You clearly werent around when we signed Coleman for 60k from Ireland.
Its a punt mate, if he becomes a player great, if he doesnt, nobody will care, we have probably spent a packet of chewys on the boy.

Squad player at beat for now i guess. Maybe to replace Vlasic / Lookman.

I can tell you as I was in the Lower Gwladys immediately behind the goal as it happened and was just pointing out Keane’s positioning as the ball went wide to my mate (specifically, his body position).
He was completely square on facing the ball rather than opening his body out and being aware of what was behind him.
By the time he’d turned around, the ball was in the net.
If he had the correct body position, he may have even recovered to the goal line and blocked it.
Worst thing was, it happened several times. Keane really is one of the worst central defenders I’ve ever seen in a blue shirt.
All the attributes needed for the position: positioning, awareness, strength, tackling, speed. Players facing him up in a 1v1 just glide past him. And to think of the sum of money we paid. I just can’t see what the scouts / Walsh / Koeman saw in him.
Brands job is to sort out the absolute ruinous mess made of our squad post-Moyes.
It is a huge task, we've got about £400m of wage commitments for players nowhere near the quality we need, and with little to no resale value.

Anyone who still thinks we should keep Lookman can suck my sock

Hopefully we can keep up the trend of bringing in players who care. The last 4 signings all seem to have that. Maybe too early to tell with Digne but the others are definitely players who want to win

Well he has done well so far but if he goes and gets a reject from 30 miles down in Rojo i will wonder what he has been doing so far, especially when you take into account out of the 2 buys we have made so far one the manger bought with him from his old club, meaning Digne is the only find in a window that was vital to sort out a few spots in the side

Someone’s a tosh spouting whinger today. And everyday.
Apart from football matches, like.
Well as far as I can see we have - apart from half a dozen or so - a very moderate squad with quite a few new faces needed.
These players are very much fringe players: Beni Baningeme, Tyias Browning, Harry Charsley, Callum Connolly, Morgan Feeney, Brendan Galloway, Mateusz Hewelt, Matthew Pennington
These have been told to go and find a new club: Cuco Martina, Kevin Mirallas, Nikola Vlasic
These are already out on loan: Luke Garbutt, Henry Onyekuru, Ashley Williams
Now the remaining players:
Serious Fitness questions: Muhamed Besic, Yannick Bolasie, James McCarthy
Some suitability issues: (basically age): Leighton Baines, Phil Jagielka
Are they anywhere near good enough?: Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Tom Davies, Kieran Dowell, Jonjoe Kenny, Sandro Ramirez, Mason Holgate, Oumar Niasse, Maarten Stekelenburg, Michael Keane
Desire to be at the club issues: Ademola Lookman, Morgan Schneiderlin
The ones worth standing by: Seamus Coleman. Lucas Digne, Idrissa Gana Gueye, Jordan Pickford, Richarlison, Gylfi Sigurdsson, Cenk Tosun, Theo Walcott
Now I don't know how you dress this up but for me 8/38 ain't good enough...
