Chelsea boss Ancelotti: Terry winner most important goal of season

Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti believes John Terry's winner at Burnley could be the most important goal of the season.

Terry is under huge pressure since Friday's revelations about his private life.

"He’s a strong man and a fantastic professional player," said Ancelotti.

"Anyone can have a problem and it’s important to stay focused on his job and he’s done this.

"That is his private life. This is about work. We don’t have to say anything because he’s very professional, a fantastic captain and he did a fantastic job for us. All of us at Chelsea support him and his family.

"I don’t have to manage anything. John has his private life. He has to control his private life.

"I have to control my team, He is a player in my team. He is the captain of this team and I am honoured and very proud to manage John Terry.

"Every game he plays, he plays very well and also tonight. He did the important part for us.

"John Terry is special. This was a difficult game and he scored a fantastic goal, which maybe could be the most important goal of the season.

"Maybe this is a sign of the destiny of the Premier League title."
