Arsenal's Petr Cech: Concedes one in victory
Cech made six saves and conceded one goal in Sunday's 2-1 victory over Burnley.
Analysis:
Cech was brilliant for most of the match, holding firm in the first half as the Clarets peppered his goal with shots from range and kept firm in the second half after being reduced to 10 men on 65 minutes when Granit Xhaka was sent off. However, he faced his greatest Achilles heel-a penalty-on 92 minutes, conceding to Andre Gray. In his Arsenal career, he's faced nine penalties and conceded on all nine including a whopping seven this year. After a FA Cup tie next weekend at Southampton-which will likely see David Ospina in net-Cech should return to action in 10 days against Watford at the Emirates.
