Former Bournemouth boss Harry Redknapp says John Terry would be ideal for the manager's job at Dean Court.

Aston Villa No2 Terry is being linked with the Cherries after this week's dismissal of Jason Tindall.

Redknapp said on talkSPORT: "If I were chairman and looking for a new manager, John Terry would have been at the top of my wish list.

"I do not know what his ambitions are, but I would think that he has thoughts of becoming a manager himself one day.

"I cannot think of a better club to take over than Bournemouth if you are to start a coaching career."
