Since the 1-0 win away at Chelsea in February, Zhang Zhetian has made Arsenal fans forget about another goalkeeper in the squad, former Czech national team goalkeeper Peter Cech. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

With the exception of conceding a refracted goal at the Allianz Stadium, Zhang Zhetian has kept a clean sheet in other games, and some Arsenal fans are ready to sing the Gunners' patron saint song for Zhang Zhetian on the match day of the championship.

Once, Zhang Zhetian was the patron saint of the University of Coimbra, due to the overall strength of the team, although Zhang Zhetian performed well, but conceded a lot of goals in some games, but the fans of the University of Coimbra who know the ball know that most of the goals conceded have nothing to do with Zhang Zhetian, and almost all the goals conceded, there are very few goals conceded because of Zhang Zhetian's mistakes.

It's a pity that the University of Coimbra, which was relegated to the Portuguese League, couldn't retain this talented Chinese goalkeeper at all, and the team had already lost hope of promotion to the Portuguese Super League halfway through the first season of the Portuguese League, which is one of the reasons why Zhang Zhetian is willing to transfer to the Premier League and accept new challenges.

Because he has grown too fast, staying in the Portuguese league will hinder the momentum of strength.

Well, in terms of playing games, it means that Zhang Zhetian has accumulated a lot of experience points from D-level, and after being promoted to C-level, he needs to change the map to fight monsters and upgrade, if he continues to stay on the original map, if he wants to upgrade again, it will take ten times as long as the original upgrade.

Some people will say that you can go to the Portuguese Super League, but the problem is that at that time, only the two giants of the Premier League were interested in Zhangzhetian, and Zhangzhetian's options were very limited.

However, he is also mentally prepared to stay at the University of Coimbra without being satisfied, where he can also challenge for the Player of the Season and the team of the season in the Portuguese league, and also hope to win the Goalkeeper of the Season award in the Portuguese league.

Of course, after the transfer halfway, he could not get these awards, leaving only the brief legend of the University of Coimbra.

After coming to the Premier League, Zhang Zhetian's hands on various honorary awards were soft, and in just two months, he already had 10 honors in his hands, except for the best player on the spot.

Among the many active post-90s goalkeepers in Europe, whether it is Mark Ter Stegen, who is in charge of Zhetian's friend and senior brother "Little Lion" and "Kahn II", or "Little Buffon" Gianluigi Donnarumma, who is regarded by the media as his lifelong enemy, or Poland's international Wojciech Szczesny, who is on loan, has not done it in his first season with the giants.

'It's a shame he came too late, otherwise he would have been one of the contenders for the Premier League Golden Glove award this season.'

"If he wins the Premier League Golden Glove, we will have three Golden Gloves."

During the international break, Gunners assistant coach Steve Boulder said the above two sentences in an interview with Arsenal's official staff.

The Premier League's 'Golden Glove' award was awarded in 2004/05, when Chelsea man Petr Cech was the first goalkeeper to win the award, keeping 21 clean sheets in a season, the most clean sheets in a single season in Premier League history, a record only achieved by former Manchester United goalkeeper and former Dutch international Edwin van der Sar in 2008/09.

Last season, Cech won the Golden Glove award for 16 clean sheets, the fourth time in his career that he won the league's top honour, tied with Manchester City's Joe Hart, and Arsenal's second Premier League Golden Glove award.

Arsenal's first Golden Glove award was won by Roma loaner Szczesny, who won it in 2013/14 and ended up sharing it with Petr Cech, who was still at Chelsea at the time, after missing out in the final round due to a rotation.

Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois had 13 clean sheets in 30 Premier League games ahead of this season's Premier League Golden Glove award, ahead of Manchester United's David De Gea (11 clean sheets in 30 games), Tottenham Hotspur's Hugo Lloris (11 clean sheets in 27 games) and Southampton's Fraser Foster (10 clean sheets in 30 games). Prior to his arrival at Arsenal, Gunners goalkeeper Petr Cech had kept seven clean sheets in 23 Premier League games.

Note: Only goalkeepers with more than 10 clean sheets are listed.

Since the 24th round, Zhang Zhetian has made 4 consecutive appearances in the Premier League, all of which have achieved clean sheets, plus today's game with Manchester City, if Zhang Zhetian can achieve a clean sheet in this and the remaining 10 games, he will have a chance to take the lead.

But as Boulder said, it was too late to get the shot, knowing that in the last four seasons, 16 clean sheets for goalkeepers would be enough to win the Golden Glove, but with eight games left (based on 30 league games), Chelsea's defence and the skill of Manchester United manager Jose Muñirio will not be a problem in helping their goalkeepers reach and break 16 clean sheets, not to mention Lloris, who have been in super good form this season, and Tottenham, who have conceded the fewest goals in the league.

"However, in the remaining races, Palm can try to break the record set by 'Calm Cat'." Boulder laughed.

In the 2008-09 season, Samir Nasri was twice pierced at the Emirates Stadium and Peter Lovenkranz knocked on the door at St James' Park, "Calm Cat" Van der Sar kept a clean sheet in 14 consecutive games, a total of 1,311 minutes without conceding a goal, setting a record for the longest clean sheet in the Premier League and the longest clean sheet in Europe's top five leagues.

At the age of 38, Van der Sar was 38 years old, and it can be said that he is getting older and stronger, and the older he gets, the more demonic he becomes.

Coincidentally, as long as he is not plagued by injuries, he will play the final 15 games of the season without conceding a goal, and if he can keep a clean sheet, he can break the eight-year-old record for the longest clean sheet in the Premier League and Europe's top five leagues.

Also, less than a year after his debut, he transferred to a giant team for the first time, and after only playing for two months, he won two Champions League Player of the Week, twice was selected for the Champions League Team of the Week, twice Arsenal Player of the Month, twice Premier League Player of the Month, and twice PFA fans voted for Player of the Month. Ronaldo and Leo Messi.

"If we can maintain this good momentum and form next season, we have a good chance of winning the European Golden Boy Award and the European Rookie Award at the end of this year."

Here's what Sky Sports ace commentator Martin Taylor said ahead of the Arsenal-Manchester City match.
