Yes we are both miles apart in how we see Keane, but I’ve never disliked a player for the sake of disliking them, only for the poverty of their performances, yes let’s leave it ther.
Too much is being made of the "mistake" on Saturday. He slipped and was maybe a yard out of position because of the unusual direction change of the ball. That exact thing happens hundreds of times in football, it's very unfortunate to concede from it.

The mistake last week was awful, there's no escaping that, but he recovered and had a solid 2nd half.

The problem with all of this is Keane, when he is on form and not in his own head, is a very good centre half. But he has massive fluctuations in confidence and you have to hope it doesn't lead to further errors if his head drops.

Personally, I'd keep him in with Mina as they make the best partnership. Everyone goes on about Godfrey, but most of his best performances have come at left back, and starting him for his 1st game of the season after what we can assume is due to isolating away from the squad, to create our 3rd centre back partnership in as many games, is not what a team looking for stability should be doing.

If the individual mistakes came now and again and I wouldn’t worry about, but every mistake doesn’t lead to a goal and he makes far too many for me, too quiet, no aggression and he is always two or three seconds behind the play, if we can sell him then I think we will.

Don't get me wrong, I said months ago, I think on top form, he is a really good player, but I would've looked to sell him this summer when everyone else was saying to get rid of Holgate or Mina. His value isn't gonna get any higher, he is the oldest CB we have, and is English, which seems to be a premium. The mistakes are unfortunate, but every defender makes them. His just appear to affect him more, which is where the worry sets it, and playing for Everton, all of that is amplified.
 

Does anybody know whether there is any way to watch the 23s tonight? Apart from st the ground that is.
We need someone to show the game Live via their phone lol, as said it wont be on Tv due to the new tv deal stoping u23s been able to be put on Live at same time a prem game takes place-Its if/when Clubs can get that part of the TV deal sorted so they can show u23s Live
