Such a leader. Been one of Wenger’s best recent signings he might have got a bit slower but still one of the best GK’s in the PL and great for the dressing room.
I read that in the dressing room after the Liverpool game Cech tore shreds off everyone. Proper captain.
“I think it was after about eight or nine weeks he came round. I was a bit worried at first because I hadn’t really spoken to anyone for longer than ten minutes.
“He walked through the door, sat on my sofa and said, ‘just sit back, don’t say anything, just listen’ and he spoke for about an hour and a half.
“I didn’t say anything, he just spoke and it was brilliant because when he left my partner said, ‘wow, the things we were a little bit worried about’. It just reassured us that everything we were going through was part of the process of recovery.
He is yet another player in a key position that will need replacing after this season.
Wenger is going to be extremely busy in the next transfer window.
He will need to get replacements for Cech, Kos, Sanchez, Ozil and Cazorla, and that’s before he starts strengthening the first team.
But I’m sure he knows this and it will all get sorted
