Nope.

It's all there in Maka's book, the media just reported what was in the book. Terry had to get his lawyers involved.

I never said that it didn't happen, just the media waxes over the story with a bit of drama; like always. I just read some reports that JT's and Maka's relationship is frosty at best now, which is what I was referring to as drama. At least I think I read that somewhere...

just translate it.

girl from norway with cancer got a letter from our captain John Terry, one and only captain!!!!

Google translation:

Cancer Sick Cicilie (21) received a letter from John Terry

- I've hit it, and now it says on the bedside table, says the Norwegian girl. Read the letter from Chelsea captain here.

First, I did not understand completely what had happened. It was a tough day where I had just taken the cell poison.

Cicilie Andersen (21) are in a reclining sofa. The sun's rays illuminate the modern student apartment in the center of Bergen. The smell of freshly brewed tea surrounds photography student.

It's tough to be 21 years of age and cancer

Spread the table surface in front of her lies the Chelsea-effects that she recently received. And that's not what effects any time.

- John Terry has really sent me a letter! I get goose bumps every time I think about it. I've got a lot from the club. Among other things, a card with all the signatures, and a signed photo. It is amazing that they have thought of me, says young girl to tv2.no.

- I was so moved

from Chelsea Football Club, she has received a signed picture of John Terry, Frank Lampard and Florent Malouda.

And she has a team photo with all the players' signatures on a gymbag and a card that says "good improvement". And not least, a personal letter from John Terry.

In addition, she received a suit of Chelsea supporter in Bergen.

- I was so touched! Unbelievable made by the club I love, and I felt the tears came when I opened the package, she said.

The smile is loose as she continues.

- When I got buzzed me I did not know quite where to begin, or who I should thank.

- Long-awaited upturn

Cicilie has diagnosed lymphoma. The prognosis for survival is good.

The last time has been tough, but such episodes as this is a flash of light in everyday life.

- It's tough to be 21 years old and suffering from cancer. Just knowing that they think of me, and that they care, it means a lot, she tells tv2.no.

She says it was particularly the one thing that meant a lot to her.

Cicilie: Has definitely two players at Chelsea she puts a little higher than the others. It's John Terry and Frank Lampard.

- Letter from John Terry. I have framed, and it is on the bedside table. He was the first I had the jersey and he will always be a legend. Whatever is said in the media. The way he has been there for juniors at the club, and has been a strong leader is fantastic.

What do you think about everything except sports that have happened around him?

- It's obvious that he has made some mistakes in his career. But we are only human, and I will not defend what he has said. But I feel we must put this behind us now, and think ahead.

Twinkle in his eye

The man behind all this is called Stian Odegaard, he is head of the Chelsea Supporters of Bergen (CSB), together with a friend of his. They are no foundation, but a group of supporters who gathered every time there is a fight. At least.

Odegaard nice answer the phone when we ask him why he did this.

- I just thought we were to take on each other during this tough time. It is important to show that you appreciate each other, he said to TV 2

- How did you come to this?

- I wrote some e-mails over to Chelsea supporter in England. After some back and forth I got the number to someone who had contacts. And when the snowball began to roll, he clearly engaged.

Cicilie has now been under treatment since she discovered the tumor on the neck in April. She has been a while again by chemotherapy.

Hard to say exactly how long, but according to doctors at Haukeland University Hospital, she looks to be on the mend.

Tired

But today is definitely over for Cicilie.

The sun is about to go behind the seven mountains that surround the rainy town of Bergen. The warm honey tea is drunk.

She seems tired, but it is easy to see a glow in his eye.

- I remember that I said after the Champions League final which Chelsea won in May, it is fortunately not my heart there is something wrong with.

- So if Chelsea fail to win the Champions League, I will do this.

So wrote John Terry Cicilie:

" Dear Cicilie

We have heard that you do not have it very good for the future.

And we would get in touch to wish you good recovery.

I know the players well, and we were impressed when we heard how brave you have been.

And we want you to know that we are thinking of you and your family, what we can imagine the difficult times.

On behalf of all the players and everyone in Chelsea, I am sending good thoughts.

(Signature)

Regards, John Terry, first team captain. "

On a different note, is it me or is John excluded from the squad that will face Italy?

Third game of the ban is suspended for a period of 3 years, meaning any straight red in a UEFA competition during the next 3 years gets him a 4 game ban.

3 years? That's messed up. I rather he just serve out all 3 right now. He's already served 1, 1 will be the super cup and the last will be one group stage match. 4 game ban is ridiculous.

Another shocking performance by our Captain there. The call of the bench becomes louder and louder. Times change, and the armband should change of arm.

Won't argue about his awful performance, but I still think that he organizes our defense very. Whenever he's out, our defense looks a bit dismantled.

And whenever is in, our defense has a weakling in the inside. It is time to put our trust in Luiz's and Cahill's hands, and to prepare the future. Nowadays, Terry gets raped by any players with a decent pace/speed and who knows to dribble. Last year, he had a pretty average season and with many shocking performances (Liverpool away, off the top of my head). His pre-season and Community Shield game were bad. For an unknow reason he passes under the radar. He needs to be phased out and should only start the odd games.

The situation becomes more and more to look-a-like with what happens at Loserpool and Carragher. We need to prepare the future and try out to sttle the Cahill partnership, and it this partnership doesn't work out greatly, we should and try with Bruma (Kalas might be a bit too young) or with a very good CB we would buy (the proposition of DYC about Hummels is sweet).

We just need to pick and choose when we use him. Yeah he might be slow and can be beaten off the dribble but, there is no other player I would want in the game if we were parking the bus and defending for our lives.

Also does anyone else notice that he slips a lot? Seems to lose hit footing quite often, maybe he needs new cleats?

I wouldn't go that far. Terry is still a better defender than both D. Luiz and Cahill, who are both solid but nothing special imo (that's the way I see it that is).

Just look at his performances at the Euros. He was one of the better defenders that tournament as he's still a good defender. It's just his inconsistency issues and that's why we should be looking for a replacement as we really need a world-class option at CB.

I agree about most of that. I do think that he should start to be phased out of the starting XI. I was saying, however, that we should find a replacement to his role as organizer of the back 5. Don't think Luiz can fill that role. Maybe Cahil can after learning a few things from JT.

He played well with england defending deep and getting men behind the ball. He plays this superbly for chelsea too as people cannot get in behind him with pace.

However as we look to play more offensively this season, we will not be looking to drop so deep. This creates space behind terry which makes him extremely vulnerable. Against the big teams he still has a role to play with his experience but against smaller teams looking to play us on the counter at pace, i would choose luiz and cahill at the back.
