Erm, considering that he's actually the backbone of Chelsea,
will that really be too much to ask for? Remember how miserably
Chelsea had performed whenever they were without him.
But of course, for that kind of money, they could probably find
another defensive backbone... but will it be so easy? Clubs will
try to inflate their players' prices, and the players are also
probably going to try get themselves a ridiculous sum of weekly
wage. Because that's what Chelsea did for their players, and
everyone knows that, and are probably more than ready to exploit
it.
Morever, Ballack and Shev haven't been performing great this season
but yet they get such astronomical weekly wage. Terry must be
thinking that a consistent good performer like him, doesn't deserve
to get only 70,000 pounds per week!
