Tomaszk Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 He did it to himself by being the best keeper in the world for a year. No one is getting that first one. Second one is a worldie if he stops it. He got there. He'll think he should have stopped it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhan_Zhuang Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 The Saudi first goal was a tough one, Emi was at full stretch. No keeper in the world was saving that! I wanted Argentina to do well but some of their players are pretty average, the defence looks slow. They aren't winning the World Cup, no chance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delboy54 Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 This is my very selfish thinking as a Villa fan... Emi did great to almost save the Newcastle (aka Saudi Arabia) second goal, strangely though that's good for us. If he had produced a world class save and kept it out it would have bought him further to the attention of the so called top 6 and other top overseas clubs.... So keep trying Emi, but forget pulling off those world class saves, by all means get a hand to it, just don't put yourself in the shop window... !

First shot deflected around. Second had too much power. Big inquest into the poor defending tho. Error by Mings I bet 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 (edited) You lot are crazy. His angles were all wrong for the first one and the second one once he got a hand to it he should be saving it. A top keeper doesn’t concede goals like those and he is a top keeper. He’ll be kicking himself for both. Edited November 23, 2022 by Vive_La_Villa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d821mc Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 Absolutely comical blaming him for the first goal. His positioning was fine. It was just a great finish. If people are blaming him for that then there isnt a shot from that angle that can be scored without it being the keepers fault. The second one is much tougher. Only he will know whether he could have done more. Lots of keepers wouldn't have got anything on it. Almost criticised for getting so close to saving it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom13 Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 (edited) While people on here can be over critical of players, some posters can also be very defensive. Criticising him even when he's not playing for us? Well, he is still our player, of course we're gonna be watching him more closely than other players. Pointing out things that he could have done better isn't always harsh criticism either. Edited November 27, 2022 by Tom13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cutler said it on the podcast they were probably not saveable but Emi will now go back and work out how he can save it next time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post romavillan Posted November 27, 2022 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted November 27, 2022 Just thought I'd mention that Emi's shithousing is now world famous. The Italian commentators when he was coming to claim a ball in the box said something along the lines of "lets see if he feels something and has a lie down to buy some time like he does for Aston Villa" 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
