Disappointed Cech got injured though, he was playing well this season like he was fighting for it.

He would've been in the Hitler Youth. He'll be fine.

Not only the save itself but also his parrying technique was top notch.

Many keepers would have parried the ball back into the danger zone.

Also displayed very good distribution with both feet.

Yeah, being somewhat overlooked by the out field players but he's made some cracking match winning saves these last few games.

Distribution from the back is much smoother as well.

Cech had a last hoorah and did play well between the sticks but Leno is here to replace him simple as that, Cech looks like an accident waiting to happen ball to feet.

Nice to have both though, Cech is still a great shot stopper.

Needs to improve how he deals with crosses. Hopefully it’s something being worked on in training but the rumours why he didn’t start the season as first choice are now being shown as true.

Needs to shape up a bit, not as good as I thought, early days so I hope he improves, he needs to.

He did a couple bad but more good tbf and his integration in our playing from the back is vital.

Made about 4 good saves so one mistake isn't going to sway me back to Cech.

Definitely want him to stay at no. 1 but that indecisive dealing with balls into the box is very worrying. It’s not the first game either. Was lucky not to be punished v Leicester.

Hopefully with time he improves as lots of GK new to the Prem have the same issue at first
