Terry has sights on Chopper's total
Thursday, Apr 27, 2006
John Terry has declared his ambition to become Chelsea's highest
appearance maker of all-time.
The Chelsea captain currently stands on 271 games played, still a long
way off Ron Harris' record of 795 appearances. Another who has skippered
the club, 'Chopper' Harris played for 19 years but with Terry set to hit
the 50 games in a season mark for the third year running this weekend,
the 25 year-old believes the target is within reach.
“I would love to get there,” he told Chelsea TV. “Everyone knows I want
to stay at Chelsea for the rest of my career and fingers-crossed, if I
stay fit and away from injuries I’ll be on target.”
While it is more often team-mate Frank Lampard who gains plaudits for his
durability, Terry, who has been quoted as wishing to emulate Milan's Paolo
Maldini as a legendary one-club man, has played more Chelsea games than
anyone this season.
“I am delighted to have stayed fit for three seasons and to have played
that many games,” he says. “I missed out on the last two games of last
season because of a foot operation but hopefully I can continue all the
way this season.
“I had little niggles when I was younger. Nothing too serious, two or
three weeks and then I was back in training. I'm glad now I can go out
there every day and keep away from those niggles now I've done my growing.
“I've learnt good eating and things like that from people like Franco
[Zola] and it all put together is helping.”

Captain looks to Bridge factor to see Blues home
Friday, Apr 28, 2006
The man who will lead the Chelsea team out for the potential championship
decider on Saturday lunchtime has backed rock solid home form and the
Stamford Bridge crowd to see the players to the finishing line.
For Chelsea to retain the Premiership trophy this weekend, the team need
only to do what it has done for the past two seasons — avoid defeat at
home in the league.
“When the manager came in, he said he wanted to make Stamford Bridge a
fortress, make it difficult for teams to come here and get points,”
recalled John Terry just before final training ahead of the Man United
game. “And we have certainly done that!
“The fans will be massively important. They have played a part for the
last couple of years and our home record speaks for itself. The home fans
have been great, away from home as well. It is going to be a great
atmosphere and we want to get things wrapped up for the fans tomorrow.
“To retain it would be good in itself but it will be great to win it at
home. To do it against Man United makes it extra special.”
Terry revealed that he had long expected a tighter race this season than
last. If Chelsea do win the league this Saturday, it will have taken one
more game to do so. At the start of the season the skipper had a feeling
this fixture could turn out to be a very big match.
“No disrespect to anyone but I did see Man United as our main rivals this
year. When they went through a sticky patch early on, for them to look at
the table must have been quite disheartening, especially when they were
winning but we were winning also and they couldn't catch us.
“But they have been on a great run and have put us under quite a bit of
pressure coming into the final stages.”
That pressure eased when Man United dropped two point at home to
Sunderland on Good Friday, followed by two consecutive Chelsea victories.
Since then there has been the immensely-disappointing FA Cup semi-final
defeat by Liverpool at Old Trafford — but that is out of the system.
“I don't think anybody spoke all the way home from Manchester to London,”
reports Terry. “I think that said it all, but fair play to the manager,
we have started again and we have had a really good week of training. The
semi has all been forgotten about, morale is very good and the lads are
buzzing and excited about the game tomorrow.”
Maniche returns to the Chelsea squad for the game having completed a
three-match suspension.
