3) Age Doesn’t Matter
A lot of people have said £10.9m is a lot of money for a 33-year-old, and if Cech was an outfielder, you would have to agree with that assessment.
However, he’s not. He’s a goalkeeper, and these days, ‘keepers can go until they are 40.
Cech is only 33. Arsenal signed Jens Lehmann for the first time at 33 and look what he won. Manchester United signed Edwin Van Der Saar at 35 and look how successful he was.
The Gunners could easily get four years out of the Czech international and in this day an age, it’s likely that they could get even more years out of the shot-stopper.
