Mr_Dogg Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 (edited) Emi Martinez still confuses me. What did he do at Arsenal? He has emerged as a beast and a leader but only really started his career in 2019. Edited July 7, 2021 by Mr_Dogg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of keepers sweep up, including ones who are rubbish with their feet like Pope. Oblak doesn't and he's the best. I'm sure if he or Martinez played under a coach who wanted their keeper to sweep high up or play the ball only short they'd both be fine at it.

Just my general frustration with a section of our fanbase. Whenever we do well or a player excels, a few usually spoil the moment. It’s so unnecessary. No offence taken - it wasn’t intended to cause so much fuss and attention (it’s not like I’m posting endless ramblings about bringing ex-players home!) (The gif responses were hilarious!) This is the best condition the club has been in for decades. We are a great club and building something special - our players are already being touted to move to ‘bigger’ clubs which is something we will continue to have to deal with. Martinez is great for us as a club, as are we to him and if he continues in this manner, no doubt huge bids will come in for him from the World Elite. It’s a sad reality but hopefully one day, we can be that elite team that can pluck whoever from their club on a whim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
