rodders0223 Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Is he training currently, or is he still injured? I can see the benefit of giving him a good break but wouldn't want him going into the play off games undercooked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lexicon Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Nice assist. Made up for not marking Jerome for his goal, I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted May 4, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted May 4, 2018 If I had to guess, I would have said that John Terry would prefer to have his final playing year being a successful promotion campaign in the championship with a final game at Wembley. Not a bad way to end a career. Rather than a possible relegation battle in the premier league and possibly not featuring as often. So I’m a little bit surprised. Maybe I’ve been looking at it the wrong way, but I would have thought he would want to finish on a relative high. Of course if we are in the premier league, I’ll be more than happy to have his experience around the squad. We’ll need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's proved by coming here, and since he's been here, that he's one of the seemingly few players left in the game who genuinely wants to just play football. I imagine another season of playing at a decent level is more appealing to him than going out on a high. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was happy to play in the championship this year, so why a year on would he not still be happy to do it? Or is it the money? Or he is going to retire rather than play in the championship?

Not sure why "rumours" or possibly a few kids being a bit "soft" should change that. Let me rephrase (Some kids not being able to handle old school rough treatment). Last thing I want is an unwanted Kanye West type viral moment from ill contexted statements. lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
