Other more creditable sources on twitter are saying the personal terms are agreed and Arsenal have agreed to let him leave. Just have to agree fee and get their replacement in.

Wezbid Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Some comments from 2 Arsenal fans I know and another who hates Villa Arsenal fan 1 - "Very good keeper mate. In the games he played last season he was superb! I’d hate it if Arsenal sell him but Arsenal need the cash" Arsenal fan 2 - "I think he is great too Seems like a nice guy that has always been in the background of the club and overlooked but always ready" Villa hater - "I love Heaton Loved* Martinez is quality. Shame they spent so much on Leno" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Successful clubs have solid foundations that are there for years like the goalkeepers. I imagine there are more clubs with keepers approaching 10 years....like Ter Stegen of Barca or for the potential of 10 years Courtios was brought for that by RealMadrid. Fair enough there’s been a few. But most were younger than Martinez. 5 yrs out of him would be great though Edited September 10, 2020 by mikeyp102 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomaszk Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 He looked seriously good last season. Better than Leno IMO. There is a niggly thing where he's hardly played in his career. Been on loan to champ and league 1, why has no one come in for him? Solid ambition though. Going for #1 targets. Why didn't we do this three weeks ago again?

Pinch of salt, but the narrative follows, he wants guaranteed 1st team football. I wasn’t convinced as I thought Heaton was soon to be back. Can we talk about now how Heaton has a been a bit overrated since he’s been here. This seems an upgrade, but I don’t know too much about Martinez beyond last season exploits.

Howd you know Smith is the one doing the talking and its not Lange or Purslow, either way someones got some sweet smelling Ball Bags that can attract the players.

Smith seems to have aided in the Watkins deal but that's all I've read in any dealing involving Smith this Window. Thought the club usually keeps this kind of thing hush hush anyway and do not release such info?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
