Pete the Canadian on The Holy Trinity said it was our first goalkeeping assist (in the league, maybe) since Weimann v Citeh September 2013.

What the Hell were we doing playing Weimann in goal? That Lambert was a fucking idiot.

Anyone notice if Martinez was emotional or not? Didn't appear to be in the bits I saw. His son can take a penalty though...

With my soppy hat on, his son's penalty was cute.

Never seen him happier. No tears, just joy.

For me - McGinn, Ollie, Emi and Digne - no point replacing them - the money we would get wouldnt pay for someone fit to lace there boots.

He should be in front of the cameras more often, excellent chat, obviously speaks fantastic english and can express his unique ways of thinking. Very very interesting to hear what he has to say.

Emi Martinez: "Argentina lost three of four finals in a row before I went into the Copa America. Some Villa fans in Birmingham say they've never seen a trophy. It's the same mindset for me going into my first Copa America, and I'll go in with anger and confidence."

Was cheekily asked about how he tearfully waved goodbye to Villans at the end of last season.

It looked to me like he had tears in his eyes after the game, but then, so did I.

He loves us, he gets us, I don’t believe he wanted to leave. He’s a villain, our villain.

He loves us so much he got himself sent off at OT because he knew this is exactly what would happen.
