2025/26 Michael Vincent Keane

I’m not a Keane fan but I recognise he’s been terrific in the main this season.
It's an illusion. He wins loads of headers and that has convinced half the fanbase he has played well. You need to look at where he runs, how slow he turns, his decision making, the utter panic that emenates from him.

Just posted this on another forum, but a bad driver will see loads of accidents in his rear view mirror and think 'Wow, they are bad drivers'.

The poster you replied to i have on ignore but you'll notice that 99% of their posts are ass licking Moyes OR worshiping his decisions by praising poor players he picks or claiming Moyes is infallible.

Your post is spot on.

That poster loved Doucoure but hated KDH & Grealish.

The moment KDH was used as a 10 they were claiming that he was amazing & that anyone saying he was an 8 was wrong.

KDH said himself hes an 8 and was amazing in the games there for us.

We'll sadly have posters whose lack of knowledge is only weighed by their love-in of Moyes. This is one of those times.

Keane should have been and shouldnt be anywhere close to the pitch.

It's weird how there's a different set of standards for players under Moyes (although in different positions) if you're Keane you can be at fault for numerous goals and your position until Branthwaite is fit is completely secure, if you're Charly Alcarez and you misplace a pass you're exiled to the bench until absences allow you another opportunity.

100% if youre Dibling and isolated 30 yards from anyone youre hooked at half time. If youre Grealish playing the same way for 3 games in a row even with several players in support you're praised.

Its brainwashing "Moyes can do no wrong".

We even have people claiming Moyes may go hack fo United & that their next door neighbour is Harrison Armstrong.

Some proper weirdos around.

Its a bit like the Coleman thread. Awful really.
 
He had some the solid matches this season some serviceable ones and several that indicative of his woes on the pitch in past seasons, he was okay as an initial stop gap but we're six months in the season and his limited attributes and easily rattled mentality are starting to negatively affect us. His imitations clearly impact Tarkowski as well , where Tarks looks so much better when playing alongside Jake. It also doesn't help Keane when Moyes puts him in when he is still recovering from injury lol
 
Shouldn’t even be on the bench in January 2026 however there is a 60% chance (minimum) he starts tonight. Assuming Patterson’s cramp issue is clear he must start and O’Brien reverts to his CB role (which he excels at) alongside Tarkowski and in the absence of JB. If Patterson is not fit, then Garner to RB and Harrison starts.

The confidence drain that Keane brings to this collective of players cannot be underestimated.

Not selecting Keane in the starting 11 is the most important decision Moyes must make today.

Keane is a Moyes favourite . I have no doubt he will be given a contract extension in the summer. :(
 
Have we ever had any manager who outright said he doesn't rate him and doesn't want to work with him? Weird stuff, the guy somehow makes every manager fall in love with him
