WORLD CUP fans are raving about England legend Joe Cole’s “magic hands” with the ex-midfielder working as a pundit for ITV.
Cole, 41, was giving some post-match comments on France’s 2-1 win over Denmark.
Kylian Mbappe netted a brace, while ex-Chelsea defender Andreas Christensen scored for the Danes.
As Cole was talking, special effects appeared on screen around his hands.
It looked as if Cole was whipping up some magic, which has fans non-stop talking about it.
One said on Twitter: “Joe Cole just did magic.”
The ITV panel, which also included Manchester United legends Roy Keane and Gary Neville, got on to the subject of England and cautious manager Gareth Southgate.
England played out a World Cup Group B draw with USA on Friday and offered very little in the final third.
Cole says the Three Lions have a knack of opting for cautious managers.
One example he remembers is having defender Phil Neville picked ahead of him at Euro 2004 to come off the bench against Portugal.
HOW TO GET FREE BETS ON THE WORLD CUP
The youngest of the Neville brothers played on the left flank.
Such a decision should have seen Sven-Goran Eriksson sacked, Keane declared.
A fan said: “Rahhhh they started Phil Neville ahead of Joe Cole vs Portugal in Euro 2004. England always Englanding.”
