Thibaut Courtois

We'll probably loan Cech out to relegation teams until he gets his record.

Well I would.

[Mouri_Matic 560]

We are gonna sell one the best GK in the world just for Cech to break the record...please tell me otherwise

I keep changing my mind about the Cech/Courtois situation every other week so I've realized that since I'm changing my take on the situation so often then I should be okay with whatever Jose decides at the end of the season.

Even if Mark becomes our no1?

As long as we don't give Hilario yet another extension and make him no1...

An indication Cech will stay?

i really hope not. nothing against cech by courtois is easily better. but it does seem that way. frustrating, i 100% think lukaku and courtois should be chelsea first XIplayers

best solution.

In what way has Courtois been the better GK the last 2 seasons? Cech in 2012 was easily his best ever season.

Even last season is somewhat debatable. Cech had the best save ratio in Europe last season.

new and younger is always better and "more exciting" haven't you heard.

The next big thing comes onto the scene and suddenly people are eager to toss the besk GK in our history to the side. He's only 31 for crying out loud and is still a Top 3 GK in the World.

Further proof loyalty simply doesn't exist in football or sports in general.

I have said it before but Courtois defensive record is mighily overrated as he's benefitting from having arguably the most resilient defensive unit protecting him which greatly limits his the amount of saves per game he has to make. the pressure he faced against valencia which led to the performance people are creaming themselves over is a rarity as he normally never as much to do at all unlike cech who has shown remarkable consistency and reliability over the years.

I'm not convinced I can rely on Courtois to consistently bail us out when Luiz has his trademark brainfarts, cahill stands off opposing players, giving them room to strike on goal, when Mikel is his slow to track his man, when ramires loses possession in a dangerous area and so on.

Just like Cech today then and we are known to be one of the best defensive team in the last 10 years so...

Kept a clean sheet today against Barcelona, with one very good save at the end according to article. It stayed 0-0.

barely had anything to do all match. probably just one odd moment with the messi shot.

Doesn't bode well for Courtois does it?

Can't say im even remotely surprised.

Don't get me wrong, Petr will go down as a Chelsea great (and rightly so) however the club just cannot let Courtios go next year. Make him #1 or he WILL leave.

As per usual then. story of his time at AM.

to be honest, i have watched him only against the 2 big teams (barca and RM), and he has been phenomenol. i remember a couple of seasons ago when barca scored 5 against ATM, he was still fabulous in that match. another mind-blowing performance that he put in was last season's copa del ray final where i have to say that he should have been MOTM.

i dont know how his whole time in ATM has been, but i can say this, it was not as easy as it has been for him this season. ATM have been brilliant defensively this season. i watched the 2 super-copa, the match against RM and today's match, in all he has conceded 1 goal in those 4 matches and he has had to barely do anything.

on the other hand, i was watching the highlights of malaga vs ATM, and valencia vs ATM, and i have to say that some of the saves from thibaut were amazing.
