Yer I get this, I think he's better than both coady and dier but they are more versatile and think Keane is too similar to Maguire, probably wanted different options.
I think the real shocker is no Godfrey over some of these players
...and mobility is key. At that level forwards tend to be sharp and clever & I’ve seen Keane get regularly spun. I actually rate Maguire as being superior but I can’t have Dier at all. Stones is having a great season.
I totally agree about Godfrey & backed him to get into the squad but that’s only a matter of time.
