Terry: Russia tougher test

Terry: Russia tougher test

11 September 2007 - 16:03

England and Chelsea captain John Terry has declared that England must be wary of Russia as they are a much more difficult test for England. Terry hoped that England continue to raise their game against the better opponents.

  • Predicted Chelsea line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Aston Villa, Palmer starts
  • Chelsea ready to sell four home-grown players

  • "Russia are a much more organised side, maybe a lot better (than Israel)," Terry said. "But we rose to the challenge at the weekend and we have got to do it again."



    "When the pressure is really on, we do rise to it," Terry said. "Against Israel, right from the word go we set the tempo and put them under a lot of pressure early on and got the crowd right behind us.



    "They felt the pressure and that was our mentality before the game. If we get something similar against a good side, it will affect their game."
