John Terry has given an intimate insight into his coaching methods at Chelsea’s academy – including firing off a barrage of f-bombs. 

The England legend is employed on a rolling basis to recruit and inspire the next generation.

He is Chelsea’s most successful academy product, having made 715 appearances with the first team and won five Premier Leagues and a Champions League, and as a result he has plenty of wisdom to pass to his young charges.

The footage, taken from a bird’s-eye view, includes Terry being recorded with a microphone as he barks instructions to his proteges.

What’s immediately noticeable is just how much he communicates. There is barely a moment that goes by where Terry isn’t shouting encouragement, a command, or a critique.

He shared more than four minutes of footage of him coaching, with a microphone revealing his expletive-lade encouragements, commands, and critiques

‘F****** h***, stay onside,’ he hollers when one forward puts the ball in the net, only to be denied by his early run. 

Meanwhile, one defender is praised for forcing an opponent into a mistake with his pressure, leading to a goal: ‘F****** brilliant, it comes from you that.’

Terry explained that being vocal is key to gaining the edge in a game.

‘The importance and art or communicating on the pitch,’ he wrote on Instagram.

‘Not only does it help your teammates but it keeps you switched on and focused, information on every pass is vital and can be the difference, a simple TIME or TURN can be the difference, words of encouragement or demanding more can also be the difference.

‘As an ex player in my role in the academy at Chelsea, I love getting involved in training and playing alongside the boys.’

His stream of communication is constant – commanding a player when to stay and go, ordering his team-mates into position, booming encouragement after an attacker’s run.

At one point Terry even slides in to stop a striker in his tracks – proof he’s still got it. 

He said it is ‘frustrating’ that he has been denied EFL manager jobs despite applying for a few

For all his passion rearing the next crop of Stamford Bridge hopefuls, Terry recently claimed he finds watching modern football ‘boring’.

‘I don’t sit there and enjoy watching football anymore,’ Terry told talkSPORT. 

‘The guys who started Baller League, the guy called Felix he’s got backers from Germany and across the world, they were fed up of seeing tactical games.

‘Like where teams play against Man City and you get 11 men behind the ball, it’s boring. Man City try and break the other team down, it’s really boring.

‘You don’t see many shots you don’t see people like Eden Hazard or Joe Cole getting people off their seats.’

He has thrown his hat in the ring for multiple EFL jobs, telling talkSPORT in May that he found it ‘disheartening’ being rejected by several clubs.

That’s despite other players of his generation including Wayne Rooney, Steven  Gerrard, and Frank Lampard being given multiple opportunities.

Terry said: ‘I’ve got something to give. I’m not trying to be a Premier League manager overnight.

Despite his passion for coaching, he has branded the modern style of football ‘boring’ 

‘I’d done my groundwork with Dean Smith at Aston Villa. I’d done all my badges.

‘I’ve got everything. I’m ready to go. And to hear that was a little bit disheartening, to be honest.

‘I still have a dream, I’d love to go in at Chelsea [as first-team manager] one day.

‘Does that happen without me doing the other levels? No, it probably doesn’t.

‘So, realistically, it’s not going to happen for me.’
