El Zen Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Really excellent. I’ve never trusted a goalie quite as much as I do our Emi. Whoever is keeping him out of the Argentina side must be incredible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superb signing. I don’t think there’s a keeper in the Prem performing as well as Martinez at the moment. His handling is just superb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trust the Argies to not pick their best available players for reasons only known to the higher ups in the AFA and a certain mr. Lionel A. Messi.

Guest av1 Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 I think what makes him so good is that an awful lot of his saves look pretty straightforward, but that is down to incredible positioning. In a similar way to Grealish, top players make It look very very easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 I grew up with Bosnich and Spink in reserve. Emi has played what 13 games? and I think he is the best goalkeeper ive seen at this club. His all round game is flawless. £20m. What a buy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 Brilliant again today. What a goalkeeper. Our summer business must be the best transfer window in our history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Just looking at some premier league stats and there is one called ‘high claims’ for when the keeper claims the ball. He is top with 16. However check this out, there is another table which is ‘punches’. There is only 19 keepers in the table. Apparently the guy has never punched it! What a keeper! 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was the fpl app for some reason it leaves the bottom team/player out. So there will only be 19 results shown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam2003 Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 He’s absolutely class isn’t he. I am not going to just assume his form will stay like this forever but if it does he’s as good as anyone in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Had him in my fantasy team when we played Leeds and Southampton. Since I shipped him, he has been fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He catches stuff that other keepers could only hope to punch, often not even a catch-bounce-catch either. He just straight plucks that mfer out the air. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember that advert for Continental tyres that ran at half time in the CL and the Euros for a few years? He catches like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa89 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 The simple joy of seeing a goalkeeper catch a ball instead of punching it is thoroughly satisfying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest av1 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 (edited) I really hope Emi becomes Argentina number 1. After waiting 10yrs for his chance to then finally become number 1 for club and country in the same season would be an incredible achievement. And I don't know why, but Emi seems like one of those characters that is going to love a packed holte end singing his name. There's another thread about the likeability of our squad atm, it's such a bloody shame that some of those that have helped create that are yet to hear the holte singing their names. There's going to be a lot of love for these guys when we can get back into the ground. That's why, and I know lots of you will disagree, but I'm really not fussed about winning any sort of ballot to go back with 2000 fans. Keep it shut until it's safe enough to go back in full.
