Many Aston Villa fans are reacting to the latest news regarding assistant coach John Terry and the vacant AFC Bournemouth job.

The Villa man was supposedly being eyed up and interviewed for the role following the sacking of Jason Tindall and he has been linked to Championship roles in the past, most recently at relegation-battling Derby County.

However, according to @jamiecweir and tweeted out by @villareport, John Terry is no longer a candidate for the Bournemouth job.

At Aston Villa, he is gaining a lot of crucial experience – surviving last season and working with a mid-table side maybe even with Europa League ambitions this term are both valuable experiences for a young coach.

To take charge of a club at the battling near the top of the Championship table could be a huge risk for any manager as there is a lot of pressure to succeed, and even more so for the inexperienced Terry. Therefore, it is probably for the best that he is no longer in contention for the job.
