Joe Cole has surprisingly claimed that he learned more under Rudi Garcia at Lille than he did from Jose Mourinho or Carlo Ancelotti at Chelsea.
The BT Sport pundit spent one year at the French side on a one-year loan deal during the 2011-12 season from Liverpool.
He is most known from his seven seasons at Chelsea where he won three Premier League titles in total under Mourinho and Ancelotti.
Chelsea defeated Lille 2-0 in the first leg of their last-16 clash in the Champions League on Tuesday, and Cole has reminisced about his brief spell in Ligue 1.
