Players with too much power at their respective clubs, with Man United & Chelsea stars and Lionel Messi

3) John Terry (Chelsea)

Andre Villas Boas blamed his sacking as Chelsea boss on a group of senior players, most likely led by captain John Terry. The club captain is an important figure at the club, but has arguably taken advantage of his influence. With Ashley Cole and Frank Lampard now gone, Terry’s importance as a leader has intensified, and perhaps he’s put some previous immature rumours – such as selling illegal tours of the training ground through his father – behind him.
