I think it might be a misinterpretation on your part and that says more about you than it does about me. Not at all. I wasnt misinterpreting anything. Just clarifying my point based on your query.

oh_weds_we_love_you Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 (edited) Worth bearing in mind that Terry was a winner and leader for his boyhood club. There is no guarantee, especially at 36, he'll have that same desire at another club and Terry with a lack of desire would be half the player he's been over the years.

j17tjp Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 I'd have him in the team, JT maybe past his peak in the prem but I've seen Chelsea play a few times in recent yrs and he is class. Maybe not the wife shagging / racism parts of his life, but for football, there's a reason Chelsea have won so many trophies with him as a leader.

ramone Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 I'd have him all day long based on ability. Its John Terry FFS. What are some of you on that you'd turn your nose up at a former England Captain, Multiple PL winner and Champions League winner. You're on crack. The only drawback is I wouldn't be too bothered about chucking 60k-80k a week as is being reported. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about now? 9 games last season, 3 of those as sub. He isn't going to get any better now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coopswfc76 Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Hanley for 5 seasons or Terry for 1 it's not even a close call Terry at 40 will still be a better player than Hanley in his prime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hhhhhmmm ok. Forget Hanley for a minute. I'm sure we can a sign a centre half that will be better than Terry will be when he's 40. Lets see how he fairs next season first before assuming he will still be good at 40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also you surely don't rate Hanley do you? Don't know much about Hanley. Not enough to get excited about him put it that way. Im sure we can sign a centre half who would have better odds of performing better than Terry yes, I think its a step in the wrong direction for us. We already have Loovens at 33. Do we need another CB at 36/37. If Lees gets injured we are stuck with 2 pedestrian centre backs. I would rather us spend some money on 2 CB's at say £30k a week In the mid 20's or they guy we are supposed to be looking at. For me the Villa/Terry thing is nothing more than a business signing. In my opinion money can be better spent on a CB elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
optimisticowl Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Well I received three negatives for having the temerity to suggest him as player manager at Watford, so to even mention his name in connection with SWFC would probably lead to a contract being placed on my head.

coopswfc76 Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Personally 4 CB of Lees, Hutch, Loovens & Terry would be perfect for this league. However if we can sign better great and our priority imo should definitely be pace out wide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes more sense to me than just playing as a CB although management experience could be an issue for them. He could just play if needed although you don't get many of these nowadays it seems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's been sunny lately in the UK but I think you would look a bit odd walking around with a contract on your head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
