What on earth were Arsenal (Edu?) thinking. I’d argue that moving here has also given him a huge confidence lift. The way the fans have taken to him, the way Deano has taken to him, he must feel on top of the world. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post villarule123 Posted September 25, 2021 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted September 25, 2021 I used to scoff at people last season who said he was our best GK since Bosnich. I think he will surpass him if he stays for a while. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even Brazil were afraid of him, had to get the Brazilian government to make up a reason to get him off the pitch. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It worked. Guys an absolute machine, beyond his theatrics/mind games, the way he comes out for the ball, the way he commands his box. I never shit myself at set pieces any more, never worry about daft goalkeeper antics, he’s an absolute monster between the sticks and he loves it here too. I genuinely have never loved a squad like this, starting from the #1 down to our back up defenders. Best keeper in the world. Bang on. They had a couple of potential chances from some good through balls, but on both I just thought “Emi will be out for that”. And he was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferguson1 Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 (edited) ^ good question above. Is he our all time best already? I’ve been watching the Villa since Nigel Spink days and always thought Bosnich was an immense goalkeeper and best I’d seen……….but this fella Edited September 25, 2021 by ferguson1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post GingerCollins29 Posted September 25, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 25, 2021 I love him. A gentleman off the pitch and a mad bastard on it. How many gks in the world would start taunting potentially the greatest plsyer of all time before a last min pen, then celebrate the miss by thrusting the goalpost in front of the opposition fans. Statue of him required. Love the man 16 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, and I think there is sometimes more to “world class” than simple performance. Lots of keepers make great saves, lots of guys save penalties and such like. I think world class is about the whole package. What do these guys do off the pitch? How does their personality infiltrate the team? How do these people lead? How are they in high pressure situations? Emi ticks every single box, and it’s why I wouldn’t swap him for any keeper in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khizzy Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Better than Bosnich for me, any day. Just the fact that he practically won the Copa America for Argentina as well shows that he is probably the best keeper in the world right now. Very, very lucky to have him and for such a small comparative fee. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
