Where is the Donk? He's getting more Daddy-Leave than the rest of us put together.

I also think we still need another couple of players brought in too.

Getting most of the injured players back will solve a lot of the problems, having so many players out so early in the season is very rare, for 2 of them to be long-term injuries picked up in the same week is even more so. I'd have liked to see someone like Feeney or Revan on the bench though, we don't have many defensive options right now.

Lets hope the away end get behind Olsen although I'm sure they will.

Hopefully, I'd like to think the Olsen 'jibes' have run their course at this stage. It looks like he's our backup for the season, so let's get behind him.

Emery said he's due back in training this week, think he had some kind of knock, but he's never been consistent enough for his liking, so he'll see if he can be consistent now. Or something to that effect.

I'd never give him any grief in real life, a little bit of fun/genuine despair on here is alright though.

I had a irrational bad feeling about today's game and Olsen in goal has probably turned that into a rational fear.

I really hope he has a good game and even though its a surprising formation im behind Emery completely.

Olsen will have a blinder or we will score 5 goals and not have to worry about him.


good luck to him

Fourth match of the season, will this be the one where we don’t get an injury?

Well I have a feeling that that is going to depend on whether he is competent between the sticks or a fucking liability.

Not really sure what to expect - we played awfully against a good team and got hammer.  We have played well against 2 awful teams and hammered them.

Not sure how to call this.  We have a weakened team, and maybe an unfamiliar formation / partnerships.

I don't know much about Kompany's burnley but there first home game since coming up - feels like it could be tough.

3 at the back or Cash out wide right?

Hope not Cash wide in midfield like he was in a home game v Wolves or Leeds last season. He didn't have a clue what to do
