Mantis Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 I know nobody is going to compare to Martinez but he is genuinely the worst Villa goalkeeper I've ever seen, and nobody even comes close. I trust Unai will ship him out in the summer. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comically worse. Not that long ago, we had to suffer Orjan fecking Nyland for christ sake. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember Enckelman and Postma? Also Nyland, while poor, was much better than Olsen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaVilla Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 (edited) i wont comment on the ball he dropped/spilled leaving an open goal that was luckily missed....but..... the more i watch that Toney goal, the more annoyed i get with it, Olsen literally moves across his goal in a completely upright position, as if he's going for a stroll, if he was rushing across, semi crouched/ready to spring, like most keepers would, he may have had a chance of saving it, but Olsen literally walks across his goal, completely upright and it goes through his legs.....while he is still standing upright, its like he was a member of the Kings Guard he was so straight and upright, no bent knees or spring, ready to adjust.............then he falls on to the post as he tries to close his legs. He is a really, really poor keeper, even his basic starting body shapes are terrible. just look at this......

Captain_Townsend Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 What was the story with Kallinic, he didn't last long? Olsen is very poor but he has competition from the likes or Postma and Enkleman. Michael Oakes is still my favourite no.2 'Keeper. Could always be depended upon when Bosnich was out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it was a much less experienced Konsa and Mings. And not sure why you've only mentioned the CBs. The team as a whole was much weaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinker Posted April 22, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted April 22, 2023 He needs game time before he can be judged, the last time he came in he had a couple of poor games and then hit some form and was decent. He's not to blame for today, we was poor in midfield. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KentVillan Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Defended him before, and still don’t think he’s that awful by backup goalie standards, but we could really do with replacing him in the summer with a more accomplished keeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the time it was players like Tuanzebe and Chester, he never had players like Moreno in front of him, and the likes of Konsa, Mings and Luiz were not as experienced as they are now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indigo Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Between Schade's awful header, Olsen's attempt at dealing with it, and Schade's subsequent miss I'm not sure they'll be as hilariously bad a sequence of play in the whole league this season. At times such as the Spurs win away Olsen can look passable but I think he's just an outdated type of keeper in this era of the game and it inevitably shows itself. Terribly slow and uncomfortable with both being out of his own six yard box and having the ball at his feet. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
