2017/18 Michael Keane

[kithnou]

Funes Mori is our best center back, if everyone can just let that sink in for a second

And our 2nd best striker to boot.
Sink that one in.

The crazy thing is, didn't he passed the league in most stats(or at least up there) with challenges, aerial duels won and headers? This was the most obvious signing we could have made and we did.

I feel like I'm playing FM, signing boss players and I'm exactly where we are now absolutely lost as to why they weren't performing.

Keane has been terrible recently, put to be fair Jagielka sold him up the river for Southampton's first goal yesterday. Jags was in complete no-man's land as the ball was fed into Tadic.

 

[Arteta2391]

Overrated

Williams is hot headed

Jagielka is paceless

Funes is made of glass

Sigh

 

[MikeH72]

You say that like it's an insult. But the reality is, he is decent, and he is most definitely better than what we have, but he still gets dogs abuse because of who signed him.

No mate, he is genuinely not very good at all, however due to the absolute state of our recruitment "strategy" he probably has ended up as our best centre back.

Would of thought the older spineless defenders would say play in your favoured right hand side of defence Michael, but they’re obviously looking out for themselves

Actually think he doesnt know how to read the game - which from a defender is just a tad worrying.

That’s the concern, I’ve seen him mistime headers where he just gets underneath it, he rushes to close down at random times and his awareness of what’s around him is truly shocking

I honestly think we have signed his larger twin brother... there is no way this is the same defender that was so highly rated last season..

I know the rest of the defence has been terrible but as he was seen as the Long term replacement for Jags, he has a lot of work to get done.

I never really rated him at Burnley, always said Mee was the better defender. Keane looks massively short of pace, especially over the short bursts which a young Jags had. It’s like he’s running through sand.

I wouldn’t have any complaints if he was sold in all honesty, even at a loss.

Maybe the moment he was spun like a top by Lukaku at Goodison was the truer reflection of his weaknesses mate

Probably, but I thought there was still a player in there - not many people in the prem have the physical ability Rom does...

Until I seen Keane getting raped on multiple occasions this season.

His reading of the game is absolutely atrocious.

 

[Berenger]

Amazed how many people think he’s only playing crap because Williams is next to him.

If those crosses were going over Bobby Moore’s head instead of Williams, then Keane is still going to let Charlie Austin have two free headers.

Who said it's just Williams? It's the whole team.

 

[Nyhus]

Hadnt seen a lot of him before signing, but based on the reactions on here I would have thought him a lot better.

Williams & Jagielka at the back Wednesday, we're doomed !!
