Robin Olsen arrived at Goodison with the task of challenging Pickford for the starter’s role. The Swede himself comes with the tag of being error prone. After a long wait, Olsen finally got a chance to wear the Everton jersey against Newcastle where, despite conceding two goals, he was one of the most impressive players on the pitch in a dull game.
With just one game played, there isn’t much to evaluate but that one game showed us a glimpse that Olsen is capable of keeping Pickford on his toes and even fill in for him if required.

Joao Virginia also played a solitary game which was the EFL Cup tie against Salford where he kept a clean sheet. The 20 year old didn’t have much to do but has shown tremendous potential.
