Joe Cole has been playing for Chelsea. October saw him come back into the team and play well. This can only be good news for England. Will he make it into the squad for the friendly against Brazil in November?
Meanwhile Rio Ferdinand who has looked out of sorts may be out for 5 weeks. He has been persistently plagued by injuries that seem to emanate from a back injury sustained last December. Still some way to go before the finals, but these two players form and fitness are significant.
