Joe Cole today looked ahead to
Sunday's trip to Old Trafford
and declared: 'I love playing
against Manchester United.'
The summer signing struck a
decisive blow in last season's title
race when he netted the opening
goal of Chelsea's 2-1 victory over
Alex Ferguson's side in April with
an audacious back heel.
Now Cole can't wait to
experience the passion and
intensity of a Liverpool versus
United tussle for the first time as
a Reds player.
"I love playing against
Manchester United," he said. "I
always have. Old Trafford is a
great place to play and there is
no better stadium to get a result.
"At Liverpool with the added
rivalry between the clubs, it is
going to be really exciting. I'm
really looking forward to it. It can
be a game that you use as a
yardstick to measure your
season but if we take a result
away from Old Trafford it will be
really good.
"They are in a similar boat to us.
They haven't started all guns
blazing and have been in fits and
starts. It will be a massive test
but we have just got to keep
doing what we are doing.
"I'm available for selection. I'm
looking forward to it. People
have told me what this means to
the club and I am ready for it."
