So after the weeks and weeks of rumour and speculation its seems as though the word coming from inside Chelsea is that JT will be speaking out soon and making his intentions known about his future and word is he is staying at Chelsea. Obviously this is just rumour, and nothing has been confirmed until Terry speaks out but like i have mentioned before its about time.
But, let's think about it, has he done the right thing for himself in keeping quiet and speaking with the club and Roman first and sorting whatever needed to be sorted out there before he say anything in public. I was watching Chelsea TV tonight and Scott Minto made a really good point. He said what if JT had come out at the beginning of all this and said something and then had to backtrack!?
I know its been hard and frustrating for all of us reading all the stories and wanting JT to come out and put em to bed including me but today it seems that all the wait has been worthwhile. Reports are in press that Chelsea have offered parity with Frank Lampard on a reported 150,000 a week to persuade him to stay and this has been accepted.
To me, this is a complete no brain er. How many times do we have to say it JOHN TERRY IS CHELSEA. He is the heartbeat and lifeblood of our side. If you haven't seen it already, have a look at the video post from Chelsea's you tube channel which I posted on my blog yesterday of the youngsters at the club's initiation into the club led by and insisted by John Terry. All the staff and players from all levels were there to watch and get involved and create a very special atmosphere at the club led by John Terry again.
I can only see one reason as to why he would have to think about the move to City and that's just money and nothing else. The huge sums reported today (£1m per month) are ridiculous but obviously are something to consider.
But, football is the winner and of course JT's loyalty to the club. He has always said its in his heart and the club he wants to spend the rest of his career at and quite frankly for me this is the most important news for Chelsea in the last few years since Roman Abramovich took over the club.
You know, people have said and written that John Terry injury prone and that you will never get a full season out of him. He has back problems and we should take the money blah blah blah. But I can safely say to these people that I would never swap John Terry for any other defender in World Football as there is no one that can replace him.
Let's wait and see what happens in the next few days.
