Keane and Wright clash over Chelsea's Martinez signing

Roy Keane has publicly disagreed with Ian Wright's assessment of Chelsea's £7.5 million signing of goalkeeper Martinez from Aston Villa, questioning the player's defensive record. The transfer follows Robert Sanchez's shaky performance in Chelsea's opening fixture. Keane criticized Martinez's tendency to concede goals and parry saves into dangerous areas, despite acknowledging his character. Wright praised the deal as potentially taking Chelsea to the next level, while former teammates Nicky Butt and Paul Scholes also backed the signing, citing his World Cup experience and value. Martinez conceded three goals on his debut in a 4-3 win over Brighton but will face a significant test this Sunday when Chelsea visit Premier League champions Arsenal, with both teams holding perfect records after two games.
