Robin Olsen (The World's Number Two)

[Brazilian Villain]

If we somehow dont make Champions League then I would think there's a gentleman agreement to sell Martinez.

We'll get Willy Caballero in exchange?

As to be fair he has to be playing champions league.

Not convinced with this. He seems content with the fact Villa gave him the chance and he has gone on to win the World Cup and the Golden glove. The ECL pails to insignificance to this achievement.

On the other hand Martinez has mentioned several times about wanting to play Champions League with Villa. If we don't do it this season, I think he'd want to play in it somewhere else, and we'd probably let him.

Possibly, but he may give us one more season if we failed to qualify this season. We’re probably ahead of expectations of where we should be.

Martinez isn’t stupid. It was great to hear him say that stuff about being in the CL with us but the ‘emotional’ flip side to that is definitely that it works both ways if we can’t.

[Drummond]

Anyway, Olsen is doing better as our number two. But that's all he should ever be.

I suspect in time he'll be usurped by Gauci.

[pauliewalnuts]

Olsen has done better in one match so far. I don't want to be harshly unfair on the guy - he played well last time, his distribution from feet was much better than usual, even - but it's one game where he's looked ok, and several where he's looked terrifying.

I doubt Gauci is going to be ready to be number 2 for a while yet, so I'd like a Heaton-style signing to replace Olsen for a year or two.

[Risso]

Is Gauci playing U21 games at the moment?

I think Swinkels and Lutz are leading him astray.

Player insight
Watkins said Olsen and he are always the first down for breakfast on morning for games. The early risers

Olsen keeps it straightforward and has a plain crepe.
“I don’t want anything on it “ says Olsen

[KevinGage]

Amazing. Thanks.

I don't think he's the only one full of crepe.

[Andy_Lochhead_in_the_air]

I usually have two weetabix with cold milk no sugar, two slices of toast lightly buttered.
Haven't conceded a goal for years.

[Flamingo Lane]

I enjoy a crepe in the morning myself. Before breakfast, if at all possible.
