Lamps has a competition in Turnbull!

Full kit wanker. Well I'd rather JT lift the trophy than BOSSingwa.

It seems we're going to endure a repeat of this season regarding contract renewals. I wonder how many people in the media will leap to JT's defense this time lol

Had to be Terry in the middle of it though, didn't it?

It's going to be a pain in the ass, isn't it ? It'll be long and boring. And I can already fashion how it will be : the medias will do a u-turn and will "root" for Terry just so they can criticize us while Terry and his agent will play the "victim card" just like Lampard and his agent have done. Unnecessary dramas are lying ahead, I'm afraid.

Will be very interesting to see how Jose handles it if he really is coming..

Telegraph reporting John Terry has been lined up with a move to Monaco.

[LDN Blue 7,903]

.. I'm sure he has.

[Hutcho 8,443]

Lol. So Jose Mourinho comes back. The manager who probably admires him the most and whom he most admires and now he is gonna move to Monaco. If Rafa had stayed then maybe, but with Mourinho back I can't see that being likely.

Just for the sake of seeing another point of view (not mine) we could look at it this way; If Mourinho sees Terry as not being pertinent to the squad any more, Monaco would be an attractive project for Terry. Remember it was Ranieri who first gave Terry his debut and integrated him into the squad when Terry began to rise as a Chelsea regular. Yes, Mourinho made him permanent captain but it was actually Tinkerman who first assigned him the armband in Desailly's absence.

It wouldn't be the most illogical move in the world. Not to mention the idea of making around £200,000/week, tax free at his age for a year

Yeah. And I am sure that is probably the lines that the reporter is going along.

The money would be tempting for anyone sure. But for all JT's many flaws which causes many to hate him, leaving somewhere solely for money probably isn't one of them. He loves this club so much that I just can't perceive him leaving especially at this point in time. Especially to a club that only just got promoted to the French league.

I personally think we will have two more seasons of JT. This one where he will be a fringe player who Jose will utilise to lock up games with 20 Mins or so to go and lead the team which he has to be the best at.

I think he will get another 1 year deal on a reduced wage, and have a similar role for that season, if slightly more reduced. Before leaving to USA or whatever to end his career like what Beckham did etc.

Yeah, I don't see it happening either, but it's logical. 2 seasons is very optimistic, I think we'll definitely get something from him this season in terms of a transition. The thing is, Lampard sort of 'earned' his contract with goals at times when they were needed and obviously to lure Mourinho it was needed. However Terry's been a scarce in the starting XI under Rafa and unless Mourinho plays him like 50-60% of the season, I don't see him being offered a new deal.

Also depends on politics. The whispers about Roman being annoyed at Lampard regarding Villas-Boas weren't baseless and if that's what was hindering contract talks then Terry should be fine in that regard. It will be crucial to observe whether the Board will take on Mou's opinion about contract extensions or not.

I think that is a very reasonable reading of the situation. John's playing days are numbered due to his injuries

Can't see him playing very long at the highest level unfortunately. Maybe he should retire when his contract expires next summer.
