JOHN TERRY has revealed that he would be interested in the Chelsea job if it came up.
However, he has recommended that his beloved Blues do NOT appoint him.
Terry told snooker legend Stephen Hendry: “I’m done from a managerial point of view.
“The only job I’d come out of retirement for would be the Chelsea job, to be involved in some capacity in the first team.”
Terry is still with the Blues in a part time role as a coaching consultant.
And he said of it: “I love my role at the minute. I’ve got a bit of work where I’m working with the younger players.

“But I enjoy my golf as well. So I want to play a bit of golf and family time as well.”
He added that family circumstances would currently prevent him taking on a full time job as a manager.
Terry commented: “The reason I left [Aston] Villa, I’ve not really said, but was a family reason.

“I had to kind of come back home and be with my family and stuff, just to kind of support them.”
In a very frank admission, the ex-Chelsea skipper even said that other coaches at Aston Villa were better at it than him.
He stated: “I always see myself as a coach in the long term.
“I enjoyed the coaching side of it but I have to say there were better coaches than me.
“We had Craig Shakespeare and Richard O’Kelly at Villa, they were better coaches than me.
“I always saw myself as a manager, but I went for a couple of jobs when I left [Villa], didn’t get those jobs and got a bit deflated with it.
“So I’ve just decided against it.”
