next 4 matches ....interesting choices for Carlo re: Olsen / Pickford...could see him alternating if Pickfords not out injured....Pickford ( utd / Fulham ) Olsen ( Spurs / RS ) Cant imagine Pickford plays at Anfield
I would like him to do that, just dont want Pickford playing against Spurs, its too big a game, but thats what worries me, Carlo might think he needs his number one keeper in the bigger games
 
There’s 3 games off the top of your head when he’s had an absolute stinker. There are more, many of which went unpunished (fortunately for us and him).

That’s absolutely not “genuinely alright” in my book.
In the context of keepers in the league this season id say it is, could probably name 2 regular keepers in the league who haven’t had 2/3 bad games this season. Allison, Lloris, De Gea, Pope, Patricio have all had mistakes. Which incidents went unpunished apart from the derby? They’re off my head because it’s the only howlers he’s had, and agree it’s still too many howlers for us but just saying I thought he was better up until the Leicester game. He lets his emotions go too wild, made the first error v Leicester (clearing it for the corner), which led to the second (flapping at the cross), which led to the goal. Like me when I was 17 and stalled the car in driving lessons, head would fall off for about 5 minutes after and we can’t afford that to happen, just don’t think it’s happened as much this season.

Not saying he’s the answer and he’s got his obvious flaws, Olsen should start but up until the Leicester game I felt he had reacted well after the derby game considered everything that got thrown at him which was way over the top.

By alright I mean ‘okay’, he’s got too many flaws to ever be better than okay but I look around the league and the standard of keeping seems to be poorer as a whole so just meant it in relation to a lot of other teams.
 
Who is VJD...........The VJD method is a method of calculating target scores in rain-truncated limited overs cricket matches, devised by a civil engineer from Kerala, V Jayadevan. It is a method that is an alternative to the DLS (Duckworth, Lewis and Sterne) method. (google is your friend!)
Assume VVD?

Sorry mate my bad typo, yep I mean that laddie from across the park, long may he suffer.
 

Don't like any of our players being out injured, so wishing Jordan Pickford a speedy recovery. However, I'm hoping that if Olsen puts in a couple of decent performances Carlo Ancelotti will have the backbone to continue with him and make Pickford fight to get his place back. But if Pickford just gets his place back regardless... then what's the point?

The 1st 3 i thought is what would happen if both fit what you say for me, this was before the Leeds game that i expected Olsen to play if Pickford was fit or not, and was half thinking would he put Olsen in for the Derby as would not surprise me if they target Pickford with fouls due to you know what, saying that going by Caro's comments i dont think Pickford will be ok for saturday
 
Leon Osman on Talk Sport just now, talking about the keeper, more or less said Olsen should keep the shirt, without actually saying drop Pickford.
Said if a player comes in and does well he deserved to stay in regardless of who is the number one player, then went onto say how well Olsen has done haha
 

His thread on Rawk has suddenly sprung back to life over the last 12 hours lol


'The title looks gone for us now so surely its worth the 3 match suspension for one of ours to proper clatter the jittery little thug and end his season in the derby? If not him, then do the other one Richarlison.
I don't normally advocate violence but its about time that lot had a taste of their own medicine.
We've been too soft with them since Stevie retired.'


Oh dear..

How sad, typical though ignored the unpunished fouls by VVD before his coming together with Pickers. LOkk at previous games VVD has always got away with a lot of bad play.
