Arsenal's Petr Cech: Concedes two in victory

Cech made four saves and conceded twice in Saturday's 3-2 victory over Swansea.

Analysis:

With Arsenal looking extremely comfortable and up 2-0, Granit Xhaka gave the ball right to Gylfi Sigurdsson, who gave Cech no chance to make a play. In the second half, Modou Barrow's pace gave the Gunners fits, picking out Borja Baston and then drawing a red card on Xhaka to make things quite a bit perilous for Arsenal; however, Cech held strong at the death to secure the points and move Arsenal into second place. They now face a very winnable stretch with home matches against Ludogorets, Middlesbrough and Reading in three different competitions, all at home, that will likely see David Ospina playing in the cup matches.
