Could you explain why you would post this?

[Somniloquism]

Well being as the thread is Emi's, I suspect his performances against the French....

[Bad English]

Yes, French refs hate Digne, Diaby, Kamara, and Lenglet too.

Casual racism.

You'd think they could sort from from somewhere other than the axis powers, no?

I'd be quite happy with a shy, unobtrusive Japanese fella compared to the last two attention seeking muppets.

Emi is enemy number one in France. Don't you remember the stick he received from the Lille fans? It was intense, bordering on insane.

[Bad English]

We love him really.

Did you know that this season  Emi Martinez has spent the most time on the ball ! Added up it's more than any other player in the premier league! Goal Keeper or Outfield!
As of last week.

Emi Martínez on Instagram:

“Our European hopes are gone in the semi final. I’m hurt & disappointed to be knocked out so close to the final — it would have been a dream to lift that trophy for this club. On the other hand, we can still qualify for the Champions league after 42 years. I will give my best in the next 2 games remaining. Thank you for your support all over Europe. UTV.” 💜

Reads like a farewell

I think it is more likely a language thing.

I think by "The remaining 2 games", he probably meant "the last 2 games of the season"

You don't announce you're leaving two games before the end of the season, and I also don't see who could afford him that need him, that wouldn't be arguably a step-down. 

I also don't see we would want to cash in on him.  So I only see it happening if he wants to leave, and we have a release clause and Real or Byarn want him.  I cant see any English club he fits at, and PSG have a pretty good GK already.

You have to try very, VERY hard to make that read like anything other than a disappointed player rallying the troops for the final push.

[VillaTim]

He's going nowhere .

[Bad English]

Probably Canadian English interfering with comprehension.
