John Terry has aimed a brutal dig at Arsenal on Twitter by claiming that they have ‘gone missing’ for the last 20 years following Piers Morgan’s comments about Chelsea’s spending under Todd Boehly and their current league position.
The Chelsea legend stated that ‘I have won more trophies since I retired playing Golf than Arsenal have’, as he also warned that there is still ‘a long way to go’ in their Premier League title race with Manchester City.
Mikel Arteta’s side, who signed Jorginho from Chelsea on deadline day, are sitting top of the tree in English football.
Across London, even though Chelsea owner Todd Boehly spent a crazy amount in the summer, it only resulted in Thomas Tuchel getting the sack and Graham Potter coming in, only to struggle himself.
Fast forward to the present, the West London club have splashed even more money during the January transfer window, as well as a British record fee for Enzo Fernandez.
Chelsea are sitting tenth in the Premier League table, despite all of that, a staggering 21 points behind their neighbours and Premier League leaders, who have played a game less, with Terry posting the following message and response to Piers Morgan.
CAN JORGINHO HELP ARSENAL WIN THE TITLE?
Arsenal might not have landed their number one midfield target – Moises Caicedo, but that doesn’t mean Jorginho can’t help them to the title this season.
In years gone by, from Willian to David Luiz, the Gunners have had a very bad habit of signing ageing Chelsea players, who then proceed to come to the Emirates and flop.
Well, Arsenal fans will be hoping 31-year-old Jorginho is the exception because there are big expectations on his shoulders.
And if the Gunners do get over the line, then that’s the European Cup, European Championships and the Premier League title Jorginho will have to his name, as well as their own first league title in nearly 20 years.
