It's like they have been waiting there with pens at the ready for another Chelsea player to come out with a quote to swarm all over. Instead of taking the whole interview into context, the headlines you are seeing all over the net this afternoon is that Terry says that "Chelsea aren't strong enough!" blah blah blah.
John Terry actually said:
"We've missed some key players at key times and it is a case of keeping everyone fit now over the Christmas period, where we have two games in three days. In the past, we had a big squad and could rotate and put other players in. We don't have that now, we have quite a young squad and it's a time for everyone to stay together like we always will.I think it's fair to say that it's been the Key players getting injured or suspended and the total amount of players missing that have hit Chelsea hard. I don't think for example the squad isn't strong enough at all really as this is the first time in years we have had to deal with the amount of injuries we've had this season.
Once we've turned that corner, we can move on from there and wait for other teams to slip up, which they will do. We have a tough game away at Arsenal, which could prove to be very difficult, but we're just one game from moving on. Recent form isn't something you can pinpoint, but we know it hasn't been good enough and we'll improve.
Teams go through bad spells throughout the season. Arsenal have dropped points at home, and we've done the same, games we should have won. Sunderland at home was a poor performance but I don't think, overall, too much has gone wrong, we've had some tough games. We dropped points against Everton last year, we lost at Tottenham last year and still came out champions."
As he says, now those players are making their way back we should be stronger and get ourselves back to the top of the Premier League.
Terry mentions the hard game that us Chelsea fans know we have on Monday night even though the Arsenal responses I have had on here in THIS POST are somewhat surprising.
I think Carlo will invest in the squad in January and I have asked you if you had the money who you would bring into the club so if you haven't already have your say here.
What do you think? Is it a case of us being weaker this season, or unlucky with alot of injuries to key players at the same?
