Blues are feared again, insists Terry

CAPTAIN John Terry insists Chelsea are becoming a feared team once more as he prepares to lead Carlo Ancelotti’s side through an 11-day period that could go a long way to defining their season.

Terry wants the Blues to rise to the challenge and get through four games without a blemish. Victory over Porto will earn Chelsea first place in Group D but Terry is also casting his eye over two Premier League blockbusters against Arsenal and Manchester City as well as a quarter-final Carling Cup tie against Blackburn.

Some of his England colleagues have already told Terry that, under Ancelotti, Chelsea are becoming a side to be feared again and Terry is prepared for real battle over the next 11 days.
