Our summer signing has been arguably the best goalkeeper in the competition so far.
After last night's clean sheet in the 2-0 win against Porto, Edouard Mendy now has 7 clean sheets in the competition so far.
To put this into context, Mendy has already overtaken Petr Cech's best Champions League campaign - the former keeper kept 5 clean sheets in 3 separate seasons across his career.
Mendy is averaging 3 saves per game with an unbelievable save percentage of 96 - these are insane numbers!
Moreover, the keeper is yet to concede a single goal from open play in 700 minutes of UCL football.
Across the season, Mendy now has 21 clean sheets in 34 games. What a signing!

@walex my blues blood brother I dey ur back 247. blues tii eternity.
Of course, overtaking Cech implies only his clean sheet record. We're not suggesting that Mendy is as good as the former Blue, Cech is easily the best PL goalkeeper ever. We can't expect Mendy to reach that level but his current level is absolutely elite, so who can complain?
...and who says he can? he's still almost a new signing brother
and why can't he not teach that level?
He's going to reach and surpass his level by far
it's not a definitive no but I won't be dreamy and say that it's possible. Keepers like Cech come once a generation, Mendy is already 28 and needs to catch up to keepers like Oblak first.
29! cech came in quite early.
29!
drama😭😂😂😂😭
He can surpass that. And I know Cech will be happy if he does because he chose and brought him in Chelsea. He will be proud of him as his boy.
Wow, this is incredibly amazing! What a beast of a goalkeeper!!!!
