Not bad to have a BBQ around yours on a Sunday and be able to invite this lot round.

Is the fella in the blue hoodie and cap Leonardo DeCaprio?

They look a bit Chile .

I've just searched "names of south american countries" to try to follow that one but you take the prize...

Another clean sheet, 3 on the bounce in fact - monster keeper

Emi Martinez what a top keeper. My favourite Villa keeper of all time

It will take something for me to see anyone surpass the great Jimmy Rimmer, but he's overtaken Bossie, Friedel and Spinksy for me already....

Loved Emi's reaction at the final whistle against Leeds, that little fist pump and the smile said it all.

Still Bozzie for me, but if Emi helps us win a couple of trophies that could change

I had a cat that I named Bozzie. Died at 6 years old due to kidney failure... Premature ending for the young cat, bit like his namesake's career really....

Dibu!

Get the Dibu chant going....he'd love it.

PS I wonder who he was talking about at 31mins about someone who played great with no crowds but this season was hiding and not going forward as much. Hmmm.....

Im guess Targett. To be fair he had a lot more options with JG in front of him though.

100% Targett.

I did guess.

Emi's save from Dawson (I think) at point blank was exceptional today!

It was from the cat-abuser then Dawson missed the rebound. And yes, truly exceptional.

Shame about the two he did let in though, which were much easier saves although nobody expected him to save any of them

Both goals he was unsighted until the ball was virtually past him. The second one especially was made impossible by Mings dropping off and standing directly in front of him. I think with a clear view he could have saved either....

Very harsh imho. The second one the bloke hit it back across him and Emi's weight was going the other way.

I know Mings does it all the time, I'm sure I can't be the only one who notices he wants to play Keeper instead of attacking the ball or god forbid marking a player.

My point was Martinez saved one impossible save but couldn't manage 3
