I’m more of a leg man myself.

He's starting from the bottom you know!

Interview with JT.


"John Terry says he is loving life as one of Aston Villa's assistant coaches – admitting it's opened his eyes to a whole new level of detail."

I wish he'd spend a bit more time teaching our defence how to defend.

You can't polish a turd. It needs flushing.

Yeah sounds bloody naive though in attempting to do coaching.

This learning on the job is proving tricky and it's disappointing the interview didn't directly ask or simply ask about the defence frailties and also a bit more on his role in helping the defence (or individual players)
Would have been good if they asked about the amount of goals being conceded ?!

Really hasn't shown much apart from he's a happy intern
And wonder if he has any idea of input and communication outside of a player mindset.
He's now a coach who is overseeing a disheveled defence.
And is some way accountable for some of the defence mishaps and poor record of conceding.

I certainly can appreciate and recognise some of the merits as having JT involved as a coach , some continuity but his lack of coaching experience seems to be a concern .

As he's a football man hopefully improve and understand requirements and will help the squad in a coaching capacity .
I think would be good to get in some extra help at this time .

Capello would have failed with Hutton, Elmo and Taylor.

True enough but just some signs that they're improving would be nice.

There's literally zero evidence that any defensive coaching goes on at Bodymoor.

Not sure how coaching can make up for a chronic lack of ability, pace and in Chester’s case fitness.

Tuanzebe wasn't doing too badly either before his injury !

The scale of the mess Bruce left behind should be remembered when commenting on our current coaching staff. It's required a total rebuild of our defence which will take time but it is happening. We've got to stick by them and show a bit of patience. Something us Villa fans are not known for unfortunately.

He couldn't head the ball nor had any positional sense. Very tidy player on the ball which helped us in midfield alright with him stepping up.

Be nice to know quite what Terry is doing to earn his money at the club. Anyone?

I haven’t seen many matches this season, but sounds like we are struggling at the back. That’s terry’s domain?

Earn your fkn salary John

I'm not sure anyone could coach that lot to be as good as we need.

The current state of the Villa's defensive woes is down to Steve Bruce's fuckwittery and Axel's injury
