Arsenal midfielder Tomas Rosicky admits that he has spoken to fellow countryman Petr Cech about a possible move to the Emirates. However, the midfielder is well aware that the goalkeeper will be tempted by several clubs. Rosicky and Cech have been team-mates in the Czech Republic national team for no less than 13 years.
Cech has one year remaining on his contract with Chelsea but he is looking for a new club after being second choice behind Thibaut Courtois at the Blues. Reports suggest that he has turned down an offer from Paris Saint-Germain because he would like to remain in the Premier League.
“Obviously I would be lying if I didn't tell you that I had been speaking to him because we have known each other for a very long time,” Rosicky told Sky Sports. “Petr wants a change of scenery, let's say, so I don't think he will have a lack of clubs interested in him. We will see how it ends but in this case I will not interfere at all from both sides. It's his decision or Arsenal's decision if they want to go in that way. I don't know if Arsenal really want him or not. That's not the right question for me but he's a very good goalkeeper. He's a proven goalkeeper.”
Arsenal are 5.50 to win the Premier League title next season.

This may work very very well. Petr Cech is great goalkeeper who knows how to win trophies, he is experienced and that is type of players which Arsen Wenger should looking for. Arsenal have great team and with Petr Cech they can be very serious team and they could even win the title because we all know that without good...

I think that this move will be great for both end. Arsenal have problems with goalkeeper during last few seasons and I think that with Petr they will resolve all problems on their goal. On the other side Petr is too good goalkeeper to be on bench and I think if they stay at Chelsea he will be on the bench. So I think that...

So I think that he should go to Arsenal, that is better option for him. option for him.

Arsenal desperately need quality keeper. That is the first thing that Wenger needs to do if he wants to win the title. Petr Cech is great goalkeeper, one of the five best in the world. But, I am not sure about this transfer. Mourinho will not let Cech to be sold in big opponent club in the same league. That is the biggest...

I agree with Shumar4life about situation in Chelsea.Petr is still fantastic goalkeeper,he is only unlucky to have Courtois as a opponent for the place in the first lineup. Any team that signs Czech will solve the position of goalkeeper for at least two or three years.

Czech is surely a good goalkeepers still, and his bad luck was Tibo's coming to Chelsea. He will be a perfect solution for Arsenal because this team is searching for goalkeeper for several years. I believe that after Siman they didn't get quality goalkeeper. He will bring a new quality for Arsena,l I am sure.

I think Tomas Rosicky could influence on the Peter Cech's decision but primary for the goalkeeper will be to join the team when he can play regularly. Probably he will be number 1 if he joins Arsenal so I think this transfer is very possible. Of course there are other teams who will be interested in him too but I don't...

Petr Cech is top 5 goalkeepers in the world. He had great decade as a first Chelsea goalkeeper, winning everything that can be won with a club. Now is time for change. Jose Mourinho said that if it was his decision, Cech would never leave Blues. But Petr doesn't want to be replacement. Now, there are rumors that he will...
Petr Cech is top 5 goalkeepers in the world. He had great decade as a first Chelsea goalkeeper, winning everything that can be won with a club. Now is time for change. Jose Mourinho said that if it was his decision, Cech would never leave Blues. But Petr doesn't want to be replacement. Now, there are rumors that he will join rival club, Arsenal. I don't belive it that stories. Petr will probably join PSG or come club like that. Gunners will have to search for goalkeeper at some other place then London.

It would be great deal for the Gunners.Czech is still one of the best goalkeepers in the world and they would not have to spend a lot of money on him.It will also be good for Petr to go to the Emirates stadium,same city,he is living in London for almost 10 years.It is only doubtfull will he betray Chelsea and go to the...

As I once said, Peter Cech is great goalkeeper and it was very "surprising" for me how he keep playing and doing that great after that injury that he had. But I really don't see why Arsenal need one more goalkeeper when they have great two goalkeepers. They have young Wojciech Szczesny and also David Ospina. If they want...

But I really don't see why Arsenal need one more goalkeeper when they have great two goalkeepers. They have young Wojciech Szczesny and also David Ospina. If they want to sell one of this two keepers than it's logical to me, but if they keep them and also sigh Cech I really don't see a point in that.
