It's his birthday today.

It’s Kim Jong-un‘s birthday too. I’d rather have him in goal.

The trouble is he would line up all of our outfield players in front on an anti tank missile launcher

Actually…!

I don't care how shit he is, he should not be getting beat like that for the second goal or making the error for the first.

He should never play for our great club again.

Terminate contract and get someone else in.

I'm really not happy about today. I am actually a bit angry. Season over really.

Mindless ball to a player with his back to the action on the edge of the area and as slow to get down as Frankenstein's monster would be. Another Lange beauty.

The actual ball to Dendoncker was fine and it was him getting caught on the ball that caused the problem, but you have to question the decision to play a ball out like that in the last couple of minutes of a cup tie.  He'd played one into midfield that got intercepted not long before that which should have acted as a warning.

There is no way he should have been beaten by that shot for the second goal.  Awful defending in the lead up to it, but he has got to save that.

Absolute clown of a keeper. And people were defending him after Spurs when he didn't have a shot to save?

Total garbage.

Silver lining albeit splattered with shit, is barring an injury that is the last time we should see Robin Olsen represent the cup.

instead of buying footballers in this transfer window we should make it top priority to purchase a missile launcher first

One of life's great mysteries remains how the fuck is Olsen Sweden's number 1 goalkeeper? In fact how is he even a goalkeeper let alone an international goalkeeper?

He must be up there with one of the worst keepers we've ever had.

I can see someone's head rolling in the not too distant future over the way our money appears to have been wasted.  We saw what happened when Mr Sawiris ran out of patience with Steven Gerrard, no kiss of death statement about having the boards full support; just whack! The guillotine just dropped.  If I were a gambling man I'd have a flutter on Christian Purslow.

I like this, it's better than '1 Robin Olsen, there's only 1 Robin Ooooolsen'.

Yep, probably a mutually convenient face-saving retirement at the end of the season.

I never want to see this guy in our team again!
What I said in November.  There's no way he should be letting that in at his near post yesterday!

Can only assume No 2 Dirk Haemorrhoid has no hands.

Jeez they must be struggling as a nation if this lad is the best they have.
