John Terry Rips into Robbie Savage During Chelsea Press Conference

John Terry has had his fair share of criticism during Chelsea's struggles this season.

The Blues' skipper has been searching for form and spent some rare time on the substitutes' bench at Stamford Bridge recently, with Jose Mourinho's side winning just three of their 11 Premier League games thus far.

Rap battle: John Terry vs. @RobbieSavage8 😂 https://t.co/FvzsHiMzL9

While Terry doesn't enjoy taking criticism, he "takes it on the chin" with regards to ex-professionals who have earned his respect. Robbie Savage, it appears, is not one of those people.

During the Champions League pre-match press conference on Tuesday, the Guardian reports he said:

"

I’ve come under criticism, individually, from certain players and individuals, players I’ve looked up to and played alongside. I’ve taken that on the chin: Rio, Carra, Neville, the very best I’ve come up against in the game. I take that on the chin.

When others speak, maybe I don’t take it on the chin. When players have not had a career, played at a really bad level in their career ... Robbie Savage being one. He’s dug me out a couple of times. You take it as a footballer, as an individual.

I’ll take it from the Rios, Carraghers and Neville. All day long. From others? Nah.

"

In case you doubted it, here's a video clip of the incident from the press conference. It's fair to say the media in attendance enjoyed it!

We await a riposte from Savage. There's little chance he'll be able to resist.
