John Terry retires from Chelsea at end of season



It is still 15 games away to the end of the English Premier League, but Chelsea captain John Terry has hinted he will be leaving the club.

He dropped the bombshell on Sunday after the club decided not to renew his contract.

“I was in (for talks) last week before the Arsenal game and it is not going to be extended,” Terry, 35, told reporters after his side’s 5-1 win at second-tier Milton Keynes Dons in the FA Cup fourth round.

“It’s not going to be a fairytale ending. I’m not going to retire at Chelsea. It’s going to be elsewhere, which it took me a couple of days to get over.” But he ruled out playing for another premier league club.

Terry has made 696 appearances for Chelsea and is the club’s most successful captain, having won four Premier League titles, five FA Cups, three League Cups, the 2012 Champions League and the 2013 Europa League.

The Special One or The Unique one and Barcelona!


This season has been a very challeging one  for Jose Mourinho, if there is one strong man in the world of football who is always on the front page of News papers, then that man must be Jose Mourinho.

Ever since Mourinho came to Spain to manage the Whites Club"Real Madrid" a lot of pressure has been mounted on Him to deliver good football and win trophies. But one club that has always been a torn in his flesh is FC Barcelona who are loaded with world best players like Lionel Messi, Xavi and Iniesta, who kept denying Him and his player most especially C Ronaldo trophies year in year out.   

Meanwhile, over the years, his hard tackling style of football on and off the pitch has made him many friends and quite a few enemies as well. Take it or leave it, Mourinho can never be ignore base on his style of football and winning attitude.

This season, he started his Laliga campaign on a poor note due to some error and internal issues with his players. Currently they are behind Barcelona with eight points margin, while also competing with other European heavyweights in the champions League, "group of death" which he just have to win every game in order to qualify to the next stage.

Both in Laliga and Champions League there are lost of expectations from Mourinho to deliver, so also are lot  of people are expecting him to fail.

So the BIG ??? now is Can he overcome the 8 point league leader Barcelona?, Can he Overcome the Champions league group of death?, Can he control his porous team where players are having personal issues  with the club and fellow team mates? I hope he find a good answer to this questions... because without a solid answer them, he will be consider a failure this season.

Wishing him and his team all the best this season.
