Chelsea ace John Terry is planning to start a coaching career after hanging up his boots, hoping to take charge of the Blues at some point in the future. The 28-year-old, who has just signed a long-term contract at Stamford Bridge, is considering doing coaching badges so as he can pursue his dream. "I want to go into management after I finish playing, even though it's a lot of pressure," said Terry in the Daily Express. "I would love to be Chelsea manager, and that's the natural progression. I would want to go straight in at the deep end. "I want to do it for the love of football, even though I know that as manager the pressure falls on your head and I know players are a nightmare. "Your playing career goes so quickly and older players have always advised me, 'Take your badges, take your badges', which me, Frank Lampard and Ashley Cole are looking into."
Mourinho Central defender Terry admitted being influenced by veteran coaches Jose Mourinho and Guus Hiddink, who had stints at Chelsea over the past few years. "When Jose Mourinho was at Chelsea, I used to get coaching sessions off him, Guus Hiddink as well. And Chelsea keep records, so I could go back and see what we did in every training session," he added. "But it's good for me to have that folder and those ideas ready to use. "You have to bounce ideas and feelings off the players because they are the ones on the training pitch. That is so important. "It's vital you get feedback and I get feedback off players. When we do a good training session and the lads are saying, 'That was good today' and talking, I'm straight in, writing it down and keeping a record."
