John Terry in a West Ham shirt is just gonna look wrong!
PHOTO: We are half-used to seeing former Hammer Frank Lampard in a West Ham shirt (see this Ian Hodgson pic from 1998) but John Terry?
That shirt? Well yes it suits you sir, but looks a little strange ….!
There are certain things you simply don’t expect to see in football like John Terry in a West Ham shirt or … and this one is for older fans …. Alfredo Di Stefano in Barcelona’s red and blue rather than the all-white of Real Madrid.
The news this week that Terry, who trained with the Hammers until he left for Chelsea at 14, has agreed to play for West Ham in a testimonial match for their academy director Tony Carr sets the imagination racing.
Somehow, try as hard as you like you just cannot imagine Mr Chelsea himself in a West Ham shirt.
