Liverpool legend Craig Johnston is delighted with his old club's capture of Joe Cole.
The former Chelsea star chose the Reds over Champions League clubs Arsenal and Tottenham.
Johnston said: "Cole's one of the only born-and-bred players that can do it like Kevin Keegan or Kenny Dalglish could.
"He is one of the jewels in the country, so it just sends the right message to everyone. I was very excited when I heard. It brightened up my day."
