2018/19 Kurt Zouma

[Papa Shango]

why did michael keane get a fifa team of the week card this week when zouma scored?

The Garth Crooks method of rating a defensive performance.

 

[RomanReigns]

Because Keane had a good game?

No he didn’t

Zouma kept a clean sheet and scored

Keane didn’t even play well he miscontrolled an easy pass again and then tried to make up for it by hacking his opponent down and getting booked for a reckless tackle

Keane is a terrible defender

 

[MikeH72]

No he didn’t

Zouma kept a clean sheet and scored

Keane didn’t even play well he miscontrolled an easy pass again and then tried to make up for it by hacking his opponent down and getting booked for a reckless tackle

Keane is a terrible defender

Didn’t he make a goal saving tackle at 1-0 in stoppage time though?

 

[MikeH72]

He's very chummy with Pogba

Might make it hard to sign him if Man United decide they want him

Certainly meant something when Lukaku was umming and ahhing

What has led you to believe that Man Utd would want him?

He is so slow every tackle is a goal saving tackle for him

 

[MikeH72]

He is so slow every tackle is a goal saving tackle for him

If every tackle is a goal saving tackle doesn’t that make him like, the best defender in the world?

 

[EnglishRoundabout]

You quoted me from August mate. Things have moved on.

Yep apologies.

Nothing

But if Pogba decides he wants his mate Kurt around like he did Romelu...

 

[COYBL25]

lol

I like how you think United spent 75 million pounds on Lukaku because he's Pogba's mate

He doesn't really.

This country.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

If you don't think Pogba's relationship with Lukaku had any sway over him ending up at Man United, then you're being a bit naive to be honest

Clubs like to keep their star players happy. A big reason they dropped the guillotine on Mourinho was because he'd fallen out with Pogba

Obviously they're not going to sign a player like Zouma just because Pogba wants him, but if he mentions it to people around the club then that could get it on the drawing board and from there, who knows eh?

Keane is a terrible defender

He had a very good game before missing the pass, was more invloved the Kurt and made a goal saving tackle at the death. Take your hate specs off mate.

Pointing out the 1 mistake he made in a whole 90 of him being good and ignoring the goal saving tackle.

Therefore making him woeful.

The Grand Old Team way.

Also, to keep it relevant to the thread, I don't think Zouma is that good. He's just athletic which digs him out of a lot of holes. He'll do for now.
