What are the odds on Chelsea losing their first-choice back-four all at the same time before the end of the season?
Now my mates at 188Bet would probably have given me 1,000/1 at the beginning of the season.
I reckon I would have punted a tenner on it.
So what should my reaction be now?
Whih just a handful of league games to go, should I be wishing John Terry to be crocked?
Having already lost Jose Bosingwa and Ashley Cole for the rest of this term, Richardo Carvalho is now out for a month.
An ankle ligament injury (the offcial website unhelpfully does not say which ankle - rookie error) means the Portugal centre-back is the third of Chelsea’s establish back-four to be absent at the same time.
Should JT fall foul to a foul tomorrow against Aston Villa, and miss the next match against Manchester United, then I would be quids in but the team would be in dire straits.
OKay, I haven’t actullay had that bet, but I’m sure 188Bet would have looked at me with some mild amusement at the prospect while taking my hard-earned cash at the same time.
Speaking od bets, there is still a chance to win tickets for tomorrow’s must-win clash at Stamford Bridge.
