John Terry responded to a Chelsea fan's claim that Thomas Tuchel is the best manager in Chelsea’s history:

“No, my friend, that’s not true. Everyone knows who the best in Chelsea’s history is. He made me, he made Lampard, he made Drogba, and he told us we were the best! Whether he actually believed that or not, I don’t know! But he was the best.

When he arrived at Chelsea, we were doing the kind of training I see coaches doing now. People are just realizing what he was doing back then. He was way ahead of the game!

One time, he told us Barcelona's lineup two days before we played them, and when Barcelona announced their actual lineup, everyone in the dressing room was shocked. From that moment, we believed we were going to win.

Mourinho and Chelsea—what a great story that never fully finished ."
