José Mourinho: Only my fearsome Chelsea squad can lose a goalkeeper and not panic:
José Mourinho has warned his Premier League rivals that his fearsome Chelsea squad will withstand anything thrown at it — including a goalkeeper crisis
http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/jose-mourinho-only-fearsome-chelsea-4417908

"Only we can lose a keeper and not panic. We lost a keeper and the panic was just what the kid has [suffered]."

"But as for the football panic and talk of ‘oh my god what is going to happen?’ — the other one just come comes and no one in the seats feels any fear because we know the big guy is there for us too."

"Petr is so solid, so confident, so under control so we are fine. I am happy with everything. In this moment our team are able to adapt to everything."

Damn it feels good to have Courtois and Cech. Having the #1 and #2 Gk in the league. :bow:

I know it is going to end, i hope he goes to Roma and i already really like Roma anyway.

by Shed Mon Oct 13, 2014 12:31 am

It'll be a big side, wherever he goes - he's too good not to.

Be interesting to see which.

Yeah.

i really feel for Cech he is too good to be on the bench. He is undoubtedly one of the best in the world, it would be selfish of any Chelsea fan to ask him to be happy as a backup.

I am sure there will be idiots who will get mad at Petr for wanting to leave eventually. Mad

by Shed Mon Oct 13, 2014 12:39 am

As much as we'd love him to stay, both because he's a legend and because he's an unbelievable back-up to have on the bench (probably the best in the world), I don't think any sane, reasonable Chelsea fan would begrudge him a move as soon as one becomes available. As you said, far too good to be riding the bench every week.

by Kick Mon Oct 13, 2014 12:41 am

We've all known it will happen eventually and we've been talking about it for a few seasons.

Define "sane"? Laughing

Unfortunately there are idiots on the internet who are mad at Lampard for being a professional.

I guess that is good definition.

BTW do we agree Roma is a good destination for him?

Likable club
great upcoming team
great manager
Blue legend Cole already there.

by Shed Mon Oct 13, 2014 1:01 am

Yes, if I had to handpick a team, they'd probably it.

Though the Madrid teams - especially Atlético - wouldn't be too shabby either hmm

by Kick Mon Oct 13, 2014 1:05 am

Yeah, one of those three would be best.

by Blue Mon Oct 13, 2014 1:07 am

I think in January Carlo could push for Cech tbh. hmm

by Shed Mon Oct 13, 2014 1:08 am

Said so myself a few days ago as well.

by Kick Mon Oct 13, 2014 1:09 am

Yes I think they are most likely if Carlo wants a new GK.

Would we allow it though because they are potentially a CL opponent? hmm

Its not like we will sell him for the be$t offer, not like we sold Sturridge to liverpool or Mata to United. Laughing

by Kick Mon Oct 13, 2014 1:13 am

I doubt we'll sell him to another EPL team.

Buy one Cech, get a Ramires free.

One in a lifetime opportunity for Carlo, that :coffee:

Say City or Arsenal offered by far the best offer, i think he is playing for City or Arsenal tbh.

by Kick Mon Oct 13, 2014 1:16 am

Cech is different to Mata or Lukaku, neither are legends like Cech.

Also, why would he join another English team when he can win other things outside England?

Petr Cech advises Chelsea teammate Thibaut Courtois after head injury against Arsenal, Belgian reveals:
Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has revealed that Petr Cech has been giving him tips on how to survive in the dangerous world of Premier League goalkeepers
http://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/405901/Petr-Cech-Chelsea-Thibaut-Courtois-head-injury-Arsenal

“Petr sent me a message after the Arsenal game and later he told me that in the Premier League maybe some strikers really go against the keepers.”

“He said maybe sometimes it is better to protect your head to go down quicker and with your back or your shoulder protecting your head.”

“That was a tip he gave me and it’s good because, when you come into a new league sometimes things are different than in Spain so it’s good to know that.”

Thibaut Courtois wouldn't blame Petr Cech for seeking move away from Chelsea:
Thibaut Courtois insists he is not surprised fellow Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech is considering an exit from Stamford Bridge in January
http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11668/9563351/transfer-news-thibaut-courtois-not-surprised-petr-cech-may-quit-chelsea

“As a goalkeeper you want to play. If I was in that situation where I didn’t play a lot, then I would leave too.”

“I think Petr is still a goalkeeper with a lot of quality and one of the best there is.”

Čech or Courtois?

What course of action should the club take regarding our goalkeeper situation next season?
