Patrick Van Aanholt

Confirmation today that PVA will be joining Vitesse Arnhem on loan for the rest of the season. He spent the first half of the season at Wigan, but disappointingly made only four appearances.

With the more experienced Ryan Bertrand also in competition for Ashley Cole's left back position, opportunities at Chelsea are sure to be limited. In fact, you have to ask yourself whether there is a long term future for Van Aanholt at Stamford Bridge. Having seen him impress for the reserves on numerous occasions, I would like to think that he could still someday make the breakthrough.

I hope Van Aanholt makes an impact at Arnhem, he's a decent player who can play at left-back or centre-half if needed. Hopefully he'll return to the Bridge to compete with Bertrand for the left back position.

Its good that Chelsea is giving these youngsters chances by loaning them out to other clubs around the globe. It will give them more experience, hopefully make them a better player when they play in our first team.

Good luck to them.
