2018/19 Michael Keane

[CRIMHEAD]

Look at Koulibaly or Upamecano or even Diop (who i wanted) at West Ham...

They have it all...

I really rate Augustin at Leipzig but if Lookman was involved in a deal to go there id be ecstatic if we went for Upamecano...he or someone similar would be ideal next to Mina.

I wouldn't put Diop anywhere near those two.

For a 19 year old, Konate looked really promising this past week. getting him on a free was a coup.

I really like Diop, west ham got him for a song.

Konate + Upamecano its amazing how Leipzig got those two in for peanuts...hope brands can do the same for us.

 

[Eggsyblueskin]

He is nowhere near as bad as I thought he was last season, but I don’t think he is destined to become anything other than a functional CB.

They both came from the second division so it’s not surprising they were cheap more hats off to scouting and taking risks.

Possibly true. If we are being honest, we are a millions miles away from the defence we had under Moyes. Gone are the days you'd back us to turn out clean sheets and be hard to break down.

True, but also gone are the days where played 4-5-0 and were happy to grind out a nil nil at Stoke.

Hopefully we'll find that balance me before the end of the season.

You know back then it was a case of needs must with injuries and a small squad of players. You watch on Boxing Day, we might be happy to grind out a point.

And obviously I meant 4-6-0.

Stupid hangover.

 

[AndyC]

Some keep calling for Keane to be dropped...
Thought he was very solid today at the heart of the back three, well done Michael

 

[mkrudden]

He's very good on the ball, I think. Quite a few times he was on his left foot but rather than boot it he played through the lines.

I really like him.

 

[Milkman]

He's having a fantastic season.

Some bad bad people want him to go rubbish again. I can only think it's probably because they hate themselves.

 

[Nymzee]

Decent today.

 

[lungo]

Decent today.

Very lucky today. Beginning of second half. Ball watching like allways. The guy doesnt cut it and never will!

 

[Rugby Toffee]

Don't think he deserves the amount of stick he gets tbh. Not top class admittedly, but he isn't as bad as some would like to make out.

Alright then mate

 

[ijjysmith]

Any good today?
