    Anfield A Possible Destination For Blues Defender - Why The Chelsea Man Must Move On 

    As Ashley Cole departs and Chelsea’s pursuit of Atletico Madrid’ Filipe Luis heats up, there remains one left-back at Stamford Bridge who must be feeling pretty unloved.  Having spent the second half of last season on loan at Aston Villa, Ryan Bertrand recently returned to his parent club with a much better chance of getting a game.  It seems, however, that he is not the man Jose Mourinho wants.
