Robin Olsen (The World's Number Two)

[paul_e]

I thought he got better as the game went on, at the start he looked very nervous, and a ferw dodgy kicks didn't help him, but his command of the box was good and all 3 goals  would be harsh to blame him for. For the price I don't see any real downsides to this, and his age means we can give the younger keepers a couple more years to develop and then phase them in to replace him. i think he's an upgrade on Steer who  I like but just don't trust to stay fit.

What worried me in his, admittedly, first and only game was the apparently-poor communications that seemed to be contributing to the problems; most obviously in the first half but also perhaps with Cash for the Gundojan far-post header. He's been training with us since January, but it didn't look like he had.

I reckon if we went in with £1,000,005 per week in wages we'd get him.

I'll chip in the fiver, Woodhall can pay the rest. Job done.

It was a big game to come in and make your debut. He looked understandably nervous early on, and his kicking was especially atrocious. He seemed more confident later on, although I think he could have done much better for one of the goals.

He is an international goal keeper, I would of thought that he had played in bigger games.

His kicking for a premier league goal keeper was poor, did okay with the catching of the ball from crosses etc..

Didn't he launch one that resulted in Ollie having a free run on goal?
Or am I dreaming?

I think it’s pretty hard to judge from one game. If we can get him in relatively cheaply I can’t see the issue.

Yes, and route-one'd it for Coutinho's silky finish.

So kicking definitely improved after the earlier mishaps, thanks Eamonn

Well done Robin. Clean sheet in your UEFA Nations League win vs Slovenia. A solid 24 hours for our two keepers following on from Emi picking up his own clean sheet and a trophy for Argentina vs Italy.

Two lucky punts, some would say.

Maybe. But if he’s in the team for a little stint next season and it happens with some regularity then perhaps not !

[cdbearsfan]

There was some fair distance on those kicks, lucky or otherwise.

Now signed properly like.

All done
