Emi Martinez

[Rudy Can't Fail]

I might have that tattooed on my arse.

Enough boasting about the size of your arse.

Considering he's already got every page of Aston Villa The Complete Record by Rob Bishop tattooed on there it's high praise indeed from Risso. Even though he's a big lad there can't be be much terra nullius left.

[Drummond]

It's only 41 years since we were in the Champions League/European Cup, not 45. Doesn't know our history despite the Holte regularly singing 'We even conquered Europe in 1982". Poor show from him.

I really don't like' we even conquered' as if we shouldn't have.

He'll have to start eating bread again to fit that on.

He wants to play for Argentina in the Olympics. Football in the Olympics runs from Jul 26-Aug 11. So he'll probably miss most, if not all, of pre-season and the start of next season.

[darren woolley]

He's just brilliant.

We shouldn't have really, given Bobby Robson's Ipswich were the league champions in 1981.

Question on Pointless today - name any player who played in the 2022 World Cup final.

Astonishingly, Emi was a pointless answer.

As they were talking through the answers, when she mentioned Emi, the lovely Vick Hope said the words "Aston Villa" when referring to the team he played for.

It was beautiful.

A moment of television history😁

Same.

Just another in a long line of examples of our fans acting like we're a small club.

I'm probably wrong, but I thought you had to be no older than 23 to play at the Olympics.

To be fair I struggle when people sing "mil novecientos ochenta y dos" at me.

[Somniloquism]

I think you are allowed two over that age in the squad. However I don't see a keeper being a big miss at pre-season.

You can have three overage players.

This is why Ryan Giggs was able to play for Britain at 2012.

This is why I thought I was wrong. I just wasn't sure why.

[OCD]

You're allowed 3 over-age players so there's the hope that they pick 3 outfield players and Messi's supposedly another that wants one of the spots.

Edit - Smirker beat me to it.

[Dogtanian]

Probably wants a gold medal because Doug’s got one.
