One of the best players of his era, Joe Cole was the teenage prodigy in a West Ham team that challenged at the top of the Premier League and also had to scrap at the bottom. He was a star in both Roman Abramovich's Chelsea that changed football forever as well as England's so-called Golden Generation.
