Terry desperate to end Chelsea Euro jinx

Chelsea captain John Terry is desperate to put to bed their Champions League jinx.

Terry is regularly asked about whether the club are jinxed in the Champions League and he doesn't want to add another tie with Manchester United to the list.

"I am fed up talking about it being just one of those things," the skipper told the London Evening Standard. "I am so desperate to win it but we need that bit of luck. Time is on our side but, hopefully, we will get that this year.

"There have been many years where we have played well and got knocked out and others played badly and got through. It is a strange game especially in this competition.

"It's about being solid throughout and at times getting a bit of luck because we have certainly been the better team at home to Barcelona and not got the luck we deserved. It happened in previous years against Liverpool as well and obviously with the final against Manchester United. I just aim to go one step further."
