dunno how he still gets the role
I get he's much older now and his enthusiasm would've swayed but fuck me he always sounds bored now and it ruins commentary
The Jim Ross of football. Just needs to know that it's time to hand the mic over to someone else.
Just hasn't sounded enthusiastic for more than a few years now.
Yes and he has had a career outside of the world cup. He's not bad or anything, just average mid-table gk who is exceptional at pens. It's not like he's going to move to a top team.
He's always been a pretty average keeper. He had one purple patch at arsenal before we sold him plus hes good at pens / his antics people think he's better than he is
He was a great shot stopper at Villa first season, at Reading and at Arsenal, that's not true he didn't have just "one purple patch"
But ever since then both stats and eye test say he is shit at everything but pens and claiming crosses, he is terrible with his feet, his shotstopping is not good

Martin Tyler is so dead man
watching clips here in other languages highlights how dead the english commentary is
Love me some Bein Arab commentary
Allaaaaaah!
That one [commentator](https://youtu.be/tWCwzn9Xz-A?t=0m9s) making car noises while the player was running is amazing
I'd never expected something like this… but that's magnificent!

> dunno how he still gets the role His resume
grandfathered in. Probably great great great grandfathered in tbh

No noise from him would've been better than whatever that was.
He has lag you can't blame him, he's been doing this too long
His "and its liiiive" is so forced now (well for a while)
Link to him commentating this goal?
Uh oh they are pissed
Goalie should be doing better.
It was a good header, defender completely lost him and gave him a free header
What?
I mean maybe he could've saved it but it's not an easy ball.

😣
Us conceding a stupid goal from a corner: volume 3764
I smell a storm brewing. Villa might get dicked down today.
They'll have to come out and play now, which will just suit City's strengths. Could be in for a rough one.
I think they're angry.
Yeah I’m so shocked
Insane header tbf.
Least reactionary r/soccer comment section
Who from Aston Villa was following Rodri's run? 🧐
So, about that back three…
A lot of people criticizing Dibu, doesn't help their defense is a strainer lmao. That was a banger from Rodri
that's the price of being under the spotlight. It would've been an incredible save had he done it, but that's what people expect from him now.
Imagine thinking all of this wouldn't fire City up. There's a siege mentality now.
Wow Halland looks different.
Second half of the season Rodri >
Up the sportwashing cheating cunts!
Martinez has been quietly pretty bad in PL this season
Martinez, on the other hand has been an absolute baller
I dunno I heard Martinez had to play through with ankle injections
Choose your fighters: Brazillian Gabriels vs Argentinian Martinezs FIGHT
Martinez is pretty big to be so small
He recused a ton of points almost single handedly in January? Villa would have lost the Leeds Game and the Southampton game
Absolute bollocks pedaled by an idiot
r/soccer users don't actually watch games. We know how good he is
Peddled fyi. Pedalling is what you do to a bike.
Lol thanks
very harsh to fault him there
Yeah its not like goalkeepers rely on their defense to perform.
Not really fella
The Villa defense is absolutely dire, pretty sure that has more to do with it
most of the goals conceded are caused by mistakes in the backline. He's good but he wont be able to save most 1v1s or 2v1
He only was good during WC, otherwise he wouldnt be in Villa
Well he’s been with villa since 2020, so that doesn’t make sense.
Exactly my point
What I would say if I had no ball knowledge
He wasn’t even that good in the World Cup
lmfao
Ok buddy
Yeah, Id say he was "clutch" but not good throughout
He's just exceptional at against pens and average at everything else.
His 120th minute save in the 1vs1 against Kolo Muani was a massive factor in Argentina winning the WC
Yeah, but that one save is not representative of his body of work. The same way a poor finisher can have an incredible finish occasionally.
I mean he got barely shot at in the world cup tbh.
Yes and he has had a career outside of the world cup. He's not bad or anything, just average mid-table gk who is exceptional at pens. It's not like he's going to move to a top team.
He was pretty bad during the WC too, but he saved that one crucial shot from Kolo Muani and saved penalties.
Also saved a last minute one against Australia
>he saved that one crucial shot from Kolo Muani and saved penalties. So he was pretty good then.
Statistically, no. Let pretty much everything else in.
Yea he had that good first season then has been woeful for Villa. A diff animal in pen shootout lol
Other than final he was one of the worst GKs
He's avg to shite at everything besides penalties.
Mom pick me up I'm scared
👌nice
Imagine if arsenal lose the league by 1 point because of VAR
Lmao this is such a stupid thing to say
PGMOL that you?
City could argue the Rashford goal in derby would've given them 2 points though
City can play that game as well though. Every team can.
City was robbed of points by the ref against United so it cuts both ways
City got fucked vs United too
Are people forgetting how city were robbed against man UTD ?
Yeah, must really suck to be fucked over by VAR against Man United 🫠
Didnt happen to u lot this season tho....
[удалено]
It was the right decision... eriksen was fouled in the buildup
Mate,.. PGMOL even admitted it was an error and should have stood
Ah yes. As we all know PGMOL is super competent...
You literally beat united after a dodgy var red card took out their best player lol
The Casemiro red happened after the Arsenal game, Casemiro had accrued too many yellows which is why he missed out on that game.
Ah my mistake
no way that could happen...
Yea that's just so unlikely....
I've been imaging it for hours.
Literally happened to Liverpool last season
The scenes
Emi Martinez is so average
Dont let the Messi fans hear you bro...
Best player this season, scores.
Emi needs to do better there
No idea how Martinez got shortlisted by FIFA
Emi the type to only play well on one team.
Erm, how do you think he earned a call up?
Bad goalkeeping
‘ave it
good ebening
what happened to martinez man
He's always been a pretty average keeper. He had one purple patch at arsenal before we sold him plus hes good at pens / his antics people think he's better than he is
He was a great shot stopper at Villa first season, at Reading and at Arsenal, that's not true he didn't have just "one purple patch" But ever since then both stats and eye test say he is shit at everything but pens and claiming crosses, he is terrible with his feet, his shotstopping is not good
Oh no a howler from Martinez? But, but, but, he is world class??
You just can't get Messi's dick out of your ass lol
Yeah I can't get Messi's dick out of my ass with my Madrid flair. Sit down idiot.
I feel like other teams don't even try vs City lol
Dibu Courtois should have saved that.
Dreams can't be buy
Anyway...
It's over
Bruh, I go downstairs to turn the game on my tv after watching the first minute and it’s 1-0
Boooooo not like this
