2019/20 Michael Keane

[Paulie]

I burst out laughing at that pass. Absolute madness how he got it so wrong. But, yeah, played well in the end, tracked runs, couple of good blocks.

One on one in the box I think he's pretty decent, if I he had pace he'd probably be quite good.

I kept wondering whats the point of passing the ball around our back line and to Keane. We know he is not comfortable with the ball.

Either he pumps up the ball to nowhere or to sibide all afternoon. Why are our midfielders not asking for the ball?

A few times Carlo was throwing his hands in the air shaking his head when the ball was getting passed back like this, its something he really needs to coach out of them.
I think he can do it, but also think it will be with summer signings

 

[Zatara]

He seemed to think he was Lothar Matthaus a couple of times... actually charging into midfield to compete for balls and then wandering back.

Frightening.

We got lucky that Glen Murray put that chance wide at the end of the game. Keane for some reason challenged for the ball in midfield and then never had the legs to get back. He's 27 and makes the kind of mistakes normally reserved for young up and coming defenders.

Some beautiful ball watching by every one of those players

After that pass he smashed 274mph and 34 metres high at Sidibe I thought "here we go" . He settled down and played well to be fair to him.

I can’t stand him but even I have to admit he did pretty well

One of his better games of the season but still went walkies a couple of times that luckily didn’t cost us in the end, basically sums him up, even when he has a steady game he’s got mistakes in him. Hopefully replaced in the summer

Remember how often we did that with Howard? Everyone on the planet knew he hated getting the ball to his feet, but time after time our gormless defenders passed it back to him?

Kid thinks he’s Baresi.

Honestly, I look at that and think “why is Keane there”? Then I look at Davies, Delph and Sigg all off to one side NOT trying to tackle the man and wonder if we are blaming the wrong lad?

 

[Sheedy's right knee.]

He should have scored that header that DCL bundled in the net to be fair. It was harder to miss.

I noticed that on motd he's just rubbish imo very slow to react at times also

 

[Blueclouds]

Hopefully we can sell him this summer for his own good. His mentality is too weak for the goodison crowd.
