Chelsea hero Leboeuf proud of Terry career achievements

Chelsea hero Franck Leboeuf says he's proud of Blues captain John Terry.

Leboeuf helped bring through Terry at Chelsea.

"I'm so proud of John Terry," the Frenchman told the Independent on Sunday.

"And I thank him for being so nice to Marcel Desailly and myself in interviews for saying we supposedly brought something to his career. We saw when he was young that he was a warrior and a leader, and when I left he was already knocking at the door. I thought it was time to leave because he was going to kick me out. So I said to him, 'It's your time now' and he did the job."
