Petr Cech was the only signing Arsenal made last summer and he had an exceptional 2015-16 season. The 2016-17 season however, is off to a rough start. Cech conceded four goals, none of which were really his fault, as the Gunners succumbed to Liverpool in the Premier League opener for both teams.
I mean how could anyone stop a rocket like this from far out range by Phillippe Coutinho? (Video here)
Cech then returned to the car park to see his automobile smashed up a little.
Not a good day for Petr Cech. He concedes four goals and he's just smashed his car up in car park at Emirates. #AFC pic.twitter.com/9GHxeZ9Ozw

Cech has now opened up about the car crash and explained what happened today.
Petr Cech told Arsenal Player:
“What happened is that I hit a pillar, that’s the reality. How it happened is hard to say but you know it’s one of those days where just nothing is really happening.”
“We were just getting out of the car park and talking about the game and suddenly I just heard ‘careful!’ And that was it.”
“Everybody else was fine. We were going very slowly. Obviously in the car park you cannot go any faster than a few miles an hour. So that was the lucky part of it.”

The important thing here is that nobody got hurt. Obviously, better days are ahead for Petr Cech and company, (and his Audi of course) They take on defending champions Leicester City on Saturday.
