5 defenders?

One of them might be in midfield, or it could be the three at the back we've seen.

Which would make sense. Because you know. Olsen.

5 of them just standing across the goal line makes sense with Olsen there.

Ha ha ha.  Brilliant.

I said the other day that as soon as Unai said it was just a small injury to Martinez, we would be lucky to see him play again this side of Christmas!!

And that will be on the pitch to announce his retirement.

I dunno, if Emi has to miss any matches Burnley and a dead rubber against Hibs seem like as good as any. Hopefully he's back for Liverpool though.

Digne in the team sheet photo suggests he's not off anytime soon.

Lets hope the away end get behind Olsen although I'm sure they will. Would have maybe preferred the extra midfielder but we'll see how it goes.

I suspect Olsen will be responsible for conceding a goal today

Great. Old butter-fingers in goal.
