Fabio Capello's eagerly anticipated 23 man squad for South Africa 2010 has finally been revealed. Seven players have received the 'bad' news that they are not going, including Arsenal's Theo Walcott. Chelsea however, have FOUR players (the only doubt was Joey Cole's inclusion) but Joey along with Ashley Cole, JT and Super Frank will be on their way when the plane takes off tomorrow (Wednesday).
Joey goes as a Chelsea player. The question is, will he come back a Chelsea player? The latest rumour is that contract talks will resume again after the World Cup and with Jose in the Madrid hotseat, speculation surrounds 'troubled' Ash, that he may go and join his former boss in the Spanish capital.
JT has urged Joey to stay at Chelsea. He said, "I could say it would be nice to get Joe sorted before the World Cup, but sometimes it's not as easy as that. Joe's focus is to knuckle down and concentrate on the World Cup, although obviously we'd love Joe to stay."
Not only you JT, but the fans would dearly love Joey to stay. Personally I am not sure as it was lauded quite loudly at the final home game of the season, that Joey WILL leave Stamford Bridge.
Fingers crossed Joey doesn't
