He no longer wastes time trying to find the perfect pass. If he can't pass it out properly with 2 touches or less he just goes for the the long ball.
Can't see Leno getting much game time in the league if Cech carries on playing like this.
Watching Cech's performances it really makes you wonder how bad the GK training was under Wenger.
Cech already looks better than last year.
I don't think it's the sole reason but there were certainly rumours mainly through his father that behind the scenes the training wasn't great.Isn’t that why Woj left? Apparently he fell out massively with Gerry Peyton but the club backed Peyton
"I learnt more in four months under Spalletti than in 10 years in England. He puts a lot of importance on details and wants the goalkeeper to be able to play the ball with his feet."
t “I think in general, the coaches in Italy are much more tactical, that’s just how the league works,” says Szczęsny. “Whether it was [Luciano] Spalletti at Roma or Max Allegri here, the preparation for the game is different to what I was used to in England. You work on the shape of the team for a particular match all week. At Arsenal you’d just prepare physically for it but here you watch film analysing a specific opponent before the game and afterwards we’ll watch again to see what worked and what didn’t.
“I enjoyed working with some great coaches at Arsenal, Roma and here, but the goalkeeping school in Italy is very different, it’s very technical and pays more attention to the details. It’s really made a difference for me because I started playing at a very young age with Arsenal and as you play you gain experience and that’s how you grow. But, honestly, I couldn’t say from a technical standpoint that I improved in any way from when I became first-choice at Arsenal until the day I left for Roma.
“However, in the two-and-a-half years since I came to Italy, I’ve improved massively which is thanks to the coaches and the way they work. It’s not about improving when you play, it’s every day in training you have to work on every aspect of your game and that’s something I’ve really enjoyed.”
Surprising to hear an experienced head like Cech make that admission in public“It comes from the preparation, the everyday work and from the manager’s way of playing the game, as well,” Cech said. “We work very hard every day to give ourselves the chance to compete with everybody and hopefully it will be working even better than it has been for the last four games.
“He is very demanding and this is how you improve. I think the place has become much more demanding in every way so this is great to see because this is what initially drives everybody forward and gives you the kind of kick that: ‘I’m not doing enough to start the game’ or ‘I’m not doing enough to keep my spot in the game,’ because the manager asked for precision and hard work every day. This is how it should be. We have very healthy competition and we are actually taking the benefit of it.”
Rings true. Seems like players could just get by without giving it that bit extra. And that's what a manager is there to do extract 100% from his players.Surprising to hear an experienced head like Cech make that admission in public
Just have to look at the improvement made under Emery. He's rolled back the years.
No matter how badly he played, there was no chance for Gnarby, Joel Campbell, Adobe, Akpom. They will never play because Wenger field players by seniority and never by the hardwork they put during training.
No wonder we were sh*t.
We bought an Acrobat Reader instead of a football player.
To be rather blunt - what style are we talking about over the last 3 years?
We lost everything identity wise. It is time to find one again.
