The fact that Arsenal fans aren't happy he's allowed to leave shows he must be a good goalkeeper.
What are you basing that on out of interest? He has barely played for Arsenal over the years and after getting his chance at the end of last season made some outrageous saves and kept a load of clean sheets. Commanding keeper as well, fantastic handling.
Mean no disrespect to Ryan as I like him.
Purely my opinion, informed by the football I've watched over a long period of time. I've often been wrong about footballers previously, and I'll continue to be consistently wrong about them for as long as I live. I may be wrong about Martinez and if he keeps playing every week he may very well develop like Nick Pope has done and become one of the most reliable goalkeepers in the country. I didn't see that potential in Pope, and I could be wrong about Martinez as well but I'll always have an opinion and I'm happy to change it, as I have with Pope, if he earns it.
Right now though, I don't think he's better than Ryan and if he's not better, then why sign him?
So you think Ryan isn't giving 100% and he's treading water just because he can?
Interesting, tell me more.heaton is injured
Enlighten me.There are more options than the frankly bizarre black and white scenario you've plucked from thin air.

I agree with Stat Brother that this idea of 'competition', in the sense that suddenly Ryan will improve his game, is a fallacy.
However, competition in the sense that if Ryan makes some mistakes or has some bad games, that we have someone that could take his place, is correct. With Button and Steele, we have not had that.
Is that not the exact job Walton has been groomed for?
I think we need a new striker, I guess that means Maupay and Connolly aren’t giving 100%
You seem confused.
Ok Stat Brother, everyone else’s opinion is wrong and you are 100% correct...
