John Terry ensured he had the last laugh after James Maddison poked fun at the Chelsea legend during Tottenham’s title celebrations.
Maddison was in the thick of it as Tottenham rejoiced in ending their 17-year trophy drought with a 1-0 win over Manchester United in the Europa League final.
The 28-year-old was a spectator for Wednesday’s final in Bilbao having picked up a season-ending knee injury in the first leg of Tottenham’s semi-final win over Bodo/Glimt.
Despite playing no part, it didn’t stop Maddison from dressing up in full kit for the trophy lift.
Scenes of Maddison in full kit despite not playing a single second of the final evoked memories of when Terry did the same when Chelsea won the Champions League in 2012.
The Blues hero was suspended for the final but still donned a Chelsea kit and socks in the post-match celebrations.
In an Instagram story following the win, Maddison poked fun at the fact he was in full kit and tagged Terry in his caption.
Maddison wrote: “To kit. Full @johnterry.26 mode. Anything to say tonight John?”
It didn’t take long for Terry to bite back and he did so in ruthless fashion with a brutal reminder of how many trophies he won in his time at Stamford Bridge.
“I remember my first trophy, ah bless them,” Terry wrote on Instagram.
“Get the tequila out. Great season from you boys, you should all be proud! 16 (trophies) to go…
“After that performance I think you have a chance. You just have to live for 900 years.”

The 44-year-old wrote: “Good morning everyone, have a lovely day.”
During Terry’s 19 years at Stamford Bridge, he collected an impressive 17 trophies.
Of those 17, five came in the form of Premier League titles, while Terry won five FA Cups, three League Cups, two Community Shields, the Europa League and the Champions League.
Terry’s tally of 17 trophies is ten shy of the amount Tottenham have won in their entire history.
As for Maddison, he now has three trophies in his collection having won the FA Cup and Community Shield with Leicester City.
Maddison registered three goals and four assists in 11 Europa League appearancesGettyThe attacking midfielder was in fine form when speaking to the CBS panel, including United great Roy Keane.
Keane had taken a number of swipes at Maddison throughout the season, but it was the latter who had the last laugh.
“I wasn’t gonna do any interviews but I heard Roy Keane was in the studio tonight,” Maddison said.
Maddison was then asked by Micah Richards to show off his trademark darts celebration and the Tottenham ace was more than happy to oblige, adding: “Oh I will, Micah, with pleasure!”
But Keane cheekily got the last word in: “I always said he was a good player but he needs to be more consistent. And he played well tonight.”
