The problem is, how do you get a competent back up keeper to the worlds best. Knowing that you will rarely play (except for injury cover) and your career will be over.

I think he's out of his depth and it's got to him psychologically.Hutton said something in his interview about how you can't underestimate confidence as a factor, how powerful it is. With Olsen, we're seeing a perfectly OK career keeper, an international, nothing spectacular but a decent pro, basically reduced to a big jellied eel by lack of confidence.Do you think maybe it's the change in focus with keepers needing to be actual footballers now? Some of the older generation struggling with it, De Gea is an absolute liability as well.

We're in the situation Spurs had with finding a decent backup for Kane, tough to convince anyone to sign knowing you're not getting a game unless they're injured and not really in position to throw silly money at someone because you can.
We need a solid pair of hands as no.2 Tom Heaton was absolutely fantastic option , shame he left. And then a decent no.3
When Forest are relegated Navas will be free, so we should give him 12 months contract as back up for Emi.
