Ray Parlour and Trevor Sinclair say England should look at Aston Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez

Aston Villa snapped up Argentine goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez from Arsenal for £17 million last September, and the 28-year-old is unarguably one of the best in his position right now in the Premier League.

Martinez left the Gunners after 10 years when it emerged that Bernd Leno would be manager Mikel Arteta’s first choice this season, and he described the move as a step up in his career.

Villa secured home and away league victories over Arsenal this term, with the goalkeeper playing a huge role as his side completed a top-flight double over the Gunners since the inaugural Premier League campaign in 1992-93.
