It may not be difficult to select the winner in the transfer window, but it is easier to find the biggest loser, and Martin deserves it. Few football players will destroy their reputations with their own hands without obvious personal gains, but he did somehow.

This summer, players' rights have been reflected in many aspects. Isaac and Visa have achieved their goals through the strike, and Jackson's "sitting in Munich" eventually led to his joining Bayern.

However, Martin is facing the dilemma of having to return to Villa with his tail in his arms. He wanted to go to Manchester United on the last day of the transfer window, but in the end, the opponent didn't want him. Manchester United put up a loan offer for Martinez earlier in the summer and then left him alone, bringing in 23-year-old young goalkeeper Lamons.

When Villa was booed by fans in his home loss to Crystal Palace on Sunday night, Martinez was not shown, allegedly unable to "concentrate 100%" because he hoped to join Manchester United on the deadline.

In sharp contrast to him is defender Gee. 24 hours after Crystal Palace received a quote from Liverpool for him, he not only started, but also scored a wonderful goal, showing his top professional spirit. Gee's transfer was also not going to be a success, but he will return to the team with a higher rise rather than a damaged reputation.

Martinez's "collapse" is not limited to the last few days of the transfer window. After the last home game last season, he cried on the lawn at Villa Park Stadium, which allowed the team to prepare for the final round of key games to be completely dominated by speculation about his future. Worse, he was sent off in that game at Old Trafford, resulting in the team ultimately failing to qualify for the Champions League.

This time, Martinez can only blame himself. If he finally returns, he will have to pray that Villa's fans will forgive him. Even if they can't forget how this so-called "world number one" became the biggest loser in the transfer window this summer.
