He was left exposed throughout the first half by all of Azpi, Zouma and Matic. He had to dive into challenges at times because he knew he would get beaten for pace 10 times out of 10 against Cabella and Sissoko.

Not to say he didn't make any mistakes.

Kompany is always exposed with yaya, zabaleta, and kolorov bombing forward as is all the city cbs and the arsenal cbs..

Because chelsea setup protects the cbs, doesnt make them world class or top of the league cbs.

Yeah, but you're forgetting that the club was getting tax cuts by listing Terry's wages as charity....   What the actual fuck are you even talking about? Yeah, Terry has been basically leaching o

No, but defending consistently brilliant in Chelsea's system makes him one of the best in the league.

Defence is a TEAM game ,,, it starts with high pressing from Costa .. Oscar ,, Willian ... backed then by Matic ,,

BUT the back line is ORGANISED by Terry and NO ONE does that better ,, Still you will find something to carp about ...

True. As I said before, I never questioned leadership and organization, however, you have to admit, Jt is on his last legs and is slow and will be exposed on a grander scale sooner than later, which is why chelsea need 2 cbs soon

I have to agree. There's no question about JT's leadership and organization skills, but we're badly exposed on every counterattack. Because of our slow CBs, we can't play high line effectively and keep the initiative without risking to concede every time we lose the ball.

Can you imagine playing Madrid in the champs league...

Only way to win is to park the bus again.

He's been on his last legs since 2010 apparently.

Arsene Wenger says modern football has few defensive leaders

Cited Terry and...Cahill from the current crop..

because Wenger knows so much about defending... :rolleyes:

Terry is indeed a leader, but before that, he's a very good player and defender.

Jose would say he's the specialist in a very different category. :)
