2025/26 Michael Vincent Keane

[DOMNOLAN]

As much as I dislike Keane, not his fault. Don’t know what was said, but will defend him completely on this one.

 

[Evertonthat]

would love to be a fly on the wall in the dressing room this half time....

Bit of victim blaming going on here, nice one. Nobody deserves to be slapped by a team mate like that. Shambles.

It was a baby slap getting a point across. Talking like it was GBH. Its a mans game and arguments happen.

 

[Dyo1878]

That’s built up frustration over many years of watching one of your team mates consistently cost you games/goals.

Done his usual statue performance staring at the ball.

Usually it’s saved for the training ground but Gana clearly lost it at what was almost another calamity by Keane.

Can’t excuse Gana for it, but Keane played his part.

 

[EGWToffee]

Keane was asleep I don’t blame Gana for having a go. It was handbags regardless. Silly red card.

 

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

It was a baby slap getting a point across. Talking like it was GBH. Its a mans game and arguments happen.

And red cards deservedly happen. Game's changed, for better or worse. You can't act like that.

 

[Nymzee]

Did he butt him before the slap?

 

[Saint Domingo]

Wouldn’t have happened if this dosy carthorse hadn’t gone to sleep in the box as usual.

 

[MACCA75]

I mean you can blame him, for totally leaving the ball in our area. Been great before and after that mind.

He does some weird stuff. Jogging past the ball just prior to Sunderland scored too.

 

[MaximusEvertonius]

I like Gana and Keane. This is all on Gana. Players jaw at each other all the time for bonehead mistakes. Hell, Pickford yells at the fullbacks all the time. You just have to take the crap, listen it out, and be a professional. Do that and it sorts itself out. Slap your teammate and you screw your team. At this age in life, both players should be well in control of their adult emotions.

 

[Bluewolf]

He pushed Gana first and would have carried on the fight had Pickford not come and got in the way.

Beyond sick of this guy. Awful player who has accrued a fan base this season for a reason I can't grasp.

Ridiculous positioning immediately before the incident, Gana rightly giving him a bollocking. Obvious to me that having him in the backline makes the rest of the team generally uncomfortable.

Comfortably bee our best cb this season.

Definitely had a brain fart before the sending off. But gana getting in his face was rediculous. Gana was completely the aggressor in the incident and a absolute idiot for throwing a slap.

Keane is literally telling gana to calm down and gana puts his face into keane's so he pushes him away.

You obviously dont like keane tbh im not his biggest fan but lets not make stuff up

 

[NeilMorepies]

I’d happily give Airwolf a slap

 

[banno]

As much as I dislike Keane, not his fault. Don’t know what was said, but will defend him completely on this one.

When Gana layed the perfect ball off for Keane I was already screaming at Keane for just standing watching. I would have had a few choice words with Keane myself. Keane should have accepted he wasn't alert and apologised instead of getting into a shoving match

 

[ChesterBlue]

To me it looked like Keane was trying to calm it down, absurd to blame him for that

As much as I dislike Keane, not his fault. Don’t know what was said, but will defend him completely on this one.

Exactly. As I said in the match thread, Pickford yells at his FBs no less than 10 times a match. He hasn’t been slapped in the face. Poor decision by Gana.
