Terry got Defender of the Year.Whoop whoop!
sympathy award ,Puyol should have gotten it![]()
Whatever dude. Don't be a classless twit like those scummy Mancs. He fully deserves it. Anyway - no defence managed to contain Barca as long as HIS defence did. See the light, just because you support 'Pool, doesn't mean you have to scrape the bottom of the barrel with regards to opinions![]()
On a serious note ,VIDIC should have won the awardTerry def didnt deserve that award ,TRUE STORY

John Terry gets a major new salary bump. He could practically copy Gerrard's Chelsea chapter to his autobiography and swap Chelsea with Manchester City.
It's not even close to the Gerrard - Chelsea saga.
Yes but if you remember the Gerrard one, he officially announced he was off to Chelsea, only to come out the next day at a press conference and say that he has changed his mind.
The Terry one was far from that. Terry never even thought about going there, whereas Gerrard actually at one point was officially on his way.
I agree, Terry used Man City for his personal benefit. Gerrard actually believed at some point that he wanted to play for Chelsea.
Listen mate, I still think you're missing the point. Going on what I read in his autobiography, he had to do that simply because the Liverpool board were trying to be hardasses. You really think if Abramovich didn't take care of it personally, that Terry wouldn't have done the same? I'm not that blind to His Terryness. The board response was different. Even with the Lampard "Saga"... He could have conceivably gone to Inter - but he didn't. The basic principles are the same... the window dressing (the game of he said/she said) is irrelevant.
EDIT: "Gerrard actually believed at some point that he wanted to play for Chelsea." - Change that to believed he could play for Chelsea out of spite for how he was being treated is more true...
I've thought about it and I think you're right.
Looking back, Gerrard did use Chelsea for his advantages. The only difference is that it went a bit further than in Terry's case.
Much appreciated.
