What's the story there? I know he had a bad injury, but he barely features for Chelsea. Does Ancelotti not like him? It seems a shame, it's hit his England chances hard.
I would say we'll have him, but we've got Steven Hunt

When Jose Mourinho had total control over him and beat him up every time he messed around the he was a very good player.
But apart from that he's never produced..
His contract is coming up for renewal, he's supposed to want parity with players like Balack and Essien. He doesn't deserve that. Chelsea don't seem to be offering what he wants, so he's possibly going to be available.
He was dire yesterday. His stupid, pointless stepovers were dealt with easily by Championship players. He did nothing and was subbed at half time.
Because he's English, a seemingly likeable bloke and it's obvious he wants to succeed the Chelsea supporters are desperate for him to come good, but personally I don't see him ever coming good.
I'd be delighted if he went to Citeh or Liverpool, on big money. Unless he improves sgnificantly then he's not worth a place in the England squad. I'd probably choose Walcott for the squad over Cole, and if Walcott gets another undeserved squad place I'll be going down Wembley to smash up the FA's offices.
