I think that is one of his biggest strengths

Cuts inside a lot, but can follow it up with a shot on target, but can also go down the wing. He seems to have a good footballing brain from what I've seen - better than Huckerby's, for example. Time will tell, but he's one of the most promising young players I've seen at FCR.

- Isn't equating Olsson as merely another Garido a bit simplistic ? (n/m) (NCFC) - FlipFlop, Sep 3, 11:34:02
  - both foreign, both left backs. That's enough for (NCFC) - Pixelman, Sep 3, 15:08:09
  - No ;) (n/m) (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Sep 3, 11:37:07
    - ok. we'll see :-) (n/m) (NCFC) - FlipFlop, Sep 3, 11:50:23

- This is going well Larrald. (n/m) (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Sep 3, 11:19:53
- Presumably predictable means "beating defenders and scoring goals"? (n/m) (NCFC) - yarmyyarmy, Sep 3, 11:16:12
  - his step overs are so predicatble all defenders easily tackle him without fouling (NCFC) - essexcanaryOTBC, Sep 3, 12:18:51
  - Exactly. I'll take 'predictable' if the definition is scaring the shit out of defenders (NCFC) - Yellalee, Sep 3, 11:17:52
    - Hull wanted him to cut inside (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Sep 3, 11:21:14
      - And against Southampton? Predictable? Or does your label stick after just two games? (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Sep 3, 11:47:43
        
        He has played 4 games this season (n/m) (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Sep 3, 11:57:24
        
        Are you really counting the six minutes at the end of the Bury game now? lol (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Sep 3, 12:05:05
        
        Only went outside a couple of times (n/m) (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Sep 3, 11:55:16
        
        Right. So not *always* predictable then I guess. 30% of the time he went outside maybe? (NCFC) - Yellalee, Sep 3, 11:57:40
        
        Only about twice over 4 games (n/m) (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Sep 3, 11:59:01
        
        sample size equal to shit (NCFC) - essexcanaryOTBC, Sep 3, 12:20:11

        But 100% more in the last game. i.e. not predictable. (NCFC) - Yellalee, Sep 3, 12:04:16

        You know all this "oh he always cuts inside" mental horseshit? (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Sep 3, 12:09:01
        
        Don't you'll confuse him even more... (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Sep 3, 12:09:48
        
        So patronising as usual (n/m) (NCFC) - RyanTurns, Sep 3, 12:18:20
        
        He does do patronising extremely well tbh (n/m) (NCFC) - Rhymes with Anchor, Sep 3, 12:50:24
        
        Hi RyanTurns. Nice second post. Presumably a long-time lurker, yes? (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Sep 3, 12:21:15
- Do you go to any games?? (n/m) (NCFC) - MaxsHandler, Sep 3, 11:15:20

  - We need someone who can hold the ball up like Holt and Roberts could.. (NCFC) - BSE Canary, Sep 3, 11:20:55
    - I really want to see Hoops in action. We really dont know much yet. (NCFC) - FlipFlop, Sep 3, 11:25:16
- What easier chances has RvW missed? (NCFC) - duke of york, Sep 3, 11:12:48
  - Just a few (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Sep 3, 11:17:28
    - Don't remember the Saints one from a few yards (NCFC) - duke of york, Sep 3, 11:19:13
      - he'd already been blown up for offside so was a casual swipe (n/m) (NCFC) - Pixelman, Sep 3, 11:25:31
        
        yeah, I remember seeing a really early flag near the end of the game (n/m) (NCFC) - scruffy, Sep 3, 11:29:20
      - That was Elmander on the follow up from Leroy's chance, wasn't it? (NCFC) - Dog, Sep 3, 11:24:06
        
        Oh, well that was just a scramble (n/m) (NCFC) - duke of york, Sep 3, 11:28:02
  - I dont think RVW has had a bad miss yet. Not really had a chance to shine yet (n/m) (NCFC) - FlipFlop, Sep 3, 11:15:33
- Did you not watch the Southampton game? (NCFC) - Drinklebells, Sep 3, 11:12:13
  - And Redmond went both down the wing and cut inside in that game (NCFC) - duke of york, Sep 3, 11:13:22
    - I think that is one of his biggest strengths (NCFC) - scruffy, Sep 3, 11:19:49
