Have to say it, Emi saves that second, and he saves the fourth, too.

I agree.  Olsen is beyond rubbish.

I know it might be harsh but that view behind Olsen makes me think that he should still do better.

Irish commentator thinks he should have gotten his hand to it and pushed it around the post.

Yeah, he sort of tries to wrist it up. Strange.

Olsen wtf

He's much improved, apparently.

I must be hallucinating all the 2s, 3s and now 4s conceded when he plays.

It's like having no keeper at all.

Nothing to do with Cash not pushing up, Luiz inexplicably handballing and a deflection. Apart from that, yeah Olsen to blame.

I’ve tried to be kind to Olsen and give him the benefit of the doubt where possible but he’s a walking disaster.

It was an unfortunate set of circumstances, but Emi would have saved that. And the second.

I dunno, I think Martinez might have stopped one but he'd be saving us from our own players, who have been pretty rubbish in defence tonight.

Think he saves three of them, TBH.

And probably saves the two on Sat.

That can all be true and Olsen still be poor.
