2025/26 Michael Keane

[IrishBlue2022]

Definitely a sign how happy Leeds were for him and Tarkowski to have the ball. Both are far too limited in possession for a top 10 side. Then of course the two centre mids in front of them were equally as bad on the ball. Obvious why we had no control of the game.

Thats why they play for us.

He didn’t do anything outrageous last night and wasn’t the reason we lost but he is just rubbish.

The amount of time he dives in, doesn’t get the ball and leaves a huge gap behind him is unbelievable for such an experienced player.

 

[ElGato]

He made less mistakes than Tarkowski

I'm not sure he did, but Tarkowski was also culpable as well. Just cos Tarkowski was also off it doesn't mean Keane is absolved from blame either.

Tarkowski also looks rash and error prone when paired alongside Keane. Then he's paired with Branthwaite and suddenly looks great.

Defence always looks ropier when he plays even if he manages not to make any big mistakes

I’d argue playing a CB at RB with no RW and a right footed CM at LB, with a midfield that for the first half just got ran through time and time again were the main reasons the defence looked ropey yesterday.

Of course Keane is crap but last night he wasn't the reason why we were atrocious.

The whole balance of the CB partnership is wrong. Any 3 of them look ok when paired with Branthwaite and rubbish when paired together.

We need a ball playing CB who can step in for Branthwaite and perhaps offer cover at LB.

1. He was one of them, though.
2. I agree.

Had it been Michael Keane who gave the penalty away yesterday, he would be getting absolutely slaughtered on here. The two-tier support on this forum is disgraceful; you should all hang your heads in shame.

Which is why the re-signing of Keane made no sense.

No real argument from me on that one.

 

[itsnowak]

Some will still find a way to say he had a bad game too

Well done keggers

 

[Nymzee]

Well done son. Didn’t make the game about you.

 

[Noisy noise annoys]

Do we like him today?

 

[Marius57]

Thrown away our first 3 games by keeping him

 

[Walken]

Fine today, that level of experience as back up is hard to come by

 

[GoldenToffee]

Should be two for two on clean sheets if everything was correct.
