The John Terry Appreciation Thread

Now watch all those Villa fans who have been talking sh*t about him for years say how brilliant he is and how happy they are to have him. With the way English clubs have talked so much sh*t about him over the years, they should consider themselves incredibly fortunate to have even had the opportunity to sign him.

Let's be fair we are all guilty of that, i can't imagine any Chelsea fan with love for Ash or Cesc circa 2005 or 2013 respectively. Apart from Chelsea/Benitez fans have always backtracked when a previous hate figure has joined the club. 

 
My favourite JT moment is him scoring a late winner against Burnley after they hounded him all night. Brilliant stuff.

 
JT is a Chelsea legend, but never wanted to see him in a Claret n Blue.....

 
Can't find a thread on Ashley Cole so thought I'd put it here.

'I'm enjoying it here at the moment, but I would like to go back to England and work for Chelsea in some capacity if I could, so that would be my first choice,' Cole told FourFourTwo.

'Coaching or being a scout is something I've always considered and enjoyed while watching games. 

'I try to nurture young players coming through, so it's something I have in the back of my mind for after I finish playing.'

His goal away at Burnley in 2010 was probably my favourite. Bullet header and no celebration. This was just after the whole Wayne Bridge affair fiasco all came out. His name was song so loudly from the away end that night. Hero.

 
A bad start for Villa and JT will be player-manager before Xmas. All the ingredients are there, volatile league, highly ambitious high profile senior player determined to be a manager, a seemingly nutjob of a chairman who would probably jump at the chance of having someone so high profile as manager......

 
I'm missing him so much! It's going to take a very long time until we will find our Academy prospect that will reach his level.

Um, yeah. This was only a matter of time.

Besides, I think Desailly has said it that he knows Terry and doesn't think JT's a racist. I don't see a reason why Desailly would say so if it wasn't his honest opinion. Terry took his place in the squad, so it seems he has respect for Terry after all these years.

Not relevant to Terry, but Imagine if Chelsea had done this?
