The disorientating image of Petr Cech in Arsenal colours seems to have taken hold of Adidas after they mistakenly sent his goalkeeper gloves to Chelsea.

The Blues though passed up the opportunity to help extend their unbeaten run over the Gunners as they returned Cech's prized assets in good time ahead of their clash at the Emirates on Sunday.

The 33-year-old crossed London in June 2015 after spending eleven years at Stamford Bridge.

Despite spending half-a-season in North London already, the Czech's gloves manufacturers still haven't got to grips with his change of location.

A Chelsea insider told The Telegraph: 'There were a few smiles and mischievous remarks when Petr's gloves turned up here, but we made sure they got back to him as soon as possible.'

Cech has been in superb form for his new club and has been widely credited with assisting their rise to the top of the Premier League table.

With Cech due to start in goal again for Arsene Wenger's men on Sunday, the Frenchman is hoping to welcome back star duo Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil to the starting eleven.

Ozil missed the draw at Stoke City with a toe injury, but is expected to start the game against Chelsea, while Sanchez is aiming to be involved for the first time since November.
