Currently, Arsenal are leading the rankings with a gap of 4 points, conceding only 3 goals after 9 rounds. Assuming they maintain this performance until the end of the season, the "Gunners" can end the season with only about 13 goals conceded - a figure that surpasses Chelsea's record of 15 goals conceded in 2003-2004.
In a video with John Terry, Cech shared: well, you know, Arsenal are doing very well, I have to say. The new season is starting, but you have to start somewhere. If they continue like that, they will have a chance, but it is a difficult job.
38 games, sometimes you need a little luck. I think they will hardly break Chelsea's record, but I will watch because they have started well."
Recalling his legendary season with Chelsea, Cech said: I am proud of that because conceding just 15 goals in a Premier League season is crazy.
You need a team together, and the important thing is to have someone connecting attack and defense. We have Makelele there, and everyone knows he's always there when the team needs him.
From a team that is good at attacking but too fragile, the Gunners are gradually showing more solidity and practicality in defense.
The former Czech goalkeeper also praised Mikel Arteta for helping Arsenal adapt and become more efficient: Its great to see a team that is proud of their solid defence.
Nowadays, everyone wants to play offensively and score, but if you don't concede, you only need one goal to win. That is what Arsenal have been doing so far.
