Courtois for me next year.
I would be sorry to see Cech go a true Chelsea legend of the future but we have a better player in Courtois.
Cech is still a great shot stopper but doesnt command his area anymore, I dont think our CB's trust him to come for crosses and is making us play very deep.
Against teams like Stoke and Sunderland it is costing us goals, how many have we conceded from scrabbles in the area in the past month.
I thought the decision to replace Carlo was madness all those years ago and look how that turned out.
When you have a squad as strong as ours if you can bring in a player who is 5% better than the one he replaces it can make the difference between 1st and 2nd.
By the sounds of it, Courtois is your best option.
It'd be interesting to know the Aberdeen fans thoughts on our GK situation but for me we should get Courtois back and make him our number 1.
I wanted to make this article last week but got lazy. Mojo <ok.
Or you wanted to copy from somewhere
If a deicision has to be made by next season (and most people seem to think so), then you have to go with the guy you think will be the better player over the next 3-4 years and that is Courtois hands down. Cech is still a great asset that we can maybe use to get a midfielder or striker or whatever the hell else we're looking for. Sorry Cech.
Remarkable how some people have such short term/selective memories.
Cech is magnificent at commanding and dominating his area. Goes without saying how many match winning saves he's made for us(even up until recently)
Suffered from a lapse in form momentarily.
Only area where I can fault Cech on...is his longstanding mediocre distribution and now tends to be flat-footed when shots coming in at his right(strange).
Still better than Courtois.
Ofcourse the numerous match winning saves will get overlooked though, as the limited mistakes outweigh them apparently.
As a Chelsea fan I love Petr Cech but I think its time to say goodbye to him after this season.
Chelseamf why you such a horse trucker.
OP just putting his views.
Cech is a legend but Courtois is our future.
I would have cech over neuer who is the most overated keeper in the world at present with the best team infront of him. A bit like valdes was at barcelona and then got found out.
If Courtois is better than cech(havent seen much of him) then sadly we will have to put the future first. Although I could rue that decision if made...grass is always greener etc.
Could anyone make that save in the FA cup final against andy carrolll...could anyone have 6 pens against him in the biggest game of his career and save 3 of them and guess the right way for all 6? I dont know about that.
Nickapolidis which goalie are you talking about who did that versus Andy Carroll?
Really don't envy the person who has to make a decision. Unfortunately I think Courtois will end up leaving. Mind you apparenlty Barcelona have signed Ter Stegen which is good.

Are you kidding? The FA cup final we most recently won?
You are right.
Op has had his say and now I've presented my opinion and facts...Juanopo.
Besides, my post was referring to Whitewall...
Juanpo it means Mata $ h it
Use Courtois as number one next season with Cech as number two. If he flops restore Cech.
