Arsenal made perhaps the biggest signing of the summer when they completed a £10m deal for goalkeeper Petr Cech.
The 33-year-old will be playing in his first season with the Gunners after spending 11 years with Chelsea.

This move has inevitably drawn the ire of Chelsea fans. Blues legend Frank Lampard admitted that Arsenal will be a dangerous team with Cech in the net, according to Mirror.
“Cech is a world-class keeper and person and can help push Arsenal into the running next season,” Lampard said.
Cech has already helped lead the Blues to three Premier League titles before sitting on the bench for their fourth title run in the 2014-15 season.
The new Gunners goalie ended up playing second fiddle last season, due to the emergence of Belgian international Thibaut Courtois.
Arsenal rotated their goalkeepers last term, as they gave multiple starts to Wojciech Szczesny and David Ospina.
The Gunners will look to prove that there is truth to Lampard’s comments.
They finished in third place and are primed to make another serious run at the Premier League title.
