Bertrand impresses

Last updated : 23 August 2007 By The Chairman
John Sheridan has been so impressed with new signing Ryan Bertrand that he is considering giving him a starting spot against Bristol Rovers on Saturday. 18 year old Bertrand is an England under 19 international and Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho rates him highly.

Sheridan told the official website, "He's a young kid who people are expecting big things from. Ryan is with a club who are one of the best in the world at the moment, and I like what I'm seeing in training. This loan spell will be a great experience for him, and I expect him to do well. I've said to Ryan that if he proves to me that he is good enough I will give him a chance to play."
