'Nobody more qualified' - John Terry blasts Chelsea for 'borderline offensive' interim manager snub

When Enzo Maresca and later Liam Rosenior were dismissed, Chelsea chose academy coach Calum McFarlane as interim manager. Piers Morgan labelled the decision to overlook Terry as "borderline offensive". Defending his own credentials, Terry stated: "But when an opportunity comes up and a manager leaves the football club and Chelsea are looking for an interim manager, there was no one in the buildings, the academy building or the first team building, that was more qualified than me in terms of their qualifications."
