‘When I went into a game, I rarely didn’t have a rib, arm, leg, ankle or some sort of injury – something always hurt’ John Terry admits he was fit for just FIVE of his 717 Chelsea appearances

John Terry in action for Chelsea against Tottenham at White Hart Lane in March 2008.

The defender joined Chelsea as a youth player in 1995 and stayed with the club all the way until 2017, interrupted only by a brief loan spell at Nottingham Forest – and is ranked at no.26 in FourFourTwo's list of the greatest Premier League players of all time.
