2025/26 Michael Vincent Keane

Yeah not a chance that's a pen, you can't be giving those unless its a shot on target. Actually thought the ref was decent and allowed it to be a good psychical game.

Just felt he went too far the other way , despite being on the wrong end of a few I like a physical game but he just ended up a little bit on the wrong side of the line .

Definately felt that at the time (matchrage), but in hindsight I do prefer to see this style of reffing even if its not perfect.

Mad how we still concede multiple goals a game when he starts, like we always have, yet people are still desperate to try and paint him as some kind of PL standard defender.

He isn’t. He never will be.

Bored of it mate, he’s done better this season than his previous, but people are going on like he’s the second coming of Paulo Maldini.

Great.
Superb.
Knocking on the door of the England squad.

Do me a favour.

Agreed mate, he has been our best defender this season due to Tarkowski being abysmal this season, O'Brien constantly being played out of position and Mykolenko being well......Mykolenko !!

Being our best defender this season is like being the tallest pygmy in the tribe.

Well at least most have stopped blaming their failures on Keane.

He's playing well, above expectation. We should be glad he signed that contract.

It was a penalty, there's nothing natural about Mr Tickle's flappy arms. If it were the other way around, there'd be fume everywhere.

What really is an unnatural position ?

It is a stupid nonsensical way of looking at something from a group of people that have never played a game of football.

Moving your arm towards a ball, yes. Being off balance, legs in the air. Your arms NATURALLY swing.

go and run in your garden and quickly turn around and see what happens to your arms..

The letter of the law, that could be given. The individuals that created that law, need to be removed for lack of common sense..

We are lucky Beto is not a defender, he does not seem to have any control of his limbs

Some fools on here blame him for Tarkys mistakes.

Weird how people seem to want to pit him and Tarkowski against each other like it’s some sort of competition. They’re a partnership, and a terrible one. Both are culpable for the fact we can’t keep a clean sheet to save our lives.

 

[Carlito]

He was superb again last night. Call a spade a spade.

Apart from when he had to abandon the safety of his starting position in the build-up to their goal, and immediately started looking like he'd woke up in someone else's body.

Most weren't treating it as a partnership before, most of the blame was assigned to Keane (and most rightfully so). Tarkowski has been bad, and it has nothing to do with Keane.

We need two new centre backs and that includes binning Keane off.

Sure, they're both old and slow. This "partnership" thing is just more cover for Tarkowski's abysmal play however.

I've invested so much time and effort hating Keane on here, I can't bring myself to give him any credit for a solid start to the season.

Can't wait for him to make a few mistakes (that lead to goals) so I can tell everyone I was right.

Anyone else feel the same?
