Emery was also annoyed with his childish antics at the WC and said it out loud.

He was dominant at both the Copa America 2 years ago and this past WC though.
He's just a different player for Argentina when more is at stake.
Not a day in, day out world class goalie like a Neuer, which is no shame.
At least he is clutch when it matters.

He isn't beneficial for his club though. That's a huge red mark. He was only good for a little while at Arsenal when he broke through.

Yeah, Dibu was good during Arsenal's FA Cup run and also the 1st season at Aston Villa.
His level at Aston Villa did drop, but not sure how much having the WC in the middle of the season impacted his game.

Tbh, his body language shows he's achieved his sporting objective in life.
I think you guys should cash in on him. Could easily fetch 50-60 M for a WC winner/golden gloves winner who had the most clutch save of football history.
Usually I'd advocate for Emi instead of MATS but MATS has been playing lights out and Emi is kind of bad with his feet

Doubt they even get 30 tbh. Martinez is nowhere near MATS level and in truth has been pretty average for Villa. Was shocking today, sometimes watching him it's like every shot on target is a goal.
Conceded a lot during WC too but will have a memorable campaign because of his great penalty-saving ability, something he is truly good at. But it rarely comes into play in club level. On top of that he seems to be very arrogant and there was already rumours Emery wanted him out for his attitude.
Doubt any club better than Villa will want him as their starter and if they do he will be out the next summer.

I think we will try to sell him in the summer. If we had any sort of reasonable backup he'd be dropped i'm sure of it.

He's a good GK, all keepers have stints of good and bad form.

I personally think his head has gone since the WC and now thinks he should be playing at a title fighting club. Which is fair enough but there's still three months of the season to go yet.
He's time wasting all game, his distribution is currently ridiculously bad, and he's not saving anything on target.
Emery speaking out against him in todays post-match presser could potentially make things uncomfortable, especially as he's currently captain too.
