We need Martinez, a really solid back up and a very promising youngster.
I don’t think you could read too much into whether Olsen is going to be the ‘really solid back up’ from yesterday but if Gerrard makes the deal permanent we’ll find out in time.
The dirty manc bastards that assaulted him should have lifetime bans.

Of course when we win the league our knucklehead minority won’t do that will they?

Don't recall Villa fans ever attacking opposition players to be honest. I remember one or two going on the pitch, seemingly to confront Savage before, thankfully, bottling it.

Off the top of my head I remember full scale pitch invasions against Coventry (1989), Tranmere, Liverpool and Inter Milan (1994), Arsenal (1996), Blackburn (2010), West Brom (2015), Middlesbrough (2018) and Leicester (2020).

At the West Brom one I remember being surprised at how there wasn't anyone acting the twat and how everyone completely ignored their players.

There was one fan who ran past one of their defenders at full-time, the clogger stuck his leg out, tripped the fan up, and he just got up and kept on running.

His performance at City was underwhelming - Foster apparently is a free agent at Watford, would take him any day as back up to Martinez

Well, that Romano journalist guy who seems to be always correct is saying we’re close to completing a permanent deal for 3.5m euros.
It’s always hit and miss with reserve keepers, but it’s a ‘why not’ for me. If he’s happy to sit on the bench in the main, he has a decent pedigree with the Sweden caps and the varied club experience.

It's also a yes from me.

Ben Foster has said he would be open to being our second choice keeper behind Martinez and he would want to push him and make him better. I would go with him tbh.

That would do for me. Frees up an extra non-Home Grown spot in the 25 man squad, too.

I reckon if we went in with £1,000,005 per week in wages we'd get him.
