Terry: Grant should stay

Terry: Grant should stay

John Terry believes that Avram Grant should stay at the club after helping Chelsea to the final of the Champions League in Moscow and after defeating Premiership rivals Liverpool at Stamford Bridge.

Terry quipped: "It is for the club to make that decision, but results don't lie. You look at the Premier League table since the manager has taken over and they have been very good. We can only do our best and that's what we have done to get to the Champions League final.

"Avram plays a massive part along with the players, Steve Clarke, Henk ten Cate, the fans and everyone at the club. It is a credit to ourselves and the way we have dealt with things this year because at times it has not been easy.

"I think [Grant] deserves respect and rightly so. It is the first time in the club's history we have got to a Champions League final - it has never been done by any manager or set of players before and he does deserve it.

"To get to where we are and still question the manager's role at the club is unbelievable."
