"It's interesting, when you look at Premier League goalkeepers, I would say over a number of years now five, 10 years or whatever there's not many characters. Whereas if you go prior to that, there were characters around in the game for whatever reason. I think it was conditioned out of goalkeepers. Kind of like: 'I've just made a mistake, but you don't know because you're not allowed to see it.'"
"[Emi Martinez] has character. Everything about him is character. He's a big, big game player, but it's almost like he wants to be in the biggest game. We look at Raya's situation at Arsenal, the Ramsdale situation at Arsenal, and the fact that Martinez was allowed to go because of Bernd Leno. Leno's a decent goalkeeper, but doesn't necessarily have character. Martinez would have been the perfect goalkeeper, I think, for Arsenal right now."
