Fulham Broadway 17,312 Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Looking at the Everton game and his lapses of recent concentration in Milan -I'm guessing he was forewarned about Bridge opting out of England scenario etc. if I was Ancellotti I would be seriously considering replacing him with Alex for Citeh game. I know hes a strong bloke, but hes now going to be the pantomine villain as far as other clubs are concerned for some time now, and some City players could be out for some kind of misguided retribution. Hes going to get verbals guaranteed...Hope hes as psychologically strong as he is physically... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NattyBlue 44 Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Yeah after the 2nd I remember...joined in, but we didn't combat the boo's well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray. 217 Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Yeah after the 2nd I remember...joined in, but we didn't combat the boo's well!Really pisses me off that they (the opposition fans) feel the need to keep booing JT. Ffs it's old news, just give the guy a break. I'm sure I read somewhere this week a report that quoted Frank as saying the more that they boo JT, the more he wants to strive and do well. Certainly worked against Stoke didn't it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinda lame now.Old news etcBleh read in the Mirror bloody Terry Sherddiams verdict.How he reckons JT shouldnt play in the world cup due to 'distactions' and how Rio,Carrick some other Man U/Liverpool player should play instead..funny that seeing who he used to play for!

Kez 2,727 Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Lamps has already said before when West Ham fans boo him it makes him play better and punish them more.Booing will damage them the fans booing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northernblue 2 Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 John Terry thinks Chelsea need to go one better that this season by winning the Champions League in 12 months time. The Chelsea skipper led Carlo Ancelotti’s side to their first ever domestic double, claiming the Premier League and FA Cup. However, they failed to progress far in the Champions League and were knocked out in the quarter-final stage by former boss Jose Mourinho’s Inter Milan. Terry said that there is “no doubt” around Stamford Bridge that Roman Abramovich wants to win the Champions League. “We must get it next season even though he is delighted with the double and we’re determined to do it. If we can add the Champions League to that list, the fans, players, management and Roman would be very happy,” said the captain.Source:Premier League football blogLooks like the Champions League is Roman's priority next season then. Would anyone sacrifice the league if it meant we could win the Champions League???Or should we just be greedy an go for everything!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kostas 1,468 Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 I know this may be kinda premature but is the finest defender of the recent Chelsea years in (a sharp) decline?He was never the most pacy defender(except when he was playing alongside Desaily) but he's still in his late 20s and looks like he lacks the needed pace and agility against top sides.Even in his prime his positioning wasn't the best in the world but his mentality and teamwork made up for that and made him a world class defender.We shouldn't take the England games in consideration but he hasn't been the defender he was 2 years ago for quite some time now,last year we could lay the blame on the whole Bridge thing and this year on the lack of fitness but I'm trying to look at the whole picture.On the bright side he's got bags of experience now and will use it if he's concentrated enough.I've been arguing for quite some time now that he need a pacy and fresher defender next to him and his partnership with Alex doesn't convince me as being world class because neither of them is quick.Hopefully Ivanovic will be what he needs but he's not as good as Carvalho was in his prime.

zolayes 14,489 Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 JT s form is a concern ..a lot seems to be lack of concentration..I think this could be his last season as automatic number 1 pick at cb.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostas 1,468 Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Dropping him might be quite hard as he's the captain and a Chelsea legend,he's also the only one organizing our backline for the past 5 years or so,Cech is one of the few top goalkeepers who can't do that.Two of the best defenders of the past decade,Maldini and Nesta,had extended primes under Ancelotti and I remember Carlo saying that JT and Maldini are similar but their defensive play is quite different and I'm not too optimistic about JT's ability in his mid 30s.Terry is a stereotypical English defender while both Milan stars were all about positioning.

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 I think we're a bit too skeptical about Terry's performances. He's still a great, inspirational, captain but his form has to be highlighted. I'm concerned about the game next weekend because he's taking part in the England game, it means he won't be 100% fit.

BRMC 12 Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Hes 29 its all going to be alright guys! The seasons not yet begun yet hes probably just a little rusty, give it a few weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Prefer Carvalho, Alex and Ivan as defenders, but no-one can beat Terry's passion, commitment and his quality of leadership. He's a very good defender and a great captain, enough said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
