John Terry - Gone

[Toronto Villa]

I think he's played a blinder. Slowly integrated himself in the club, not made a huge issue of his presence, never making it about him, quietly encouraging and leading. Quite the opposite of everything we thought might happen. He's made us a lot more solid. If we go up he won't be with us. I think he came in for one last go, and if he carries on playing it will be in the US. But casting aside his past reputation for a moment and just judging him on the here and now, he's been very good, and easily the best defender at this level.

Good points. Like most I had reservations about the signing but his ability shows in every game; 6 played in September and only one conceded is the proof of his contribution. He is he best defender at this level, as you say ,and with Chester it is the best centre back pairing,

He's been phenomenal for us there's no denying it.

[Toronto Villa]

His distribution, especially for a CB is quite outstanding.

His distribution, especially for a CB is quite outstanding.

He likes the left diagonal for sure, and he delivers it.

Watching him at Chelsea I didn't fully realise what a great footballer he is. His ability to bring down a ball and then move it on with the minimum of fuss is fantastic, and unlike a number of the midfielders he very rarely gives the ball away. One disappointment is that he is yet to weigh in with goals from corners.

[Matt Collins]

He was always tidy on the ball at Chelsea

He looks great on the ball for us because the overall standard and degree of pressing is just a lot worse

[OCD]

He's done some despicable things in the past but he's shown a maturity since he's been with us. I'm sure he could still be doing a good job at quite a few Premier League clubs so it's good that we have him.

Terry

I work 3 days per week in Manchester (including stop overs when required) and 2 days in Brum - there is no way I would uproot my family and move there full time so the business compromises. I see no problem with this with JT as long as his performances warrant it and up to now he has been (IMHO) the consummate professional - I agree with Dave when he was first announced it was 100% JT in the media so maybe a low profile is exactly what was needed. Watch him during a game and never stops barking orders out.

Bruce

Like the man but hate the football - But like Terry, if the results and performances are ok I could not give a toss if he is there or not

Ha likewise pal. I work three days a week at home in Brum and 2 days a week in Manchester!

I am particularly pleased with the way he is trying to win over fans. Game by game by just being professional and the best defender on the pitch.

Also ... well call me gullible if you like but when he did his little fist pump to the away fans at Burton I thought it meant something to him. .

[Chris Jameson]

Only way he'll ever win me over is if he were to give me the cash to buy my ex out, erase the memory of ever hearing anything by the band Muse, does the recycling every other week and fixes the flushing mechanism on the toilet. Even then I know he doesn't stand a chance of winning me over.

[pauliewalnuts]

I never really noticed how good he was at Chelsea, because my mind was - understandably at the time - mostly focused on what a ****** he was.

He's been very good for us, though, long may it continue.

[Drummond]

He's a c**t, but he's our c**t.

[tomd2103]

His distribution, especially for a CB is quite outstanding.

He likes the left diagonal for sure, and he delivers it.

Could be a very good option for us, especially if it leaves Snodgrass isolated one-on-one with defenders most of the time. 

[ASHTONVILLA]

He has been excellent, if we go up this season it will because we don't let many goals in. I also think he would fine at Prem level for another season if we went up.
