Imperious today.

The double save against the bar and then off the line was breathtaking.

He's just getting on with his job and there was no way Wolves were getting past him today.

as poor as Wolves are we lose or draw that game today if it wasn’t for Martinez
The blokes worth 10 points minimum a season I wouldn’t swap him for anyone

That save before half time was incredible. He touched it onto the crossbar then touched the rebound onto the post to safety.
Absolutely brilliant.

Yep, he has scored an own goal in similar circumstances but to rotate, reach out and push the ball away whilst still in mid-air was a tremendous reflex action. He might not have won the Yashin award last season but he won save of the season for the Prem and this is must be in contendership for this season. The difference is this one did win us the points.
