He played 13 times from first 15 games that season and we won 9, drew 2 and lost 2. That was basically his longest and most consistent run in the team during his time here the outcome was that we were a proper competitive team.
When he got injured after Xmas, our season fell away.
So my point was that was if people think Keane is rubbish and Coleman hasn't performed for 3 seasons, whilst Digne was always better going forward than defending, the rock in that defence was Mina and that was also proven st the end of this and last season. Shame about his wicker shins..
The praise comes from giving his all to keep us up even though he clearly knew he was leaving...
