...based on watching him for us, I’m not even sure he’s a good finisher. He was ineffective for us, you would expect him to have basic back-to-goal technique and join-in play but I’m not sure he offered much to the team effort.
He’s certainly no Lineker.
...Linekers goals invariably finish inside the post (just like Ian Rush, Jimmy Greaves et al). He was bright as a button in the box, stealing in front of his markers to get on the end of crosses be it on the ground or in the air. When Lineker had a hint of a chance you were confident he’d score, that was never the case with Kean.
I guarantee CBs were scared stiff playing against Lineker. I guarantee CBs don’t lose sleep at the prospect of facing Kean. The one thing they have in common is wearing football kits.
Mate, check out his finishes for Juventus, Italy and now PSG...hes a natural finisher.
Kean on goal is pretty much lethal in every side and age group hes played in.
Apart from with us when we never used him in that way.
I'm hoping we manage to sell him in the summer. I think we should be looking to regain at least 20 million, but I hope we don't outprice him of a move by deluding ourselves into demands of 25 - 30 million +.
I think he's crap in the main. Like a worse version of Anichebe without the goals.
I dont even understand where this post has come from in your mind...
Why would we sell a player for less than we paid for him when hes banging in goals for one of the richest teams in the world?
If Kean is worse version of Anichebe then how would he even be at PSG in the first place? Or gotten through Juventus youth into the italian national team?
Reminds me alot of Vlasic this...played (rarely) out of position and shows flashes of talent before being loaned out. Only difference is that Kean is showing his talent on the world stage immediately while Vlasic was in eastern europe.
