Emi Martinez is starting to show the Arsenal fans exactly what he's all about.
Our 27-year-old shot stopper's association with the club goes all the way back to 2012 - and it's fair to say he's earned his moment in the spotlight.
We've won all four of our games since Emi stepped into the side following Bernd Leno's injury, with the Argentina international keeping clean sheets in all three of his Premier League appearances this season.
Martinez will be looking to ensure another shutout when Leicester visit Emirates Stadium on Tuesday night - but Mikel Arteta is not surprised by Emi's approach to his sudden call.
"That's what he's been trying to do for a long period now at the club," Arteta said. "As I said before, his preparation and his attitude has always been spot on.
"He's been very respectful and very patient and now that he has the opportunity, he is grabbing it. But at this level it's not about two, three, eight or 10 games.
"It's about the consistency over a lot of games and that's what he needs to prove now."
