Almost breaking our transfer record and spending a large portion of our transfer budget for a keeper just didn't seem like a sensible thing to do. And that's why I'm not a football manager. Agreed. I remember thinking it was bonkers we were spending that much on a 28 year old reserve keeper when he'd be warming the bench when Heaton was back. I've learned a lesson or two 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's golden glove territory that is, he's already my leader for POTS. The difference he has made is unfathomable and he only cost £20m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More so that he is just playing so well I'm struggling to think of any GKs who you can say are better than him. That by itself is going to attract the attention of top teams. He was at a “top team” for ten years... and didn’t get a sniff in. Even when he single handedly won them the cup last year, they STILL replaced him... I think that might be playing on his mind should another “top team” make enquiries because he won’t want to be a benchwarmer again 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zab6359 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Has to be our best summer signing and will be here for years hopefully. Is there a keeper in the PL with better distribution? He's just a class act. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWARLEY2 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Up there with Allison . Genuinely worth 60 mill already. Look at the other night . Darlow is highly rated but as a shot stopper. He panicked when Ollie beat him in the air. No way Martinez would have let that happen. He is brave . He is strong . He leaps like a cat. He always tries to catch the ball rather than punch. Amazing with the ball at his feet and never panics. Can throw the ball over or underarm accurately and with pace and his goal kicking is ace as well. An amazing signing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CosmicVillan Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 I haven't felt this confident about a keeper since we had Bosnich in goal. What a signing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wanted them to keep him and sell Leno instead. A lot of Arsenal fans felt the same way. To be fair Leno is also a top keeper but Martinez is proving to be one of the best around.

villalad21 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 That was really disappointing from him today. Wonder if he was affected by Konsa shouting at him in the first half. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Was off today. Didn't claim a few balls he usually does, and surprised he let that 3rd goal in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 That's the first poor game he's had for us IMO. I'll give the guy a break because I'm sure he'll be back to his heroics at the weekend, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmygreaves Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Just now, villalad21 said: That was really disappointing from him today. Nope..... Thought we was his usual self. Possibly some blame for the second but the others he didn't have a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Even great keepers can have bad games. But the game should have been out of sight at half time. When you miss so many chances you always feel it’s one of them days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippo Posted January 27, 2021 Author Share Posted January 27, 2021 I wonder if he wasn't 100%??? ...See Konsa giving him the verbals when he didn't show for a ball ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
