LATEST HIGHLIGHT: Following Aston Villa’s victory, David Seaman claims to have witnessed Emi Martinez do something that “wound him up.”
Emi Martinez was possibly the happiest man inside the Emirates on Sunday.
The Argentine not only won without conceding a goal, but he also triumphed over his old team in their home stadium.
Martinez was formerly an Arsenal player, as many will recall, and it’s safe to assume that there is some animosity between the two following the Argentine’s less than cordial exit in 2020.
David Seaman has been talking about Martinez and some of his antics after the final whistle on Sunday on the Seaman Says Podcast.
What Emi Martinez did after the game
Seaman spoke about the Aston Villa goalkeeper’s antics.
“I was watching him after the game giving him loads. Unai didn’t give it loads afterwards but Emi did. But to be fair to him he deserves to do it as he gets a lot of stick from the Arsenal fans. He has a lot to back it up as well, he is a fantastic goalkeeper. He is that annoying character and really good. It wound me up a bit when I saw it but I thought you deserve it today.”
Emi Martinez was always going to do this
As frustrating as it must be for Arsenal fans to see their former player acting in this way after a win at the Emirates, it can’t come as much of a surprise at this point.
Martinez has made a career out of being world football’s chief wind-up merchant, and he was never going to pass-up the opportunity to get one over the Arsenal fanbase.
Deep down, Martinez does have respect for Arsenal, but on the pitch, he doesn’t care about club allegiances or respect, he just wants to win and rile people up while doing it.
