Chelsea boss has no problems with Terry playing against Arsenal

Andre Villas-Boas can see no reason why Chelsea captain John Terry should not take his place in the starting line-up for tomorrow's clash with Arsenal.

The England international has been the subject of plenty of media speculation and innuendo this week as his case for alleged racism toward QPR's Anton Ferdinand continues to be investigated but the Blues boss feels there are no problems with him taking on the Gunners.

"I see no reason why not," Villas-Boas said.

"Not in the sense of his state of mind - never."

And Villas-Boas says the club have done their bit for the investigation and will now move on as it is in the hands of the Football Association.

"I don't know what it's become," he added.

"For me, it's the end of the matter and it's under FA investigation and hopefully we can put an end to it."
