Goals from Raheem Sterling and Kai Havertz secured a 2-0 win, overturning a 1-0 first-leg defeat in Germany.
Chelsea were dominant against a surprisingly lifeless Dortmund, which cost former Aston Villa striker Agbonlahor dearly.
“I thought from the first whistle Chelsea were outstanding, pressing, aggressive,” he said.
“[Marc] Cucurella had his best game, [Ben] Chilwell going forward, Sterling making runs in behind.
“I want to see them next game, they’ve got Leicester away, let’s see if they can do it against a Premier League side because Dortmund weren’t great.
“I was expecting more, they cost me a bottle of Tignanello, I had a bet with JT. Have you got a bottle at home you can loan me Ally [McCoist]? I had Dortmund to go through.

“Graham Potter made the right changes as well, [Joao] Felix looked a bit tired, he bought [Conor] Gallagher on.
“Those are the kind of changes you want to see from a manager, not just sitting there and saying ‘we’re winning 2-0’ he slowed the game down.”
Potter's good work will be costly for Agbonlahor, with a bottle of Tiganello wine worth over £100.
Terry made sure to make the bet public too, posting a thanks to his former England and Aston Villa teammate on Instagram.
