He was a very good defender for us, the only person who was glad to see him leave was Kevin Sheedy

He was the boo boys favourite for quite a while before he became amazing. Our own fans used to shout donkey at him

He was very good. Too good for us at the time.

Was alright, better for Arsenal, though even still he overated for me, like he wouldnt get near our all time top 10 centre halfs, was in the right place at the right time at Arsenal.

Heard he was a bit of a bell with us!

martin keown was a class act

He's got the brains, would be a great addition to the backroom staff to be honest. He absolutely loves Ross as well.

This post sums up best how I recall Martin.

He was "alright".

I think some of our friends on here are remembering him through tinted specs

If he tried that again, Dunc would lay him out.

I have a vague recollection of him going off with a busted nose , pumping his fist to us in the zenith data blert cup at Wembley ! Or I'm having a LSD flashback in which case please ignore this post.
