John Terry [Merged]

[moomba]

What has having a core of English homegrown players won us so far? I'm interested to know

good point

So we get rid of them regardless of age, their merits and the merits of other targets?

Theres ot been one bit of silverware that we have failed to win because of our academy kids.

So we just scrap the academy and just go the Chelsea / Real route then ?

One thing for sure guys is city must have a degree of confidence because we're still in there for his signature!

Fulhamroad do you not think Terry’s silence has done irreparable damage to his relationship with the owners and the Chelski faithful [withdrew from slaggin off opportunity as i’m in a good mood..] ?

 

[nickson71]

depends what's being said behind closed doors

Fair do's mate but i can't help but think he's trying the boards patience so he doesn't have to ask for a transfer.

He could well be but then again he may have verbally agreed to sign a new contact once back in the UK

we've not got a clue ........ Chelsea fans havn't and neither have the press
we are all waiting for a public statement from Terry

I think this will become more clear once everybody is back in the UK

Shame mate. I think Terry really needs to clear this up as its only the Chelsea fans he is hurting in all honesty.

I know. It sounds stupid, but I wish he realised what he is doing to the fans of the club he supposedly cared about, the club that made him who he is. If he really cared about the club he'd address this- even if it was a statement to say he will announce something soon.

My theory is that if Terry announces a press conference, he is staying at Chelsea because no one in a big transfer saga announces a press conference to say they are leaving, which is why I've changed my mind in thinking Terry will join us because he hasn't spoke. I think he's waiting for City to put in an offer Chelsea can't refuse, if Chelsea reject that offer then Terry will put in a transfer request.

It's removed a degree of respect for him in my opinion. I'm very dissapointed at the moment, but we'll see what happens.

If he went I'd reckon he'd never properly make up with Abramovic.

i never said that did i?? to compete with the best you need the best players in every position.... now tell me which top 4 side Nedum would get in???? I never said sell every young prospect we will ever have did i?

I wonder if Terry himself is as undecided about this as we are? One thing that I know for certain is that if he turns us down we'll be the club signing the next generation of John Terrys and the like.

We've earnt this, let's enjoy it.
ADUG, you'll never fully understand how grateful I am.

Bottom line is the more the press fluctuate the more uncertain the whole saga becomes, i.e he's coming..
