Terry will stay in contact with Villas-Boas

Chelsea club captain John Terry will stay in contact with former manager Andre Villas-Boas, despite the Portuguese coach being fired just nine months into the role at Stamford Bridge.

Villas-Boas' departure had been fuelled by rumours of disagreements with several members of the playing staff at Chelsea, but Terry remained one player who will stay in contact.


"I'm still in contact with him - like a lot of players here - and probably will remain that way," Terry said.


"He won't be forgotten. It's disappointing, really, because we would have loved things to go on and he had a vision and a plan and, unfortunately, that gets cut short with disappointing performances from us.


"At the end of the day, we're the ones out there performing and we weren't performing as well as we could do."
