I once bought some really expensive tyres but bought an A reg Fiesta.

The concern for me is not injury to Emi but as we are playing the highline and reliant on him playing "sweeper keeper" then there is always the risk he mistimes a tackle and gets sent off.

I would hazard a guess that this will happen at least once this season

We are going to risk Europe and the other cups on a clown in goal. Bizarre

I just don't see how one so good at his job as Emery sees Olsen and thinks we'd be alright starting any match with him in goal.

I'm leaning towards the Emery can't say "yeah, we're replacing this guy ASAP because he's shite" because he's just a nice guy like that, but behind closed doors he's got Monchi working overtime on it.

“Ok except for the shocking error” not what you like to hear about a keeper, mind.

I agree, I think one of the biggest problems he has now is, like Mings a couple of years ago, his mistakes get highlighted and overshadow everything else.

But you do that in the Premier League, and they're going to get slotted away. Lazio have been shit up front, in any case.

I know, I just feel a bit sorry for him when he's actually had a decent game otherwise.

If he kept a clean sheet, they can't have managed any assists!
