Couldn’t agree more Derek
Agree with this statement.
About as relevant as the goals Brewster scored for Swansea in the context of Sheffield United
Olsen isn't bothered about being at United (he's not the only one) and his performances this season have been average at best, but you are correct that he will be back in the team when fit but this will be down to money shelled out for him not down to him deserving his place in the team. For me Foderingham hasn't put a foot wrong in the games I've seen him and deserves the shirt. You talk about him being a bombscare, I'd say quite the opposite, his performances have been calm and assured and made all routine saves look easy, he has also probably came and dealt with more crosses and corners in his 4 games than Olsen has all season. There is a lot to moan and slag off this season but laying in to a guy who has played 4 games, done well, and actually looks like he wants to be here seems a bit shitty to me.
Looks ready for a short break. He's a decent player but I think his blistering start put too much expectation on his shoulders.
I prefer to judge players on form not on the career they have had, which in Olsens case isn't as good as you would have us believe. One season playing consistently in Roma's first team in a career so far spanning 14 years doesn't really fool me into thinking he should be an automatic pick week in week out. His international form must be very good to have played over 50 games, or the keeping options in Sweden are piss poor. I haven't mentioned Burke in this thread or Billy Sharp but as you did I will offer my opinion - Burke has had no form since his Nottingham Forest days, and has been consistently shit for every club he has been at since so therefore doesn't deserve to be anywhere near our matchday squad. Billy Sharp hasn't been as good this season as he was last time out in the championship, however he does have the top assists and scored the most goals this season so I would say based on that he is justifying starting at the moment over other strikers who cant hit a barndoor/crash cars/perpetually injured/out with covid/look like they have won a competition to be professional footballer for a season.
Hasn’t Slav said that Olsen is out for a few weeks?
You judge it with your own eyes, yet you're basing Olsen being better than Wes (for Sheffield United Football Club) on his career stats, rather than his sketchy performances so far this season. Make loads of sense
Sharp is the other one you slag off, yet you're saying because Brewster and McBurnie are younger then they should be in the team. This is despite the fact that neither of them have done anything that your eyes will have witnessed to back this point up (for Sheffield United).
You also say you don't form opinions on players, but you refer to him as League one Wes and Olsen as Sweden's No.1. That suggests a preformed opinion to me.
Keep trying on the WUM front though, it might pay off one day.
I was pretty underwhelmed with his signing. In hindsight, we could have just stuck with Moore. Appreciate he had a bad hand injury for a decent part of last season but if both Ramsdale and Moore had been out and we hadn't signed Foderingham then we would have been afforded an emergency loan I believe anyway.
The thing with Olsen is that 50 caps is impressive but it also does raise the question who is challenging him?
You seem obsessed with ‘not playing them as a number 9’. They’ve played in forward positions and looked absolutely shite. £40m for players who, according to you, can only play in 1 role. They must be good
Think you'll find I nailed that one
