Petr Cech

I've always viewed Petr as a Lampard of goalkeepers. Meaning they probably weren't the most talented or technically gifted, but their hard work, grit, determination and mainly intelligence got them to the very top. Him and JT almost died playing for Chelsea, there isn't a single greater thing a player can do for the club... Not to mention the heroics of Munich among others. :worship2: He is forever etched in the same pinnacle legendary status together with Lampard, JT and Drogba... they were the only constant driving forces from beginning to the end of our most successful era ever. Managers came and went, teammates came and went, yet we still maintained that winning spirit for a decade no matter what, all thanks to them.

Club legend Cech's potential new role

Chelsea’s decision to prepare a key role for club legend Petr Cech has won the approval of the club’s players.

As revealed by Telegraph Sport last week, Chelsea expect their former goalkeeper Cech to return to the club to take on elements of the job left behind by ex-technical director Michael Emenalo.

One duty Emenalo performed well was to provide a link between the players, head coach and the club’s board.

Members of Chelsea’s squad have felt the loss of Emenalo, as head coach Maurizio Sarri has been unable to provide answers over contracts or transfer decisions.

Players hope that the return of Cech, who has announced his playing retirement with Arsenal at the end of the season, will give them a point of contact above the head coach.

Sarri has consistently stated that decisions over contracts and transfers are not taken by him, which has led to some frustration among players keen to discuss their futures.

It was also noted during a bad run of results, when Sarri was on the brink of being sacked, that there were no messages coming from the board to the players.

Emenalo used to either reassure players that the coach would be staying or dish out rollickings on the orders of owner Roman Abramovich when it was clear the coach’s words were not being listened to.

With Abramovich unable to work in the UK because of his visa problems, the Chelsea owner is no longer a regular visitor to the club’s Cobham training ground.

But Cech would be able to fill that void by providing a voice from the board to the players and passing messages back.

Cech was among a group of former players who used to have a direct route into Abramovich and the Russian is known to value his opinion and playing experience.

The return of Cech will also please Chelsea supporters at a time when there has been a disconnect between the club and the fans.

Some fans have chanted against Sarri and his style of football while others have stayed away from Stamford Bridge in recent weeks.

There has also been annoyance over the perceived lack of football experience on the Chelsea board, but Cech would be seen as a positive addition.

European clubs such as Bayern Munich and Ajax have a record of appointing their legendary former players into positions of power to keep a connection with successful periods in their history.

Cech won four Premier League titles, the Champions League, the Europa League, four FA Cups and three League Cups during 11 incredible years at Chelsea.
