Counted from the international goal archive — every scorer-credited goal in the matches it covers, 1916 to today. A record of covered matches, not a complete career count; own goals never join a scorer's tally.

Joseph John Cole is an English professional football coach and former player who played as an attacking midfielder or winger. He was long touted as a child prodigy and as the hottest prospect in English football, with Manchester United reportedly offering to pay £10 million for his services as a 16-year-old. — Wikipedia

In the line-ups

5 appearances in recorded line-ups · 2006

The archive holds 5 team sheets naming Joe Cole in England's starting line-up, from 2006-06-10 to 2006-07-01.

5 appearances in the starting line-ups the archive holds — not a career total. Our line-up coverage is partial, so a match he played that we hold no sheet for is simply not counted here.
