If he's really that bad Emery will replace before the windows end and everyone's happy Absolute bollocks, and you know it. Do you think Olsen is good enough to start games for us should Emi get suspended or injured? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lexicon Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 Gave it away cheaply once, fine other than that and done the sweeper keeper stuff pretty well. The defence has been good/Fulham haven't threatened much, so he's not had a lot to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villa Gaffa Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 Its just impossible to have any confidence in him. You just wait for a mistake to happen ! Another keeper is so important with so many games coming this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another keeper is so important with so many games coming this season. You have to build confidence and then maintain it with games. I'm not sure about him but if he's showing it training and it is just a confidence issue then we need to give him a chance and forgive him a few dodgy moments, all keepers have them especially when they aren't a regular starter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. I have little doubt that if there was a good young keeper we could sign, the club would do it on principle. But any new GK needs time for the defence to adjust - I don't think there is another Emi-type keeper out there. But as much as Olsen scares the bejesus out of us - we can't keep having a revolving doors of keepers in the club. We are wasting millions. Plus - Unai has shown how much he can improve our players - why can't he improve Olsen? Having said all that - I would prefer he was replaced!

Being a keeper is the hardest position on the field, from a physiological perspective . A number 2 keeper with Emi being number 1 is a nightmare scenario, he's so good..

Looks like we are gonna go with him as number 2 this season, so you are right we need to back him and try to get behind him. But he isn't up to the job and we can all see it, so think your fighting a losing battle by telling a fan forum not to criticise a player that we can see that, If we were playing under Gerrard I'd be less concerned but in this system, our keeper has to be very reliable, which he clearly isn't.
