stay
tribalfooball.com - January 13, 2007
Chelsea captain John Terry is ready to lead a players' meeting with
owner Roman Abramovich in a bid to save Jose Mourinho's job.
Terry told the News of the World: "We all agree that we don't want
Jose to go and if it takes five or six of the senior players to
tell them so, then that's what we're prepared to do.
"Jose is the best in the business, there's no doubt about that, and
I'm sure he will be for the next 20 years. That's what we want at
Chelsea - the best and only the best. So there is no way we want
the best boss around to be walking away.
"We don't want to see top people leaving. Jose Mourinho must
stay.
"We are all loyal to Jose. We know what he as done for us as
players and for this club as a whole. This situation is putting
pressure on everyone at this club."
But Terry added: "I am convinced he will stay. I think he will be
here again next season, I really do. �I don't think he will be
going anywhere."
