2024/25 Michael Vincent Keane

[windymiller]

He was our worst player until young got sent off

Numerous times he gave the ball away and allowed brighton to counter attack us

His defending was atrocious today

I’ll be suprised if he plays against spurs

Will you, though?

Will you, though?

Yeah he was a calamity today

The experience was non existent

O Brien in for spurs

No idea who plays right back though

Keane.

 

[NathDogg]

I thought all of the back 4 were really poor

They were.

Fourth best defence in the league last season. Take out Branthwaite and look what happens...

That’s the magic of Keane - he makes the entire defence worse just being in it, because the rest are all terrified about what he’s up to, even Tarks.

It'll be Keane at CB and Holgate at RB. We'll get pummeled.

 

[Clarky cat]

He just brings down the game of anyone else that he plays with. One of the worst games I’ve seen Tarkowski have for the club.

So bad that you’ve staggered into the Michael Keane thread with your pants around your ankles in a disgusting and confused mess?

 

[Clarky cat]

Not the reason we lost today.

 

[Osamabindiesel]

Keane has an excellent diagonal on him. That is not a good reason to start him at center back. We do not have players that will take advantage of it nor is it worth investing more time in him. Just wasted valuable minutes that could have gone to Obrien. The guy we signed for 20 mil

 

[Bkk Andy]

Tarks has an absolute stinker but it's someone else's fault.

 

[supertoffee98]

Probably one of the few blues who'll actually say this but we do get glimpses of a decent player in Michael Keane and the lad loves Everton unlike some current players. He wasn't why we lost today.

Worth repeating that without Keane we'd be in the Championship now.

'Without Keane, Holgate, DCL and Doucoure we would be in championship now'
Give them another contracts then.
Such a small club mentality.

Never said it should be a reason for a new contract, but if Keane has a good few weeks while O'Brien is phased in, maybe score or assist, who knows

Do we have better back up options in the U21s?

He is bunk mate and if he makes a mistake his head goes yes he has had decent games for us in his time but he is way past the point where he should be starting games. This is the third time Dyche has continued with him despite better options that he is then forced to bring in because Keane is a liability see when he ended up bringing Mina in the and of Dyche's first season or Branthwaite last season, its madness he puts the entire back four on edge.

It’s not worth repeating, because it’s not true.

I generally agree, he loves Everton no doubt and can never fault his commitment. Just think his time at the club is up. You’d think he’d be 4th choice centre back if he stays, which I’d be fine with but worryingly that’s not where Dyche seems to see him in the pecking order.
