Get JT Involved at Some Point Soon

It’s expected that Terry is likely to return against Peterborough in the FA Cup game.  He is needed sooner.  It’s indicative of Aston Villa’s current plight that a 37-year-old is integral for success.  James Chester needs an experienced player to play with him. Aston Villa need Terry’s gravitas and nous to make them tick. Even if he’s just on the bench, having John Terry in the side would be positive.
