Frank Lampard Has Something To Say About Cech's Move To Arsenal

Chelsea legend Frank Lampard thinks Arsenal can launch a serious title challenge having recruited his former team-mate Petr Cech.

Speaking to the BBC following his transfer to New York City, Lampard revealed Arsenal’s capture of the 33-year-old goalkeeper was ‘a big deal’ for Arsene Wenger’s side.

The Czech Republic stopper has won the Premier League’s Golden Glove award three times as well as keeping 220 clean sheets for Chelsea, a club record.

‘I think Arsenal signing Petr Cech is a big deal,’ Lampard said.

I think it’s been a position that a lot of people at Arsenal, fans and friends have continuously bemoaned the fact that the keeper situation hasn’t been sorted out for quite a few years.
‘So he will be huge for them, he might push Arsenal into the running. I think Arsenal weren’t a million miles away last year. Year in year out they are there or thereabouts and you have to think they will put a run together.’

Cech is one of the most celebrated goalkeepers in Premier League history, winning the competition four times in his 11 seasons with Chelsea.
