Emi Martinez

[Skipper_The_Eyechild]

He’s made some great saves this season, and not just inconsequential ones but ones that have won us points. Conversely he’s also started getting stuff that should be basic wrong, and that’s cost us goals. Crosses under the bar and today’s goal come to mind. I think he probably nets out positive at the moment, but he needs to cut the sloppy stuff out.

I wonder what has happened with corners etc, I don't recall him previously being like this? Is it just the change with attackers being more aggressive and getting away with more that he doesn't know how to cope with?

Maybe at corners we miss mings?  we have a lack of physicality in the team, and at set pieces I think we lack a bit of organisation and leadership

Actually think he's been better this season than last.

But it was a bad mistake tonight, as was Pau's.

He has definitely been better than last season, I just don't think he is of the level anymore where I'll be really gutted if he goes. Saying that, maybe I should be worried after our summer recruitment.

The lad in goal for Yanited that we were going to sign as part of the triangular transfer move, looks distinctly average so I'm glad we have Martínez and not Lammens but I think Emi is going through the motions a bit at this stage of his Villa career.

I said it a year ago and I’ll say it again. “The world’s number one “ never in a million years. Basic errors with alarming regularity.
