Like, they call it the Shed End, you know?“Look at our ground, look at our stadium.

Have you seen inside it? It looks like a toy Spurs stadium.“When you watch it on TV now, it looks like Spurs, but just not as big. It’s like a toy version of it. Everyone wants to copy our stadium!”The talkSPORT host then continued to state his case for Spurs being a bigger name than Chelsea.He continued: “And look, we haven’t had the investment that Chelsea have had – they went out and they spent big and they did unbelievable. “But, come on, mate. Spurs are bigger for me. They are.”John Terry shuts down O’Hara’s claimO’Hara’s fighting talk came just after his claim that Tottenham are ‘globally a bigger club’ than Chelsea caused a stir in the talkSPORT studios.GettyO’Hara also laid into Chelsea’s 120-year home in Stamford Bridge[/caption]The Englishman made 56 appearances for Spurs between 2005 and 2011GettyThe presenter said: “What are Chelsea? Do you know what I mean? They’re big because of Roman Abramovich, aren’t they?“Fair play to them, they spent loads of money, they bought the league a couple of times, but their big game is Tottenham. We don’t even care about that.”O’Hara then doubled down on his claim, stating: “Spurs globally are bigger than Chelsea, they are. We’ve got a rich history.His remarks did not sit well with Chelsea icon Terry, who responded by sending a voicenote in to Friday’s talkSPORT Breakfast.The former England skipper hit back by replying: “What on earth is he on about this morning, O’Hara?“Even using those two words together, Spurs and globally, should never be in the same sentence ever, ever again.John Terry won five Premier League five titles with ChelseaGetty“Mate, they’re still doing their pre-season tours around North London. Absolutely ridiculous.“Also, I’ve been invited to the game by Tottenham at the weekend. So it’s a 5.30 kick-off.“They’ve asked me to get there at 5.29 and they said they’ll take me round the trophy cabinet and they’ll have me in my seat by kick-off. That’s how miles off it they are, mate.”
