WATCH: Petr Cech pulls off stunning save during first Arsenal appearance, becomes instant hit

All hail

Conan Doherty

The missing piece in the jigsaw.

Arsenal fans are saluting their newest messiah after Petr Cech announced his arrival with a fantastic Petr Cech-esque save.

You don’t win titles without a top class ‘keeper and in the former Chelsea star, Arsenal finally have that.

The Gunners beat Everton 3-1 to win the Premier League Asia Trophy in Singapore and it might’ve been tighter if it wasn’t for Cech’s cool head, quick reactions and defiant fingertips on the last line of defence.

One game, one trophy.

Thibaut Courtois would be proud.

Naturally, Arsenal fans were loving it.

Just spare a thought for poor Santi Cazorla being forced to stand next to the new hero.
