didierforever 7,349 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 JT's form has picked up though. He has to continue on from last year, whereas you're really looking for Cech to rediscover form of about 18 months ago.He might not have had nightmares about crosses but he's a perfectionist so I guarantee they were playing on his mind, which actually becomes an issue in and of itself because you start overthinking things. Oh and the tutoring thing wasn't i response to you. A few people have brought it up and I still have no idea what exactly it means in real terms. Again, when u say "rediscover" form, u make it sound like cech has been out of form or in a poor form for the last 18 months. I totally agreed with your point of cech declining and that is the issue here. Cech was not poor by any stretch of imagination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBlueGuy 1,552 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 The end of his Chelsea career has been confirmed bar a miracle for him(Courtois injured, starts fighting with Jose, wants to leave for some personal reasons, forgot how to be a GK overnight). HE WILL NEVER WIN HIS PLACE BACK, because if he does that means Courtois will leave and unless one of the above(last scenario is likely his best hope) happens, it will just not going to be.If I was his agent I would start calling Barcelona, PSG, Monaco or whoever now and maybe try to arrange a loan with an option to buy in Jan in case of PSG when their restriction are gone.

5354 204 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Lets show respect to Cech.He is still good, or infact 1 of the best.If a club comes for him with good money and he wants to leave, we should not stop it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DANILA 290 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Love tibo, but feel so bad for cech.. still one of the best in europe and a complete chelsea legend. I hope he gets sold to another club and then we'll buy him back just like with drogba. I can't bear to watch him rot on the bench The only place to be 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cholo 428 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Let him go. This topic will be in the media every matchday the whole season! Courtois is the future and Cech is the past! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robsblubot 3,595 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 There is no nice in football! The best play and Courtois is the better goalkeeper.The fact Cech is still a top gk is really irrelevant - only one plays and Jose picked the right one to start.As we all like chech and are grateful to him, we wish him all the best here or elsewhere. Still I just can't see him to ever start ahead of Courtois. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post! Dion 2,476 Posted August 24, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted August 24, 2014 Some of the posts in this thread are just so... dismissive of Cech. Heartbreaking to read. Discarded like a leper. I concur. I do think Courtois is already better than Cech as many other people here do (or at the very least about the same level while younger), but sometimes I get the feeling that a few people in this thread seem a bit too happy with benching and dismissing Petr for my liking. He's still a top goalkeeper and one who did so much for us, he deserves respectful treatment.

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 I remember when Cech arived in 2004, he had to battle Cudicini to take first spot. And Cech came here after superb euro 2004. Courtois despite doing well for Atletico, he has to earn spot like anyone else. Vs Leicester, he was fantastic, and if he keeps doing that, he will be ahead Cech well deserved, but I want those two to have competition at least untill january. Lets see if Courtois can play well regulary for us against top sides and in CL. However if Mou is keeping Cech just for second choice and wont even give him a fair chance, it makes no point whatsoever.If we sell Cech, sell him to Psg/Monaco, not PL rival or Real because it could somehow haunt us back. He is still top 5gk in world.In 2004, we bought Cech and Drogba and went on winning title, this year it could happen again but with Courtois and Costa. mannyfreshh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 It does look like on this picture, but in reality the difference should be barely noticeable, because according to the internetz Thibo is only 3 cm taller.maybe, but men grow until their early 20ies and Courtois is listed as 1,99 since he joined us when he was 19. It is probable that he gained two or more cms since then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea? 892 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 I think Cech would personally reject a move to a PL rival.he wouldn't and shouldn't. just like we didn't show blind loyalty to him, he shouldn't show it to us. He'll always have a home in Chelsea even if he plays in a red shirt(or sky blue) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll always have a home in Chelsea even if he plays in a red shirt(or sky blue)But look at what people are saying about Lampard after he went on a 6 month loan. if cech ever moved to, for example, united, everyone would go apeshit and he'd definitely lose his legend status.

Chelsea Legend 11 4,062 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Exact quote from Jose Mourinho: "The point here is not the quality because Petr is an amazing goalkeeper. What made me have this, this decision was the fact that the kid is 22, a kid that has only 2 yrs of contract. If he doesn't play for Chelsea he leaves Chelsea, if he leaves Chelsea in the near time he's a free agent and I made a decision for the team. The kid is answering in a fantastic way and Petr is the same." stroey and mannyfreshh 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post! BlueLyon 9,359 Posted August 24, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted August 24, 2014 If we are about to sell Cech, we have to extend Courtois contract first. Imagine we sell Cech and Curtois puts transfer request in 1/2 years. Courtois should pen another 5 year extension, keeping him here for next 7 years, before we even think about selling Petr (we shouldnt at least until januar) mannyfreshh, zolayes, Madmax and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
