Cole in an interview with the Evening Standard.Cole was speculatively linked away from
Chelsea over the summer, with Barcelona the most likely a club if the 28-year-old were to leave the Bridge.However, the defender has committed himself to Chelsea with the extension, and he was not shy in continuing his praise of
John Terry and
