Don't really care what he does for Colombia.

Been good for us and long may it continue.

He was good for half a season that's all. Been a disaster since Cech joined.

The more I watch him the more I realise he makes standard saves look overly acrobatic

As long as they don't go in they can ride on a unicycle juggling swords
Never understood the made a meal of that thing
Better than being to casual and letting one in

Whilst I do agree in that as long as they don't go in that's all that matters. The fact he has to make a meal of it is due to poor initial positioning.

I'd much rather Martinez was our 2nd choice than Ospina.

Agreed. Letting Szczesny and Martinez go while having Ospina was a mistake imo. Martinez isn't even playing with Getafe. He could've at least got the cup and EL games with us. Poor decision making at the club as usual

Not sure if people are being serious about Martinez over Ospina lol

Ospina is fine. Bar the Olympiakos clanger 2 years ago, hes not made any goal conceding mistakes. Good shot stopper, catches the ball and can defend near post unlike the shit Czech we have

That's just not true. Only need to go a couple of weeks back for his latest clanger.

Had an entire football stadium to aim at with his clearance, but somehow managed to give it straight to a Köln player after leaving his goal unguarded.

Forgot about that. Did well to come out but a shit kick.

Still, rather him than Szczesny or Martinez, 2 bench warmers, one at a shit club and the other 2nd choice to a grandad

Szczesny's final season at Roma is a class above anything Ospina or Martinez have shown during a season during throughout their career.

Cosigned on Martinez who at 25 still has an awful lot to prove - his overall experience as a professional is limited and there is nothing to suggest he is currently better than Ospina.

Szczesny is a fantastic goal keeper minus the odd brain fart which he seems to have removed from his game since his loans.

Ospina can pull of some good saves however he is weak at seat pieces and is often caught out of position.

The deflected shot he had no chance of saving?

The fact he even got an hand to it proves his awesomeness. Would've been better if he didn't try to save it and just dived the way the ball was going before the deflection. Then people can't use it as a mistake laughable as it is.
