TRO Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 I don't see JT coming back playing....that boat has sailed and I think he knows that too. He wants to concentrate on his next career phase. If he did play, I think also SB would be miffed, not that that matters to us....but friends it might. I also think coaches get no where near the salaries players get....so he wouldn't do that for a coaches salary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Terry Former England and Chelsea captain John Terry says he is several years away from becoming a manager. And he also insists he is intimidated at the prospect of working as Dean Smith's assistant at Aston Villa rather than Smith being intimidated by him. "I have aspirations to be a manager one day," said Terry, 37. "But that is in four or five years - I'm nowhere near the finished article. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post rodders0223 Posted October 16, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 16, 2018 Just seeing JT in that interview gives me a raging b***r. You see these tracksuits, and if you're overweight and middle aged it just looks tragic, if you're a thin lad you just look ill and scrawny, but when you get a man like JT wear one, who fills it out in all the right ways, then it just looks magnificent. Magnificent. Cannot wait to see him, chest puffed out, walking to the bench on Saturday. Oh, and I also hope he does a decent job as assistant manager. 3 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is clear that this is the first time that he has seen or been a part of the hours before and after the actual training session and the levels of preparation involved (calling it a real eye opener). JT is not the sort of chap that you associate with being intimidated and that he has admitted as much is quite heartening for a couple of reasons. One is that if the amount of planning an preparation that Smith is putting in is enough to intimidate JT, then I'm glad to hear it, we are in need of a plan. Another is that it makes Terry that little bit more human again, he even seems a little nervous about how much he has to learn and it has made him slightly more endearing. Not that I need to like him for him to be good at his job, but on average I'd prefer it if the people associated with the club come across well. The last point for me is that this is the first time I have lost that slight disappointment of what might have been if Henry had become the Villa boss. Watching JT's (understandable) first day nerves contrasts very well with the very pragmatic and experienced way that Dean Smith and Richard O'Kelly came in and ran the session and the media circus around their first day. They were clearly ready to go on day one with what they wanted to do and appear unfazed by the size of the job. I know Henry has been an assistant coach for a while now, but I can't help but feel that his first day as the man in the hot seat will have more of the nervous anticipation of JT than the calm head of Smith. The idea of Henry as coach was really exciting to me (in as sort of "sod it I'm mortgaging the house and putting all the money on red" sort of way) and he has all the attributes to go on and be really great. Today though I am content with the decision that we have made. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am happy an experienced head is in......coupled with the expectancy of convincing football. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
