CANDID, RAW AND UNFORGETTABLE, THIS IS JOE COLE'S STORY - A MUST-READ FOR ANY FOOTBALL FAN
One of the best players of his era, Joe Cole grew up playing football in North London's estates, and his ability, grit and hard work took him to the very top. But Joe was often mistrusted by managers and out of step with the style of English football in the 2000s. The game was suspicious of creative footballers it considered luxury players - the kind it could regard as an indulgence.
With honesty and an eye for the absurdities of football, Joe takes us inside the dressing room to reveal it all. From his days at the FA's School of Excellence at Lilleshall and rising through the ranks at West Ham, to winning it all under José Mourinho and Carlo Ancelotti at Chelsea, whilst playing with England's so-called Golden Generation.
But the trophies, goals and moments of magic couldn't last forever. After battling severe injuries - and suffering devastating family loss - Joe walked away from the sport that had given him everything, bringing one of football's most remarkable careers to a close.
