Olsen may not be shit, but we always concede a shit load of goals when he plays. Time to try the aussie new bozzie

A guy on r/AVFC on Reddit apparently has 2 spare for today if anyone is interested. Might be worth paying for one and getting them to send you one before paying for the second.

Just been in the hotel lift with Robin Olsen! He was very focused/nervous; not sure which. Wasn't brave enough to ask if Emi was starting.

Did he get out at the wrong floor?

In his most recent column Max Rushden quoted an Arsenal fan saying 'this season's been great fun, apart from the matches.' Today is probably the most true that statement has been for me all year.

I hadn't even considered the possibility that Olsen might start, and now..jag skiter på mig själv.

He’s probably still in it, he hates coming out of his box.

There is a pic doing the rounds on socials of Emi chilling with family and whoever has posted it has captioned it 'Sunday'. Most are taking that to mean he hasn't made the trip.

Didn't Martinez himself say he was hoping to be back for the trip to Piraeus? I took that as meaning he'd not be fit for today, anyway.
