2025/26 Michael Keane

Got to be honest if Branthwaite gets fit soon i think it’s Tarks getting dropped not Keggers. Moyes has changed him.

Sounds like he is playing well but is quite the view

He said you did well today but he wants your toxicity out of our fanbase as soon as possible.

You ok mate?

You seem to like the button don’t you?

Thought you were feeling happy?

Fair play, there’s going to be head in hands moment. But right thing to give him new contract going off last 2 performances. Got his limitations, but was always more a mental “thing” with him I/ most felt. Hopefully with age, not playing at goodison (god knows why but his worse games always seemed to happen there) he will get form back that got him England call ups. Looked better than tarks both games.

We had same situation at the beginning of last season, when leaked goals for fun. Branths was injured.

I felt like Keane was the better of the two back then individually, but do you give up a duo that worked pretty well for 2 seasons?

But yeah, we conceded 2 goals in his last 4 games over 90 mins, definitely an improvement visible, if he continues that he is a very solid back up option that always is good to score a goal himself.

Thought he played really well today if I'm honest.

 

[SJB]

Solid and dependable, he's thriving under Moyes.

 

[Cels]

Michael Keane had a decent game today, and it looks like he's gained a lot of his confidence back playing under David Moyes.

[Benno]

The diags today were a thing of beauty. The rest of the game you didn’t know he was there. Well played Keano.

 

[dublinbluenose]

Was very comfortable today, think he is fine when he isn't physically outmatched.

Perhaps its time to just give the fella some love? He's been a jittery bag of nerves at times over the years, but massive credit to him, he digs in and comes back with some big performances. The rest of the squad seem to really like him, and whatever we've thought of him in the past Moyes seems to have instilled confidence in him.
It takes a huge amount of character to overcome being the whipping boy, especially in a league that's scrutinised to the n'th degree. I'm not suggesting he should be one of our go-to centre back pairing, but as cover he's shown his worth. Up to Jarrad to take the starting berth off him now.
Well done big Mick Kegger.

 

[Blast_of_Cannock]

He's due one of his blammoes, hopefully gets the winner next week.

The irony of them suggesting someone else is toxic after their posting history did make me laugh to be fair.

 

[Flynnthistle]

If he had made the mistakes Tarkowski had, I dread to think what his thread would've looked like. He's a very, very good centre half, excellent on the ball, quick, tall, excellent reader of the game. If he was a new signing people would be ecstatic.

Yeah, I had a chuckle at the insanity of that comment.

Broke his thumb on the middle finger button today like!
