Relax, took Stones time to settle down.
We need a manager that can develop players and give him confidence, not something fat sam is known for.


Not much reason to relax then, if we are to persevere with him until the summer of 2019 before the manager we need to develop him and give him confidence arrives :blush:
 
Lost and indecisive. When he's decisive, he's effective though. I still have SOME hope.
Exactly, when hes decisive hes really good. He was actually very good at the start of this season, so the talent is there. He wins so many headers and hes definitely our best CB on the ball, hes just out of position too often. But being out of position can be fixed, and I honestly think a pairing of him and Holgate is ideal. Holgate has that extra speed Keane lacks, and can cover better while Keane pushes up to break up passes, where his strength is.
 
Unfortunately we’ve got worse since he came back in the side.

Such high hopes for him at the start of the season, especially when he chipped in with the goal against split too.

Burnley have been even better this season without him
 

I have never seen a defender so scared to make a tackle in my life....any time a forward player runs at him with the ball he freezes and looks like a rabbit in head lights. He gets caught completely on his heels and just watches gormlessly as the forward skips round him with ease.

His only positive attribute that I can see is he can head a ball which is funny cause you normally have to be fairly brace to do that in most situations, pity he doesn't show that same 'bravery' in any other aspect of his game :(

This lad gives me no confidence whatsoever when he plays and we can't afford for him to find a back bone at the moment....drop him from the team until we are safe points wise and then re-evaluate in the summer.

But I already think his career at Everton should be done!

Ps his pants
 
the main flaw in Keane is his tendency to dive in, regardless of who he is playing against.

When he wins it, fine, but the majority of the time he doesn't and gets turned away from far too easily.

There's definitely a player there but at the moment he simply isn't good enough to warrant a starting place, and now the games are easing up a bit, should be back to third choice.
 

Maybe Mee was the better defender and we should've gone for him, or even both of them?
Burnley fans said this in the first place.

People kept saying Keane wins all the headers too. I disagree he's well off!

On a side note to that he should have buried a header against Chelsea and possibly done better with one against United yesterday too.
