Leif 6,006 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Have not really seen too much of him but heard that he is terrible defensively.+1I cringed whenever I saw him for Vitesse. Was usually the worst player on the pitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 4,400 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 If he was so bad for Vitesse and the fans hate him, why would we put him through that torment again for another year? Get him out of there and onto a new challenge or he'll lose all self confidence and get worse. Whether we have a relationship with them or not, these loans are supposed to help our players, not hinder them.Must say tho, if he can't hack it for Vitesse, he's gonna find it nearly impossible here and i thought he looked good. Oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EskWeston 696 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Youngsters Tomas Kalas and Patrick van Aanholt have today completed their loan deals returning them to Dutch club Vitesse Arnhem for the duration of the 2012/13 campaign.Both players were temporarily with the Eredivisie side last term. Czech Under 21 international Kalas 19, made 29 league appearances over the course of the season, while Dutchman Van Aanholt, 21, scored once in nine games having also spent time with Wigan Athletic during late 2011.Before departing for Holland, Kalas also signed a contract extension with Chelsea committing him to the club until the summer of 2017.Source: Chelsea FC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 With Ryan at the Olympics, it would have made sense to give PVA this pre season to rotate with Cole, atleast then we would have known beyond reasonable doubt if he still had a chance here or not.

zolayes 14,489 Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 if Ashley leaves he will be back up to Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCount 146 Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 He should stay on loan till Cole retires, which is only about 1-2 seasons away with age catching up, which will be a sad day to see him go,Then he'll be second choice to Bertrand and all will be well.

Tomo 21,751 Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 How is he progressing this season? Because unless his defending side has drastically improved the i don't want him here even as a backup, would rather take a punt on Deen-Conteh whereever he has disappeared too.

Because unless his defending side has drastically improved the i don't want him here even as a backup, would rather take a punt on Deen-Conteh whereever he has disappeared too.He's been doing very well, he is their starting LB week-in week-out after Butner joined Manchester United.Should Cole leave, we'd miss him a lot but we'd have two very capable LBs in Bertrand and PvA.

Jase 43,479 Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Not sure if PVA would want to stay and play as back-up to Bertrand though. At his age now, he would want to be playing week in week out to develop his career and himself further. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Im not a big believer of a player being merely a back up except in goal.If PVA does come back and outperform Bertrand then he should start until the tide changes back in the Englishman's favour.

TacticalBlues 2,817 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 How has he been doing? Rumor is we're after Luke Shaw (great player) but is only 17. Ideally we will keep Cole but if we really let him go then recalling would be a good shout. It would be good to show faith to a homegrown player for a change. He is 22 and normally impresses me when he play. If he is ever going to want a chance to prove himself this would be it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was shown under Don Carlo's reign. He gave the lad a lot of experience w/ bringing him on the First team so often. I wouldn't be surprised if PSG go after the lad.

ja1 1,166 Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Chelsea scout de Vissier on PVA:"Under the previous Vitesse coach, John van den Brom last season, Van Aanholt had no chance", De Visser told Dutch daily De Telegraaf."Now Patrick has the confidence of Fred Rutten and we will see how quickly he can develop. I said to Patrick recently to focus on football and then there will be quicker progress. How he is and his speed along the flanks, it is fantastic."If Patrick continues in this way, he could return to Chelsea faster than people think."That his name is mentioned in connection with the Oranje I can understand. Van Aanholt is not worse than Alexander Buttner or Jetro Willems. And he is faster than Erik Pieters."But lets not be too hasty. Allow Patrick first to finish the current season well."

Mufassir08 2,400 Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 It will be interesting to see whether the club will recall PVA or sign a new left back(coentrao,baines etc) if cole leaves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
