Petr Cech

[TheChelseaDane 48]

So, Cech just got awarded golden ball in his home country, Czech Republic. Big congrats to the 'old' man!

Cech is such a huge Legend. He knows he is not getting any more playing time. Maybe even knew it before the season started, but still was willing to stay for a fight against all odds because he didn't want to leave with the first sign (even if it's a definite one) of trouble.

Petr Cech claims he may quit Chelsea if he doesn't reclaim spot from Thibaut Courtois

@ChelsTransfer: Cech: "I've not spoken to anyone, but I think they know me well enough at #CFC to know the situation is definitely not the way I'd imagine"

@ChelsTransfer: Cech: "With the Euros [in 2016] and the national team in mind, there is no time for me to sit on the bench and not to play" #CFC

@ChelsTransfer: Cech: "If the situation will not start to improve for me, then I will want to solve it." #CFC (Mail)

Obviously this was expected

It was always going to happen next summer at the very latest. We should make the most of having two WC keepers while we can.

Hopefully he will hold until the summer and get a great send off in May, hopefully during title celebrations.

He is absolutely right. Another legend is leaving.

Unless we loan out Thibaut again :lol:

Yeah, the fact that he bothered to stay and put up a challenge for the top spot makes me respect him much more. His situation is also different from others like Mata and Lukaku since rotation is not very feasible for a keeper. Perhaps Tibo came around too early and if Cech was nearing the end of his career instead, say at about 37 years old, then he might stay all the way and accept a lesser role. Currently he still has plenty to offer at the top level and I think for his own sake he should get the top spot somewhere else (hopefully out of the PL) and win more stuff elsewhere.

Anyways if Cech is happy, then I am happy.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

Which top club need him most?

[nyikolajevics 2,573]

Which top club need him most?

Monaco, Roma, Inter maybe.

Sadly Monaco and Inter are not that 'top' at the moment, would be great if he could go to Roma. They have a good squad.

Don't think anyone can fault him for that. Best of luck to him (and hopefully he doesn't pull a Lampard on us)

Hope Petr Will go abroad...

He's still a top 5 gk in the world and no club can have 2 top 5 gk's in their squad since its hard to rotate with them.

It was only a matter of time when the one that ended up on the bench wants to leave .

A top player like Petr or TC should always be in a club starting 11 because thats how good they are, so like you said all the best to him and i hope he can join another elite club outside england

Inter dont need Cech.

If he goes abroad, I dont think any of the big 3 in Spain would sign him as their number1.

In italy, he would have a lot of options IMO.

I could see Real going for him. Cech>>>Navas>>> Casillas

I dont think so. Real is lining up and waiting for De Gea and their short term target being Lloris... DOnt think they would want Cech due to his age.

They aren't getting DDG. Lloris possibly, but I don't think he's good enough for a top club
