Several Chelsea fans who felt betrayed by the exit of Petr Cech to Arsenal who are their bitter London rivals have resorted to using the social media to send out life threats to the former Chelsea number one man.
As Arsenal fans are currently buzzing about the transfer of Chelsea's former goal keeper Petr Cech, 33 to Arsenal, an opposite reaction follows from Chelsea fans who have made him a target of death threats following the official announcement of his transfer on Monday, 29th of June, 2015.
One fan targeted his family with a tweet on Monday reading: “Say goodbye to your family for one last time before they go to sleep, you won’t be seeing them tomorrow you snake idiot”.
That fan has since had his Twitter account removed.
Another Twitter user named @Enegali10 posted: “F******** off just saw Cech signed. Go f*** yourself. F****** brain damaged ugly sk**. Hope your kids have cancer. F****** nonce.”
He added: “I’m going to bring my SR-25 sniper rifle to the Bridge when we play Arsenal. Will be so f****** good to see Cech’s blood on the pitch.”
Another said: “Hope we sign Arda Turan now so he can cause Petr Cech another head injury,” referring to the head injury Cech suffered in 2006, while another added: “Cech is not bigger then our club, you are deluded & dumb if you defend him. He’s a traitor & a snake. No other way to put it.”
There is no official response from both Arsenal and Chelsea to these threats which may not be taken slightly by the Police in England.
The Czech goalkeeper spent 11 seasons at Stamford Bridge, but spent the 2014/2015 campaign as second choice behind Thibaut Courtois.
