...and, possibly, our desire to get our own deals done before the JG transfer news broke.

Terry made a bad mistake  leaving.  I reckon he would have got the job on a caretaker basis when smith was sacked.

Now he demoted to a small role at chelsea
I disagree with that. I think he’s going about his managerial career in just the right way, learning as he goes, without jumping into the top job like others have done and failed. I think he’ll be a top manager/coach when he does decide to take the leap having gained a really good apprenticeship with us and now Chelsea.

so from assistant first team coach to consultant to the Youth Team.
Looks like he is plan B if and when they get fed up of Tuchel.

Let’s face it, he’s where he ultimately wants to be. He’s building up a lot of valuable experience in the process and will be really well placed when a managerial position comes up.

He's going to have to take the plunge at some point with a manager's job. Not saying I can't see Chelsea taking a punt on him randomly just because that sort of thing happens. Maybe he's weighing up which is more risky, waiting for that to happen or taking a job and failing at it so he never gets considered.

He should go to Blues once their current fella fulfils his destiny of managing the Hades national side. A perfect fit.

No surprise he has chosen today to post this. Never been able to locate his moral barometer.
Appallingly tasteless.

As clumsy and unbelieveably ill-timed as it is, I think it's just his way of saying thanks. Not very well thought out at all to say the least but that's all I think it is.

Judging by the majority of the comments below his post, rooms in Chelsea think a bit differently to the rest of the civilised world.

It probably is that, but as Cliftonville says above, he needs to learn to read the room. It's enormously insensitive and tone deaf.
