EPL: Wenger speaks on Petr Cech’s 200th clean sheet

Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger, has hailed the club goalkeeper, Petr Cech for becoming the first English Premier League (EPL) shot stopper to reach a remarkable 200th clean sheet in the 3-0 win against Watford on Sunday.

Cech saved a second-half Troy Deeney penalty, his first since joining Arsenal in 2015 to secure a landmark 200th EPL clean sheet.

Goals from Shkodran Mustafi, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Henrikh Mkhitaryan wrapped up a fairly comfortable win over the Hornets.

Wenger piled up praise for his goalkeeper and his “remarkable” achievement.

“The record is absolutely remarkable,” Wenger told Sky Sports.

“It shows fantastic motivation and a fantastic desire to always be the best. It also shows remarkable intelligence because without remarkable intelligence you don’t last in the game, because you have to deal with so many different problems.

“Congratulations to him,” he said.
