JOE COLE is very excited by Chelsea’s signing of Mykhailo Mudryk.
The winger joined the Blues in a £97million move last month.

He hit the ground running off the bench in his debut against Liverpool, impressing with his lightning speed and dribbling ability.
Mudryk even set a record for fastest pace in the Premier League this season before failing to show what he is capable of in the 0-0 draw with Fulham.
The Ukrainian was substituted at half-time in that clash but former Chelsea star Cole still believes he will be a top player for the club.
He told BT Sport: “He’s going to be a top player for Chelsea.
“He looks a fantastic final third player who can beat a man, excite the crowd and has great feet.
“He reminds me of Arjen Robben in the way he drives past players in short bursts and makes the right decisions in the final third.
“I think he’s going to get better and better so Chelsea have got him at the right time.
“He just needs to settle. It’s a big jump coming from Ukraine to the Premier League so they’ll need to give him some time but I’m really excited about him once he learns to play under Potter.”

Mudryk has another chance to impress on Saturday when Chelsea visit West Ham in the lunch-time kick-off.
The Blues have struggled for goals and points in recent weeks but were boosted by Raheem Sterling’s return from injury last weekend.
