2020/21 Michael Keane

Looking good

I think it’s helped that ancelotti played a way which didn’t require Keane to be fast.

Silva’s football meant he got left 1 on 1 high up the pitch and got burned.

Him alongside a top ball playing defender would be nice.

Good? I would go as far as saying he's so far this season one of the best center backs in the league. He seems to of introduced a great attacking presence to his game too.

The ball to DCL needs to be spoke about more.

 

[Mark barnett]

becoming very reliable think having no fans is bennifitting him hugely.

Top Mark's from me thus far

 

[Carlito]

One thing you could always say for him is that he plays with his head up.

His passing, much like Calvert-Lewin's finishing, suggests that this is a team playing with genuine confidence at the moment.

Shame that the momentum is going to be disrupted by an international break.

 

[ilikecheese]

Happy to eat crow on this one. I have never rated Keane mostly based on his inability to cope with more athletic strikers he used to struggle against.

@Eggs, what are your thoughts on this specific improvement that both of us feared would always be a problem?

It was a Rodriguez like ball.

Mason Holgate says hello, mate

Looked very comfortable against West Ham Utd, which was really nice to see, and his turn and pass for our first goal were brilliant. Just shows what a couple of decent players in front of you, and a few wins, can do for your confidence.

Not to mention the Zidane turn he pulled off moments before - a man possessed!

 

[Bob Elstone]

Lot of people should hold their hands up and admit they were wrong with Keane.
Been superb since Carlo took over.

I know, I remember being impressed by that in the moment and then forgot it happened because we then scored.

I watched a blurry replay later and forgot who made the pass, thought it was James. What a move. He singlehandedly took the ball from being under dangerous pressure in defence to ready to score in the other box in seconds

James-esque
