Why couldn't Big Cutts get the best out of Olsen? Maybe that's why he was sacked.

Jk. Maybe.

I got in the ground handy the other day and it was clear that the  goal keeping coach was more detached than Cutler's hand on approach

He could have joined Martinez on the bench. No but seriously he was very calm and claimed crosses well.

Very very solid today. Makes us now think that he might be a good enough back up to Emi. The defence being really structured helped a lot but when he was asked to do his job he did it very well

Did everything he needed to do today with a minimum of fuss.

Prob his best game so far.

He didn't really have a great deal to do, caught about 4 crosses? Which is progress from his last few performances tbf.

I'm still very dubious, but kept a clean sheet so fair play to him.

I thought his distribution today was pretty good, apart from one dithering in the second half which resulted in a rollocking from Emery. He also seemed more willing to venture from his penalty area, his timing of interventions was good.  It will be very interesting indeed to see who starts in goal on Wednesday.

I'm happy for him to be honest. Would have been easy decision to bring Martinez back in but Emery was rewarded by Olsen putting in a solid display.

The throw out that led to the Davies Yellow card was really distribution from him, best thing he did all game.

best game so far but not hard when you literally don’t have a single save to make
caught a few balls in the air which was an improvement

Did what he had to do well, which is all you can ask for.

However, he had almost nothing at all to do.
