John Terry - Gone

[sickbeggar]

I think you mean "nous" of which, Bruce has none with his wrecking of the defence!

well i did check on google for the spelling, probably regional oh i think Bruce is very clever on non-footballing matters - he plays things well to the press at least. I just think if you're a manager looking over your shoulder, you don't bring in a very well known successful footballer looking to move into a managerial role.

The poll should have two options; swipe right or left like his song.

I do not really want John Terry to come back to Aston Villa. If he does then fair enough.

What I do want is a manager who knows what he is doing, and I want the players we have to be drilled in going onto the pitch and kicking the arses (literally or tactically) of any team that we play. I want to see that any team that beats us or draws with us goes away needing 48 hours in an ice-bath or emergency surgery, or six months therapy with Dr Melfi or someone.

This. Terry was great for us last year but that was a pretty good swan-song for him as well and he's 37 so there are no guarantees that he'd be willing or able to do it again.

Other than wishful thinking and a bit of nonsense on Instagram, is there any reason to think this is likely? (I voted yes as we need some fucker who can play CB and he was an all round good influence on our club rather than the foul mouthed, bullying not really a racist I always thought that he was at Chelsea).

I voted no in the original poll last season but voted yes this time around.
His influence at Bodymore Heath and in the Villa dressing room has obviously been missed

I think the same can be said for Snoddy too

It could be argued that a 37/38 year old Terry is no slower than a 33 year old Jedinak.

Bruce was a CB himself. You would think he new the importance of solid quality partnership at the back. There is no way we can get promoted with Jedi playing there. I can believe he did not get one in.

[Risso]

If John Terry was coming wouldn't it have happened already?  Surely the beginning of a two week international break would have been ideal to at least get him training and a couple of practise matches.

That's what I think. Seems odd he's not here. I honestly think Bruce thinks Jedinak is the answer. An utterly ridiculous opinion that is going to cost him his job.

And the club promotion.

[TheMalandro]

I think he'll still come.

He's lost one of his lives if it happens, as he's basically forced the issue through either incompetence or deviousness.

The owners already told him they didn't want Terry.

[XXVilla]

I had a very vivid dream last night that I met John Terry and he told me he wasn’t coming back. Make of that what you will

[cdbearsfan]

Were either of you naked?
