Tom13 Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Olsen may have played well but every time I see that free-kick from the angle of behind Foden, he could make much more an effort to try and save it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom13 Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 More on Zaniolo/Konsa though for sure, just winds me up to concede such a pathetic goal. It should have been a shit free-kick instead SSN are wanking over how good a strike it was. Cringe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cutler said he is the best no.2 Emi could find, he calms him down as Emi can be emotional and does a great job. 2nd keeper is not just to be back up its more than that. He isnt a back up outfielder that can fill a gap so will play more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say in the other post it’s totally on Zaniolo (and Luiz for giving the foul away in that area) but yeah it’s day one of goalkeeper school, sort your wall out and then only cover the half of the goal the wall isn’t covering. edit; in short I don’t think Olsen really did anything wrong with that Edited April 4 by alreadyexists Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen howlers in a Roma.shirt and a Villa shirt and I've been a critic from the start but last night he was great. Could have been 7 or 8 had he not done some good work. They were just showing the highlights of our match in the gym. Indeed reiterated, he made a number of quality saves. More than I actually even remembered.

I'd argue this was an easier save to make. And this is no slight on Emi whatsoever. I think alot of us have a serious case of armchair/FIFA player syndrome. Whereas we think things are much easier than they look when you're actually on the pitch. A great example is the body am footage we had from Tielmans earlier in the season which shows the intensity of what these guys are actually doing and have to contend with. Keepers can't see THROUGH the wall alot of the time until it's too late so I genuinely sometimes wonder what kind of superpowers ppl think they have or should have Edited April 4 by JAMAICAN-VILLAN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a top class save in the first place that lead to the corner. No chance with the first two. I actually thought he looked far more confident than ever before, was claiming crosses like a man possessed. Feels like Emi was a big doubt coming into this so he was half prepped to play anyway. Only thing he got wrong was rushing out too quickly which totally befuddled Carlos when it should've been a straightforward back header but that's just a lack of communication/decision making between two back up players for us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
