Garnacho scored a great goal today....but Martinez in his form today saves it.

Helps being 6' 5" and not having T-Rex arms.

Or go off injured after 86 minutes and watch Olsen concede three.

Fuck sake. You can see it. The first would be from Olsen doing what that Sheff Utd keeper did yesterday.

Just watching the highlights of our game and the commentator described one save by Martinez as 'saved by the world champions goalkeeper'.  Couldn't bring himself to say 'saved by the best goalkeeper in the world'.  The tosser.

I don't need him to praise Martinez like that but the way he worded it sounded really weird. Why not just say "saved by the world cup winning goalkeeper". Does anyone refer to the world cup winners as world champions?

Brazilians, they chant 'Pentacampećo' (Five-time champions) quite a lot.

I'm taking the piss out of the shit Ollie gets.

Do you think Man City fans give Haaland stick when he misses chances? All strikers do, even cyborgs.

and often at a pretty similar rate strikers generally score with something like 1 in 5/6 shots and Ollie is smack bang in the middle of that.

I don't watch enough of anybody else's games to be honest. I think the thing with Ollie is his misses quite often stem from poor technique and they sometimes turn out to be expensive in terms of points dropped. But overall he's doing very well this season, his goal yesterday was excellent when there really didn't look to be much on.

He's a classic example of a forward who misses chances others don't even get because his movement's so good.

Although he does have to work on his heading. The last few missed chances with us and England have been him attempting glancing headers instead of powering them. Even the weekend, admittedly under pressure from the defender, the ball seemed to hit his head and fall down rather then any power given to direct it.
