5. John Terry
Chelsea captain John Terry is surprisingly the fifth joint favourite candidate to take over as the next Chelsea manager in May, according to
Sky Bet. The former England international has won it all at club level, from the Premier League to the Champions League, and at 32, with his playing days nearing an end, perhaps his next big challenges lay in club management. Terry would be emulating Roberto Di Matteo were he to take the Chelsea job - a former player-turned-manager isn't always as successful in the dugout as he was on the pitch, however, just ask the Italian, who was albeit unfairly dismissed from his job after just 8 months. Terry has an outside chance at best of landing the job. He has no managerial experience and whilst he has led both Chelsea and England as captain, that's a different matter entirely. He has also been dogged by controversy throughout his career. He was stripped of the England captaincy for subjecting Anton Ferdinand to racist abuse and once had an affair with the now ex-girlfriend of former teammate Wayne Bridge. His poor public image makes him an unlikely candidate.
