Terry said Savage, former Leicester City midfielder and Strictly Come Dancing contestant, "played at a really bad level", and therefore discounted his opinion.
Savage hit back with a reasoned, well thought out article, in which he said everyone, regardless of their playing ability, was entitled to an opinion.

"He has maximised everything out of his career and his life and, ultimately, that comes down to the upbringing we all had at United under Nobby Stiles, Sir Alex Ferguson and Eric Harrison."
