've got the best squad to do it. We've been unfortunate in the three games we've played against Barcelona to end up playing with 10 men on two occasions. The luck hasn't been with us but we still beat them last year, so we can do it this year as well.

We could not get going against Liverpool and we take collective responsibility for that.

We were starting to get nervous, so I was delighted to score. It gave us the lift we needed,

The pigs weren't mummified and they were in these jars with blood and maggots crawling out of the ears and maggots crawling all over. We just did not think that was appropriate.

We want to have the community's support, and this is one way to get it.

We used a new system. We're not going to get it right straight away, but I felt it worked well at times and it got the job done,

We have beaten our direct opponent for the league...psychologically it's important because we haven't beaten them in the league for a long time.

We want to win it at home. It will be a fantastic season with back-to-back titles which has not been done by Chelsea before.

We all know what Shaun can do. You've just got to get him the ball, one on one, and that's when he's at his best.

The season has just started and yet the way we've been playing makes it very exciting and hopefully we can keep that rolling, like Arsenal did when they were playing some great stuff,

I've spoken to Wayne and he is a bit down but the injury is not too bad and it certainly won't rule him out of the World Cup.

The morale around the camp is really high. Any time you play against any of the big clubs it's important. It's the second time we've beaten them this year and it was vital to do that. A 15-point lead is a great position - it's even better than this time last year.

They played their best tonight and it was a good match. England are good enough to win the World Cup, not just for tonight but because they have great players. They are a great team with a great manager.

This is the vital part of the season for us, all the way up to the West Ham game in the new year. If we can still keep the same gap or possibly extend it by then we'll be flying.

It was strange not having him there. What's happened was a bolt out of the blue but I think he's going to be OK and I just can't wait to have him back with me again.

It's a fantastic victory, two matches, six points,

It's all good at the moment. We are really flying.

Its going to be a big game in Chelsea history.

It's probably the toughest game we've had all season.

The booing of Peter was not good. Unfortunately, people believe what they read in the papers.

It wasn't a great performance from us against Birmingham but seven points is still a big gap over Manchester United and we are confident of securing the title again.

That miss will haunt me, but there you go. We just didn't get going and we take collective responsibility for that. But this will make us all the more determined to go out and win the title against Manchester United next week.

I'm confident in myself at the moment and I just want to keep that going.

(Chelsea) have to attract a new generation of fans to come to Stamford Bridge .

All the tests came back. Everything was well within range, and they literally found nothing.

The goal was for my dad. He had a minor heart attack a couple of days ago. He is feeling fine and was watching the game from hospital and he will be well pleased.
