Chelsea left-back Ashley Cole could lose place in England World Cup squad following Ryan Bertrand loan move Bertrand also made an appearance as a substitute in the World Cup qualifying draw against Ukraine at Wembley and is liked by Hodgson because he can operate as a defensive left-sided midfielder, where he made his European debut for Chelsea in the final of the Champions League. While Bertrand offers Hodgson versatility, Gibbs, 24, has been superb in Arsenal's charge to the top of the Premier League and has returned from injury to provide Cole with stiff competition. Hodgson and his assistant, Ray Lewington, were at Stamford Bridge on Sunday to see Chelsea beat United, but Cole was denied the chance to impress as he was left on the bench. Cole has been one of the best left-backs in the world for the past decade, but the 33-year-old has struggled with injuries this season and appears to have fallen behind makeshift left-back Cesar Azpilicueta in the Chelsea pecking order. That will not stop Cole fighting hard to regain an automatic starting place and he is confident there is still plenty of time to prove he can play in another World Cup. Hodgson was concerned by Cole's last performance in an England shirt in the friendly defeat against Germany in November, when the former Arsenal player was substituted shortly after half-time and replaced by Gibbs. With Cole relegated to the substitutes" bench too often for Hodgson's liking, there is a worry he will not be fit enough to play in England's three Group D games in 11 days or step in at late notice in the event of injury or suspension. Cole has won 106 England caps and made his first World Cup appearance as a 21-year-old against Sweden in 2002 in Japan. He also played in Germany 2006 and South Africa 2010. Baines is set to sign a new Everton contract and is hoping to take over as Hodgson's first-choice left-back in Brazil. The 29-year-old has made 22 England appearances, scoring one goal. Cole is in the final year of his Chelsea contract, but Mourinho has claimed he can expect to be offered a new deal to extend his eight-year stay at Stamford Bridge. Eden Hazard has insisted he is happy to remain at Chelsea, despite the fact Paris St-Germain are interested in taking the Belgium international to France. "I often hear PSG is interested in me because it's a big club, with lots of money involved," said Hazard. But I'm a Chelsea player and I like it over here. There's no chance I'll leave in January, but I also think I won't move on this summer. I feel good in this club. This is the ideal environment to make progression as a player. The future of striker Samuel Eto'o, who netted a hat-trick in Sunday's victory over United, is less clear as he has been lined up for an end-of-season switch to the MLS. Eto'o"s Chelsea deal expires at the end of the season and the 32-year-old said: "I am signed at Chelsea for this season. I will try to enjoy it and later we will see. I've never lost my hunger for goals, it's my work.
