He said: “John Terry is John Terry and Chelsea and England can be proud he’s their captain.
“For me, he’s someone who gives a good example, who doesn’t say many things without backing them up.
“I see the players through their action and their behaviour. He’s injured but wanted to continue even in the last game. He wants to play for the team and give everything he can.
“He’s brave, he’s a nice guy and his commitment is incredible. We need John Terry and he’s here for us.”
