Cole a bridge too far, says Terry

CHELSEA captain John Terry last night insisted the Blues do not need to sign Ashley Cole as they already have a world-class left-back in Wayne Bridge.

Jose Mourinho has confirmed he is interested in recruiting a replacement for Celestine Babayaro, who was sold to Newcastle in the transfer window, during the summer.

And Mourinho recently revealed his admiration for Cole. He has so far side-stepped allegations that he was involved in an illegal meeting with the Arsenal full-back at a London hotel last month, with the Premier League carrying out an official inquiry.
