West Ham boss Allardyce encouraged by Cole return

West Ham United boss Sam Allardyce was pleased with Carlton Cole's impact in their stalemate with Swansea City.

The striker has only just returned to the Hammers after signing a deal to January.

"Right at the end there Carlton Cole came on and gave us a bit more of an attacking thrust. He's had a good header near the end that the goalkeeper's made a good save from. We're reasonably satisfied with the point, we respect the point but disappointed we haven't got three," said Allardyce.
