2021/22 Michael Keane

[zaitken]

"Subbed for concussion" my arse. He was probably more relieved at being taken off than anyone else was. An absolute coward. Honestly one of the most gutless, spineless, weak, half-arsed CB's I've ever seen in an Everton shirt. His fragile mentality spreads through the rest of the squad like wildfire.

 

[RhylBlue]

I think he has to go down as one of our absolute worst ever centre-backs. Whenever he starts it feels like we are spotting the other team a free goal against us.

Lampard confirms Keane was taken off at half-time not due to concussion but due to feeling unwell.

"Michael has been unwell for some weeks and he put himself up for selection. We don't have options in that area of the pitch."

 

[MikeH72]

Please stop defending these clowns Frank. Throw them under the bus.

I thought he was playing well today…up until his inevitable mistake.

Cut and paste this until his contract expires

Disgraceful performance. Hope he is never picked again.

Then that’s on Michael, fair play for trying to gut it out but it’s costing us points

That’s on Lampard. You say you don’t have options but have Branthwaite on the bench who’s looked fine. You don’t play someone who’s unwell away from home in a relegation scrap don’t care if the player wants to play.

I mean how has he been unwell for “weeks”? I don’t think I’ve ever had an illness that’s lasted weeks, what the hell is up with him?

Could be mental, could be a virus he hasn’t shaken off or what not

What virus lingers around a professional athlete’s body for weeks?

 

[Everton1654]

Has any Premier league player ever had a worse season than him?

 

[Street end man]

So Keane's not fit and we play him, DCL's still not fit and we play him. Not making any sense at all to me when Branthwaite and Rondon are available.

I dunno Mike, just offering suggestions as to what Frank might be referring to

Only thing I can think of is if he had COVID but he’s played the majority of games iirc

He definitely hasn’t had Covid because he would’ve been isolating and not training and playing every single game.
