No, there were times he lost discipline

Like when he switched off against Aguero, when he good reading of the game would have cut out the ball. Like when he forced GON to give away a dangerous fk, while standing around marking nobody and doing nothing. Like when Dorrans and GON were forced to double up vs Navas instead of him.

Even when Navas cut inside he had a bunch of players in his way. It simply wasn't a 1 vs 1 man marking job, although there were times Olsson just stick to him.

I'll give credit to Olsson for stopping any crosses coming in when he was against Navas, but that's not my criticism of him.
