2025/26 Michael Keane

[Sheedy's right peg]

Been superb again. He’s having some season in fairness to him. Somehow looks very comfortable on the left of the two.

Tarkowski has been terrible again. He looks a yard or two slower and he’s not getting to the pace of the ball when he goes charging out - leaving big holes even in the box.

Play Tarkowski up front

 

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

Fantastic. Just fantastic tonight.

 

[Rehnman]

Credit where it’s due, if Branth had delivered that performance today, we’d be raving about it - Keane is doing great.

 

[jonnyg]

Thought he was lucky with the handball shout. That gets given against the sky 6.

Yep and Tarks plays like a lump again and gives them a goal with his slow reactions. However we should drop Keane because of a Derby 100 years ago

 

[MACCA75]

Very good. Did he need to just dance around the ball for their goal though?

Well it’s interesting isn’t it because if Branth was fully fit now, we’d surely have to play him and Keane?

 

[TrixyStevens]

Thought he was especially brilliant first half.

I agree, but Keane will never be good enough for many even though he is better than Tarks.

 

[PhilEFC]

Kept us in it tonight.

Arguably been our best defender this season. Tarky all over the shop, JoB looking shaky at times, and Myko being injured for a spell. Him or Garner who was great as a fill in left back.

Easily. Arguably our most consistent player across the whole team, which says more about the rest of them.

Was reassuring tonight when the ball was coming towards our box and you noticed it was Keane going to win it. No wrestling, or anything stupid, just quite unflustered defending really. The rest of them are miles off last years solidity.

 

[NathDogg]

No offence to him or anyone backing him, but you know you’re goosed when he’s your best defender.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Could have given away two penalties for handball but sure let’s say he had a brilliant game. At one point he was literally spinning around looking for the ball as he’d actually lost it.

 

[SJB]

No offence to him or any posters, but you know you’re goosed when he’s your best defender and you still target him with your criticism.
