The former Chelsea captain believes Steve Bruce's squad have what it takes to succeed in the Championship, but insists he is not taking anything for granted.

Terry also confirmed his desire to one day manager Chelsea, but his focus is firmly on his new challenge at Villa Park.

"Our vision is to get promoted back to the Premier League," said the 36-year-old.

"This club belongs in the Premier League. The stadium, facilities, the squad we've got, the manager - everything's in place.

"But we still need to perform on the pitch."
