Carlo Ancelotti believes the off-field issues have 'not affected' John Terry's form and says Chelsea will stick by their skipper.
The meeting between Terry and Wayne Bridge on Saturday was massive news in the media, while the Blues slipped to a shock 4-2 defeat at home to Manchester City to dent their Premier League title hopes.
Many believe the former England captain has been at fault for several goals Chelsea have conceded in recent weeks, with the league leaders conceding six goals in their last three league games.
Those looking to use their free bet on Chelsea should note that Ancelotti refuses to portion the blame on Terry, insisting that he has no plans to drop the defender over the remaining ten games.
The Italian boss said: "We made mistakes (against Man City) but John Terry did not make any.
"This thing has not affected his form. There is no reason to take him out of the team.
"There is no way. He is our captain."
