Chelsea to welcome back star for Valencia tieChelsea star Joe Cole is ready to make his long awaited return from injury against Valencia in the Champions League quarter final this week.
"I feel really happy to be back," said the talented playmaker.
"There are always little niggles when you come back - I got one before the Watford game so we erred on the side of caution and I didn't come back.
"But I feel fine now, for the first time this season.
"When I came back last time (after a knee injury) I was feeling it but now I feel my body is so close to being absolutely perfect.
"I've been out a long time but hopefully I can hit the ground running. I'll do what I can, even if it's only for 10 or 15 minutes."
