He was much better at Leeds than he was at Man U. Very lucky Vidic and Evra came and won him some titles at Man U. Him, Brown, Blanc, Silvertre, the Nevilles all awful in those barren years after Irwin and Stam left. O'Shea the only decent one. Those years at Leeds were the only time in his career where he wouldn't have those lapses in concentration and hand teams goals. If he played like he did at Leeds for the rest of his career I would probably put him above Maldini as the best cb of all time, apart from that one mistake v Brazil he was brilliant at world cup 2002 too

Duno I’m still warming to him can’t lie

I think he realises its relatable

Do we really believe he's still tight with 6 of the day one boys? I have doubts.

@@TheUnleetGamer yeah

Don't we all

I reckon he’s always active in them 😅

Yeah

Players like JT, Ashley Cole and Rooney were villified based on rumours so can't blame players for wanting perfect PR these days

They are ! Full version on line

Joe Cole is very relatable. Imagine a Weekly podcast with Harry Redknapp, Defoe, Rio, Joe Cole. I think it would be the most viewed on youtube

Yeah

Lol

I always thought that after i saw tropic thunder

its really not

I thought I had clicked on a Shaggy video by mistake when he first walked in 😃

@@kevob hahahaha!

Looks like he stayed over David Hayes house unplanned

What I'm time for guy fawkes???

Fear of God.

When he was thinking in my head I was saying 'Maldini, Maldini, Maldini'. Jt and Maldini would be my all time cbs

rio has own own channel called 'Rio Ferdinand Presents FIVE' and has talked to joe cole for an hour

@@antboa yeah

Because they are winning loads now lol

Still no win fuckal

My Mama don't

no chance 2008-2010 his peak

@@shesbaldbutiwould, what do u know about football? I’ve Ben football fan since 80s but more into it , in d 90s. Is like mo salad @ Roma was unplayable in seria A but Liverpool gave him all d trophies he deserves.

It would be a cracking program to get all or as many as possible from that "golden generation" team sat down in a room and talk about it now and see if they could figure it out.

@@TheDoosh79 No need, Scholes and Lampard have answered it. The other teams were just better and the midfield should have been built around Carrick and Hargreaves. No need for a show.

Media pressure

What it was, was bad coaching. They all blame Sven but he actually took it up a level. Keegan and Hoddle trird to rely on the old guard. While Sven actually played the best 11. Coaching in England was awful before they got spanked by Germany in 2010 and they said okay we need to copy Germany and Spain. Back in the day England fought they could just win through grit. Players like Phil Foden and Sterling would have been told to play two touch or they would have been benched like Joe Cole and any inventive player before Rooney was. It was all get it up to Shearer or Heskey up front get it out to Beckham and everyone get in the box LOL

That's how life works, especially in a field that relies on popularity and doesn't have specific qualifications.

@@thrilla72 True. I know this as just been interviewing last 3 weeks. Same rules in my Field unfortunately and fortunately.

Yes. He is still a man of the people.

@@mediacenterman8583 😂😂😂

Why not ? Such a random and pointless thing to make up

He’s in a WhatsApp group with his friends from there. We don’t know if they are still living in a council estate and why would that matter anyways if he’s still friends with them 😄

Prob coz your mum was sat on his face 20 mins before…

Erm…. Ok mate
