John Terry's Legacy || El legado de John Terry

Era el 28 de octubre de 1998 un joven muchacho con muchas ilusiones, sueños y deseos como otros muchos, estaba a punto de cumplir su sueño y de marcar así un verdadero legado para otros; quizás muchos de los jóvenes de hoy tienen como inspiración a aquel muchacho.

Intento imaginar lo que podía estar pasando por la mente de aquel chico, quizás la noche anterior se le había dicho que iba a hacer su debut para el club de sus amores. ¡Qué nervios! Tal vez no logró conciliar el sueño y mayor aún no sabía todavía lo que iba a lograr o quizás ni siquiera le había pasado por su mente. Claro tenía 17 años.

El joven John quien nació en un pequeño barrio de menos de 50,000 personas, había estado entrenando toda su joven vida para este momento y aunque había experimentado a algunas otras posiciones dentro del campo de juego, ya se podía vislumbrar un futuro prometedor para el muchacho.

On October 28, 1998, a young man with many hopes, dreams and desires, like many others, was about to fulfill his dream and thus make a true legacy for others; perhaps many of today's young people are inspired by that boy.

I try to imagine what could be going through that boy's mind, maybe the night before he had been told that he was going to make his debut for the club of his loves. What nerves! Maybe he didn't manage to fall asleep and even bigger he didn't know yet what he was going to achieve or maybe it hadn't even crossed his mind. Of course, he was 17 years old.

Young John, who was born in a small neighborhood of less than 50,000 people, had been training all his young life for this moment and even though he had experienced some other positions within the field, a promising future could already be glimpsed for the boy.

Lo que estaba sucediendo era historia que se escribirían con letra de oro, marcaría un antes y un después para el chico y para su club. Nada sería igual después de esto, nada. Posiblemente nadie lo vio venir solo llegó y sucedió.

Un día como hoy hace 22 años John Terry haría su debut para el Chelsea, lo haría jugando unos minutos como suplente, pero con el tiempo lograría ganarse un lugar en el equipo titular, debido a su gran calidad y liderazgo, liderazgo natural que hoy en día Chelsea está necesitando. Un líder que junto a su gran calidad sepa guiar a su equipo hacia la victoria.

Hablar de la historia de John Terry es hablar de la historia del Chelsea, un legado indivisible que se tiene que analizar en conjunto. Juntos lograron llegar a lo más alto del deporte consiguiendo títulos importantes, nominaciones tanto individuales como grupales.

What was happening was history that would be written in gold letters, marking a before and after for the boy and his club. Nothing would be the same after this, nothing. Possibly no one saw it coming, it just came and went.

On a day like today 22 years ago John Terry would make his debut for Chelsea, he would do it playing a few minutes as a substitute, but with time he would manage to earn a place in the starting team, due to his great quality and leadership, natural leadership that today Chelsea is needing. A leader who, together with his great quality, knows how to lead his team to victory.

To talk about John Terry's history is to talk about Chelsea's history, an indivisible legacy that has to be analyzed together. Together they managed to reach the top of the sport by winning important titles, both individual and group nominations.

Un legado que no estuvo exento de polémicas, con episodios escandalosos de traiciones, momentos extra canchas en los que se vio envuelto el capitán del Chelsea, algunos que le costaron el gafete de capitán. Otros momentos dolorosos en los que las condiciones del campo afectaron la correcta ejecución de un tiro penal o incluso momentos en los que las mismas emociones del juego le costaron la expulsión.

John Terry lo dio todo por su equipo, dio todo lo que tenía a sus entrenadores, a sus compañeros de juegos y a su afición que hoy le recuerda con nostalgia y quizás con un poco de tristeza. Por ejemplo a mí me hubiese gustado que su retiro lo hubiese hecho vestido de Blue.

El gran Terry jugó 771 juegos con la camisa del Chelsea, no tengo que decir que muchos de ellos como el primer capitán, anotó 66 goles y logró asistir en 29 ocasiones. Entre los trofeos que consiguió fueron 5 Premier League, 5 FA Cup, 3 copas de la liga, una Champions League entre otros.

A legacy that was not exempt from controversy, with scandalous episodes of betrayals, extra-court moments in which the Chelsea captain was involved, some of which cost him his captain's badge. Other painful moments in which the conditions of the field affected the correct execution of a penalty kick or even moments in which the very emotions of the game cost him his expulsion.

John Terry gave his all for his team, he gave everything he had to his coaches, his playmates and his fans who today remember him with nostalgia and perhaps a little sadness. For example, I would have liked his retirement to have made him wear Blue.

The great Terry played 771 games with the Chelsea shirt, I don't have to say that many of them as the first captain, he scored 66 goals and managed to assist on 29 occasions. Among the trophies he won were 5 Premier League, 5 FA Cup, 3 League Cups, one Champions League among others.

Más allá de los títulos lo que recuerdo de Terry es su entrega total en cada juego. Una vez Blue siempre Blue.

Beyond the titles, what I remember about Terry is his total commitment to each game. Once Blue always Blue.

It was a bit strange letting him go to retire at another club. I would have thought it was worthwhile to let him stay more of a figure head or a sounding board to help the managers.

I just hope he comes back as a coach, I have no doubt he will be successful.
