Terry is the rock at the heart of the Chelsea defence, they’re infinitely harder to beat when he’s there. Crap at penalties though...
Since graduating from the Chelsea academy with a debut against Aston Villa in 1998, the Blues captain has established himself as the heartbeat of the club.
Described by former Chelsea manager Claudio Ranieri as the most natural captain he’d ever seen, Terry has led Chelsea during the most successful period in their history, featuring back-to-back Premier League titles in 2005 and 2006.
Not afraid to stick his head where most would be scared to put their foot, Terry’s all-action approach, coupled with excellent positioning and aerial dominance at both ends of the pitch makes the 2005 PFA Player of the Year one of Europe’s top centre-backs.
