Olsson is one of the dimmest footballers I've ever seen (in a footballing sense)

he never seems to anticipate anything, he just reacts. When someone plays a ball behind the fullback for him to overlap you can almost see him go "oh sh*t" before legging after it, rather than looking for such a ball and being on the move ready for it.
I didn't see how he was an upgrade on Garrido last season and I still don't. He might be marginally quicker but he negates any advantage that might give him by not having the football brain and positional sense that Garrido has.
