When I was 14 my 12 year old brother a Chelsea fan who was terminally ill with cancer had a wonderful trip to a Chelsea v City game. Chelsea got trounced 3-0 an Aguero hat-trick. After the game we met the players in the tunnel. John was expectional, took great time to talk with my father and brother taking pictures. My brother died 6 weeks later, four days afterwards my family received a hand written letter from John Terry and Chelsea about the experience of meeting my brother and how it impacted him. It was a class act and a superb touch. Myself and my family will always remember John Terry for this and hugely respect him as a man.

Please do everything possible to get Jose Mourinho on the show.
-
Not a Chelsea fan and not bothered about his private life but as a footballer he was absolute class. Committment, energy, leadership, tenacity and reading of the game was second to none. Great defender!
-
Love him or hate him, they simply don't mold mentality like this anymore, JT is a different breed.
-
"Would kick my nan if I could win a tackle" 😂😂😂 love that JT
-
JT's underselling himself, he could ping a ball left foot or right foot, technically he was a brilliant footballer.
-
I love this man. I got to meet him at his charity events. He is so humble and a true leader. JT you are a credit to the beautiful game!
-
You see, its successful players like this that shows Mourinho's success.

Terrific interview this. Always better when Simon lets the guest speak without interrupting. Always asks the hard questions and challenges the guests too.
-
As a gooner i used to hate this man, but he was undoubtedly the best CB ever in the Premier League
-
This has got to be one of the best football conversations out there. JT was, is, and always will be Chelsea ❤
-
The greatest Chelsea captain ever
-
Absolute legend one of the greatest Premier league players ever.
-
JT was a top CB and got the best of players. He is the definition of a football captain. He helped the club to become more competitive.
-
Disliked John for many years. Lesson today is know the man before you judge him. Turns out he’s a balanced, sentient and intelligent person. Sorry John and the very best to you and your family.
-
Mourinho Hazard scenario is different to the Mourinho Inter Milan scenario namely with Eto....the man knew what was required depending on the situation. Genius manager.
-
The best English defender ever, absolute world class in his day and that’s coming from a United fan.
-
I met JT in 2005 before chelsea won the prem in Harrods looking at music CDs, got his autograph I was just a teenager, top bloke
-
Simon is absolutely world class at this. By a million miles the best football pundit. I wish he was on more shows. He's not afraid to tackle John and even wind him up a bit here.
