“This is not the trophy we lift!” Petr Cech orders Arsenal players to NOT celebrate pre-season victory

Arsenal fans are loving this clip of their goalkeeper telling his team mates he doesn’t want them to celebrate winning the International Champions Cup.
Ask most Arsenal fans to tell you what is wrong with their team, and you will hear one word mentioned time and again.

While teams like Chelsea are hard-nosed and tough, ready to do whatever is necessary to get three points, Arsenal supporters worry their team are too soft.




Hence why the clip you can see at the top of the page is currently making those same Arsenal fans VERY happy.

The video shows the Gunners being presented with the trophy for the International Champions Cup in Shanghai.
Arsene Wenger’s side won the ‘competition’ by beating Bayern Munich on penalties.
A reason to celebrate, you might think. However, Petr Cech – who was captain on the day – had other ideas.
As his young team mates bounce around and start to get excited at lifting a trophy, Cech gives them a ticking off – and insists they shouldn’t be so happy about winning a meaningless pre-season tournament.
“This is not the trophy we lift, guys,” you can hear the goalkeeper telling them. “This is not the trophy we lift. Let’s lift the big one at the end of the season. Not this one!”
The words of the 35 year-old have been like music to the ears of many fans.

Why? Because it proves that at least one of Arsenal’s senior players has a real, actual, proper winning mentality:
