Terry: I'm not the best defender, Cahill is

The centre-back has been left out of the starting XI by Jose Mourinho at times this season but his captain feels that his displays in big matches prove his worth

John Terry does not believe that he is the best English defender, insisting that Chelsea team-mate Gary Cahill is better than he is.
The duo were both named in the PFA Team of the Year on Sunday and many argue that Terry remains the strongest centre-back in England.
But the former England captain says that Cahill is the best defender available to national team coach Roy Hodgson, despite Jose Mourinho leaving him out of the Chelsea side at times this season.
"Gary is a big character. He was obviously disappointed to be left out of the Chelsea side a few months ago but he has come back and taken his chance again," Terry he told reporters.
"He has been different class and is England's best centre-back. For me, he has been brilliant all season long.
"The manager has taken him out and stuff but, for me, he has been playing at a very high level. In the big games, he has a lot of experience and he steps up to the plate."
