Glad he at least got a fair shot with respect to play time. His first touch is still bullish and he's still apprehensive and under-confident, but hopefully he'll get some good guidance and his confidence will build.

Gave a good account of himself today and showed confidence to take on players and try the odd shot here and there. Thought Kean was going to score when he was through on the Newcastle goal, but to be fair it was a decent block to keep him out.
He’s still a teenager who doesn’t speak the language. Let’s not write him off after a few months. He was highly rated in Italy, given time he’ll come good.
Look at how long it’s taken DCL to get to grips with things and he’s 3 years older. Take that for perspective.

He wasn’t great today but he’s played in a winning side and we as a team
Are gaining confidence. That’s the environment that will help kean and take the pressure off a bit with other people scoring. I’ve been his worst critic but no doubt kean will have learnt a lot from today and feel a lot better about himself. Small steps....

Posted on Instagram and the other players are clearly getting along with him and supporting him.
Seems to be settling.

Those floodgates just need prising open
Desperately unlucky not to score today, with that fine turn and touch, ball hit the goalkeeper full in the face.
I would definitely persevere with that front three.

He’s very, very lucky that fans decided early on to be on his side. When a performance like today is being used as evidence of how good you are, it’s not a good sign. He definitely has ability and he can go on to be a great signing, but let’s be honest about what we’re seeing. Today was, at best, adequate. He really needs to step up At some point.

There were a few through balls attempted to him that juuuuuust missed coming off, one of those hits him in stride and he scores today.
It will come.
