2024/25 Michael Vincent Keane

I'm so pleased to hear this new approach
Too long we've been paying top 6 wages to bottom six players

And we usually reward crap play with increased wages too. Seems like we're actually doing things how it should be done by a club with a focus.

Feels good too doesn't it?
I also trust Moyes to bring in strong characters this window.
Positive times

Expecting him to roll out all the classics on his last dance.
A composed finish at one end. A bemused handball at the other. Isak waltzing past him like fresh air.

I could see that in the case of Young or Doucoure whoave been announced already by them first, but this close to a game I think it would be foolish on behalf of the manager, the player and the fans to announce anything.

But like I say, the players will already know, so what difference will it make? It’s also a game that means absolutely nothing for us.

I think not hearing anything about Keane yet suggests he’s staying because I’d be surprised - and disappointed by the club - if they don’t let him get a decent reception for his last game after 8 years service. DCL and gana are a bit different because they might genuinely not have made their decision yet.

Not heard anything about Broja but evidence suggests he’s off! Keane likely offered a year/two year deal on reduced wages and told your 4th choice…hardly a win win for him

You wouldn’t really expect to hear about a loan player though. Depends for Keane really, it wouldn’t be a massive shock for a 32/33 year old with 400 games in his legs to be quite happy to act as cover at the end of their career.

Was Keane playing that time Isak scored against us last season (or the previous season, can't remember). When he had the ball by the corner flag, and proceeded to stroll past our whole defence as if they were traffic cones, and slotted it into the corner?

Should have known

 

[D410]

If Keane is offered an extension then I am sorry it will be a terrible decision. I d rather see that slot opened to a young development player.

Bit rude that

 

[Zatara]

It makes no sense to offer him an extension unless its as a short term stop gap to use funds elsewhere e.g 1 year.

1 year as 4th choice wouldnt make me furious...disappointed and annoyed yes.

 

[No Alla Violenza]

Surely there have to be better options out there for a similar cost to offering him any sort of contract extension?

No!

 

[Cels]

Michael Keane ticks all the boxes; Ex-England International, loads of Premier League experience, and chips in with goals from time to time. Give the lad an eighteen-month deal, Moysie.
