Champions League: Joe Cole names EPL team that can win trophy

Ex-England midfielder, Joe Cole, has believed that Chelsea can win the Champions League title this season.

According to Cole, his former team are dark horses in the competition.

This season, a total of six Premier League clubs will play in the Champions League.

They are: Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester City, Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur.

Last year, Arsenal progressed the furthest out of the English clubs, with Mikel Arteta’s side ultimately bowing out in the semi-finals to eventual champions, Paris Saint-Germain.

“I’d put them in a bracket just at the top of the dark horses and bottom of the teams who you might expect to be in the latter stages of the competition,” Cole told TNT Sports when asked to rate Chelsea’s chances in this season’s competition.

“It all depends, I think, on the performance of the goalkeeper Sanchez.”
