John Terry

[Eeyore]

So? He's a person, not a football club.

Tribal thinking is the problem in football and the world generally.

The above. Tribal affiliation is learnt behaviour. Folk should try and rise above that.

 

[Machiavelli]

Its the perfect move for him

Yes, they fully deserve each other.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

His travelling family caravans would go well on the desert.

They'd probably be well-advised not to go on any shoplifting sprees

 

[Slum_Wolf]

Here’s hoping he goes full-kit wanker, ceremonial dagger and all.

Look forward to his first press conference...

[Live by the sea]

He was never going to turn down a big contract in Saudi ,

Joey Barton as assistant?

Another one 'not doing it for the money'

To be fair that's probably nearer the mark. A Saudi team is the only one stupid enough to employ him therefore a good managerial opportunity for him.

"A different challenge" is what they call it now

 

[Triggaaar]

If Saudi want their league to compete with the best, you'd think that getting decent managers would be at the top of the list. Instead they bring in failure (Gerrard) and beginner.

Lampard and Sami H next in list of managerial legends? Or even better - Pardew!
