HATCHET MAN: Terry is not fooling anyone with all this 'winning the FA Cup makes it a good season' r

John Terry is the sort of player who always looks on the bright side, but when he says that Chelsea will have had a successful season if they win the FA Cup he is kidding himself. A club with their resources and ambition should not be happy with only emerging victorious in the third most important competition they enter and third place in the Premier League. It will not set them that far apart from Arsenal, who are considered to be going through a serious crisis as their season tails off again. Vital trophy: Chelsea skipper John Terry with the FA Cup When Chelsea won the FA Cup and Carling Cup two years ago they just about managed to convince themselves and everyone else that it was acceptable. But it was only just and manager Jose Mourinho didn't last much longer the following season. Managerial instability may be a serious problem at Stamford Bridge but Chelsea were supposed to be the team who were going to dominate English football for a generation and collecting the odd cup doesn't really do it.
