Chelsea legend Ashley Cole has made an instant impact at LA Galaxy.

Cole has been named in the first MLS team of the week for the 2016 season after an accomplished display in La Galaxy's 4-1 victory over DC United on Sunday.

The former Arsenal full-back found adjusting to life in Serie A with Roma a struggle following his release from Chelsea in 2014.

But Cole had no such problem finding his rhythm alongside Robbie Keane and Steven Gerrard with his new team.
