April 17, 20179 yr Inevitable he was leaving, end of an era, legend. Hope he is off abroad for a mega pay day.
April 17, 20179 yr Well, I don't want to sound harsh but I'm not surprised. It's still a shock to hear it confirmed though. I had assumed John would retire and join the coaching staff at the end of the season but it's clear, from reading his statement, that he wants to continue playing.
April 17, 20179 yr I always hoped Terry would retire at Chelsea. It just doesn't seem right that he's leaving. What an absolute legend he is. Thank you John
April 17, 20179 yr Thought he was in the process of signing a new one year deal?! lets send him off with another league medal!
April 17, 20179 yr Gutted but we all saw it coming, the greatest centre half this country has ever produced. Captain Leader Legend.
April 17, 20179 yr Quote A true legend is the likes of Joel Matip or Ashley Williams and they have better LEADERSHIP ABILITIES. Watch out folks, the lunatics are out of the asylum on BBC News!

April 17, 20179 yr Will forever be remembered as a Chelsea-legend. For me the biggest one. Captain, leader, legend. Sums it all up for me.
April 17, 20179 yr It's truly an end of an era! I'm on the verge of tears. CAPTAIN, LEADER, LEGEND! I feel honoured for having witnessed his greatness for the past 19 years! Sad day!
April 17, 20179 yr The greatest leader and captain, wont have another one for decades like him. A living Legend. Thankful for the many great memories. If the team lacked motivation to go on and win the title now.. these news should knock them up and make sure to get that title for John to lift it and send him off properly
April 17, 20179 yr Quite simply the best ambassador and player I have ever seen pulling on our shirt. The biggest legend of them all as far as I'm concerned. we will never see another JT, just glad I was about to watch him grow into the best centre back in the history of English football.
April 17, 20179 yr THE best captain I've ever seen, the heart and soul of the club i love. Thanks for everything big man.
April 17, 20179 yr We need to send him off with a Premier League medal and an FA Cup as well. What a player! Absolute legend!
April 17, 20179 yr No surprise, but doesn't soften the blow...he's been so good for so long, almost taken for granted...now he's going, the reality sets in...we have to replace the best defender AND the best captain we have ever had...misssion impossible

He might even lose his place in the team next season. It's crazy that we haven't got a steady first 11 yet. I miss the days where we were sure of Cech-JT-Carvalho-Cole-Lamps-Ballack-Drogba in the team and we only had to make additions elsewhere. We meed to sort things out this summer.
April 17, 20179 yr The last of the old breed. Once he goes we'll lose our last link to the 04-05 and 05-06 title-winning sides. Matic will be the only player left from the 09-10 double side.

April 17, 20179 yr I feel like my team has left with JT :(. Pretty devstated he won't be retiring at Chelsea. The last player of what I felt was my favourite Chelsea team (Lampard, Terry, Drogba etc.) Really strange feeling.
April 17, 20179 yr The greatest and most successful Chelsea player ever. Forever is a long time, but i just don't see anyone ever being as much of a true blue as Terry has been with us. Truly the greatest club legend we have ever produced. Every club would love to have had him, but he was ours and i loved everything he gave to the club and us fans. He will be missed.
April 17, 20179 yr Probably good timing in terms of giving the fans something extra to concentrate the mind in the run in.
