millzy_chelsea_fan 4 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Chelsea defender Ashley Cole will make his comeback on the bench against Tottenham on Saturday. The England left-back has been out since early February with a fractured ankle which threatened to dent his World Cup hopes.He appears to have made a full recovery, though, and will be in the squad to face Spurs at White Hart Lane.Cole will likely be among the substitutes in a bid to nurse him back in to his role with the Blues.The attacking full-back hasn't played any comeback matches yet and will not want to risk any further setbacks."Ashley has not played but he is very fit and trained all week with us," said Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti."He will be on the bench on Saturday."

Randall 315 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Thank god! Now we can play yuri as a winger and malouda on the right yes yes! trust me on this one. Ivanovic apparently back as well perhaps, SEE YA ferreria! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Ferreira's been brilliant recently.Glad he's back though. Yuri's done exceptionally well but Cole is the world's best full-back, and we've missed him massively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 4,400 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 It's phenomenal news, i would love to see Yuri put in the middle along side Lamps and Mikel (Essien when he's fit) with Ash back at LB and then we'll be a much more pacey and effective team in the final third (if we don't buy that playmaker we so need).

Rubber bullets 1,183 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Such a shame for Yuri though, there will be obvious pressure from the media and other sources to phase the excellent Zhirkov for A.Cole just because of the world cup.

Randall 315 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Yuri is a really, really good winger as well you know. I think play him left wing and malouda right, I fancy malouda to cut in and smash a few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
