Joe Cole has revealed he would like to 'play for Chelsea forever'.

The 26-year-old will make his 200th appearance for the Blues if selected against Wigan in the FA Cup on Saturday.

And Cole, who has earned 47 England caps, has admitted the honour he feels in playing for Chelsea.

Cole has won two Premier League titles with the Blues since moving to Stamford Bridge from West Ham in 2003 and he is keen to repeat that success.

"It's a great honour, and if I could pause time and just play, I'd play for Chelsea forever," Cole told Chelsea's official website.

Happy times

"It goes too quickly. I just want to keep playing, keep winning things and enjoy it as much as I can.

"There are so many happy times and hopefully I get a few more appearances under my belt too."

Cole has also hinted that he believes Chelsea are capable of winning the UEFA Champions League, the Premier League, FA Cup and Carling Cup this season.

The Blues booked their place in the Carling Cup final with a semi-final victory over Everton this week and Cole hopes the winning run will continue.

"I think we've been immense in the last few games," Cole added. "The wins keep stacking up and I think we'll push them (the four trophies) all the way."
