2018/19 Michael Keane

[Rugby Toffee]

He isn't that good is he?

 

[billyblue80]

Can't believe how bad he is

The problem with Keane is its all well and good selling him but the problem you’ve got is you’ve also got jags and Williams who also need replacing and then your trying to find three central defenders. Jags isn’t going to fetch any money. Williams very little. And it’s likely Keane won’t fetch his initial outlay. Therefore you’ve got very little money to go out and buy three top replacements, and also very little time to do it. For that reason I think he will stay.

The comparisons with Alcaraz are fair and that's horrific.

I think he’s worse.

At least he did something well. He had this weird knack of always winning headers. @LinekersLegs will back me on that.

Occasionally into our own net (!) but yes, pretty good at headers. Also Alcaraz had no transfer fee and was clearly signed both to be a back up and to encourage the other defenders to adopt Martinez's preferred style of playing out from the back - Kieane was signed for a high fee and as a first choice and now quite sure what style he is meant to add!

Still maintain he's our worst ever signing, we'd be very lucky to get a 3rd of our money back on him. And he only had ONE year yr left on his Burnley contract! Amazing

He really is that bad isn't he.

At least Per Koldrup had the decency to hold his hands up after one game,

OK. Tell us why Keane is better than Holgate, bearing in mind that Silva is likely to prefer a style of football that employs a high line.

Why has he not played Holgate yet?

Why has he not played Holgate yet?

Been injured

 

[JJK]

Every time he’s on the pitch, it looks like the first game he’s ever played, he hasn’t got a clue how to do anything, tackle, mark, positional sense, interceptions, passing, everything is atrocious. Think he found his level in Austria.

 

[Jreverton1]

Been injured

Well that makes sense haha

 

[ToffeeTim]

Remember his agent saying he was going to become the best defender in europe hahahahahaha lol

 

[orly]

I think he’s worse.

Yes

 

[sageyefc]

Get rid

 

[Azza]

He actually looks scared of defending.
