Chelsea skipper Terry: Could be worse. We could be Liverpool

Chelsea captain John Terry has told fans not to write them off - and in the process took a big swipe at Liverpool. The captain admits the Barclays Premier League champions are in danger of surrendering the title if they cannot halt their slide.

"We went three years without winning the Premier League and we got it back last season," said Terry.

"The celebration after that, the feeling of winning and getting our hands on that trophy, was unbelievable. It was like the first time we'd won it.

"The players realise if we don't start winning again soon, we're going to be giving it away to Manchester United, who are not playing well, or to Arsenal, who are not playing well.

"I don't think any team can say they are playing well. The good thing is we're not like Liverpool. We're not out of it. We're still in with a very good chance and we certainly have the ability and the players to go to places like Tottenham or Arsenal and get great wins like we've done in previous years."
