I take it you used to read alot of scouse bollocks before? Let me guess,they were all saying Frank was fat and Gerrard is way better and Carragher should be England's first choice defender ahead of terry. I've watched JT since day one in Chelsea colours. He never let's us down. Absolute born leader and 100% EVERY game. Apart from after the Bridge gate scandal last year when his head seemed elsewhere,he was making uncharacteristic errors that i'd never seen from him before,apart from that he has been class basically since breaking into the first team. For which should have been even sooner as the ageing and starting to look useless Desailly was keeping him out of the team until Ranieri saw sense. He can never be too old as he never had the pace in the first place. If only we had another few JT's coming through the youth ranks,he can never be replaced. Despite us having the likes of Gallas,Desailly,Lebouef,Carvalho IMO they don't come close to JT.
