John Terry Holds Up Imaginary Trophy At Spurs Fans After They Mock Him On Sidelines

Aston Villa's assistant manager John Terry held up an imaginary trophy at Spurs fans after they sang a song about Ledley King being better than him.

It was a night to forget for the home side, who fell to a 2-1 defeat against The Villans on Wednesday as goals from Ollie Watkins and Sergio Reguilon [OG] sealed all three points.

Players were even booed at both the half-time and full-time whistle for their under-par performance.

With the news that Harry Kane may be leaving the club at the end of the season, things are only going from bad to worse for the North London club.

And Terry's timely gesture just before half-time is a reminder of their situation in terms of silverware.

The 40-year-old former England international responded to the "Oh Ledley, he's only got one knee, he's better than John Terry" chant by lifting an imaginary trophy, according to ESPN's James Olley.

If you haven't heard the chant before, you can hear Tottenham fans sing it below:

To rub salt into the wounds, Terry fired another cheeky dig at Tottenham in a post on Instagram after the final whistle.

He wrote: "Great way to bounce back tonight. I enjoyed that one.

"Well done Ollie Watkins and a big congratulations to Carney Chukwuemeka and Jaden Philogene-Bidace. It was a superb team performance.

He continued, saying: "Different stadium, same old story. Three points."
