A welcome home for Martinez
It takes a great player with a good reputation to leave a club with no hard feelings. This describes Emiliano Martinez to a tee, as despite no longer playing for the club, Arsenal fans still love Emi as one of their own.
And why wouldn’t they? The Spanish goalkeeper served many loyal years to the Gunners and although he didn’t quite make it until his last season, he learned from the likes of Wojciech Szczesny and Petr Cech well, to eventually go on to win an FA Cup for the Gunners.
Now he is playing for Aston Villa and finally getting successive game time, something he fully deserves. He will come up against the club which he professes to love and there will be no hard feelings between the two.
Arsenal attackers know exactly what they’re coming up against, Aubameyang in particular as he has kept in contact with his former teammate. Although, it’s not like he will take it easy; the Gabon international is back in goal scoring form and he will look to continue this against the Clarets.
