2020/21 Robin Olsen

[bluenorthwarrior]

Clear to me that Pickford is the better keeper. Not even close on that.

Also true though that Pickford is a mistake a game guaranteed at the moment.

On balance got to be Pickford as No.1 for me, stop the rotating of keepers as that doesn't help anyone build confidence.

Some of his kicking was poor but he should be given a run in the team and given the 50 mistake buffer that Pickford’s had.

Sign a proper first choice in the summer if he doesn’t look up to it.

 

[Lloydystark]

Some of his kicks were literally awful, Pickford atleast kicks me out for a throw lol

 

[MACCA75]

He’s gonna be one of those ‘the more you see him, the less you like him’ keepers isn’t he.

So Olsen plays 3 individual games and you make a judgement of Pickford being better
Not sure how you can come to that conclusion
A run of 10 games, then I think you can make an informed judgment

I have heard some people saying he was bad tonight, I don't get that at all. He kept us in the game early on.

His kicking was a bit wayward today but that's about it.

He reminds me of Joel Robles a bit. Big gangly bloke who never looks quite comfortable but usually manages to get the job done.

I liked Joel though.

Olsen or Pickford are not our main problems at the moment. The huge problems lie in midfield.

 

[Wat Tyler]

Priority for me in the summer would be a top class keeper

 

[Egil Olsen]

Olsen says that Olsen is a completely average goalkeeper. Has seen him more than three games, and has a pretty good overview. Rate Pickford as a better goalkeeper, but none of them are long-term good solutions.

@TheBigIguana. Goal from outside the box.

This, regardless of our keeper, is because we leave opposition players with way to much space just outside the box. Any half decent professional footballer should be able to pick a spot to beat a keeper from outside the box if he has the time and space to do so. The amount of times Pogba and Fernandes were left free on the edge of the area tonight was a disgrace. I mean they are pretty good players like.

 

[Papa Shango]

Just get Romero in please

He is no better than the other two. I don't get the obsession with him.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

When the ball is lobbed in the box I'm not saying to myself "oh crap..."

 

[JMT]

I thought he was decent apart from that nonsense he did near Cavani.

 

[Bedfordblue]

Exceptionally fortunate when dillydallying with the ball and closed down by Cavani, otherwise thought he was pretty average, couple of decent stops especially the double tap from Cavani but his distribution was poor to counter balance that. We couldn’t keep possession so the last thing we needed was the goalie persistently giving the ball back to them.

 

[Parker]

Pickford is clear number 1 after that game.

Tbf to Olsen that's his first "off" game. All the saves were right at him, his kicking was woeful and he got away with an absolute clanger.
