Former Chelsea captain, John Terry, has named the four strikers that he found it difficult playing against during his career.

They are Thierry Henry, Wayne Rooney, Sergio Aguero and Harry Kane.

But according to him, Henry was the one he “feared the most”.

Terry revealed this after he was voted into the Premier League Hall of Fame on Monday, alongside Manchester United legend Andy Cole.

He said: “Thierry Henry was the best I came up against, the one I feared the most.Next has to be Wayne Rooney. He was a top, top player and what he achieved was incredible.”

“I don’t know if it gets overlooked a little bit just how good Wayne was when he first broke into the England team.I remember playing against him in the Premier League and having him as a teammate in the England sessions. He was phenomenal.”

“I’d also say Sergio Aguero or Harry Kane were difficult to come up against.”
