Hope you can give the man some credit.
Don’t think he put a foot wrong today, and did lots right.

Dibling got the ball given to him with two
Players up his hoop almost every time.
The fact that he didn’t somehow turn, go past that traffic, and then run 50 yards to slot or provide, will, I fear, have some writing him off as shite etc.

He’s gonna be a great player for us

We are better with a pacy centre back rather than him and Tarkowski

We have to play so deep partly due to us not having a player up front who can hold the ball and a lack of pace throughout the central part of the team, even today in those last 30 minutes we pushed up much further (the score line being a factor) and we were much more comfortable

Both are very important squad members though and played well today

I’m pleased for Keane.

He has been consistently good this season.. maybe Moyes has spent quite a bit of time with him, I don’t know, but he looks a different player.

I had written him off but gladly being proved wrong and long may it continue. He had a similar streak under Ancelotti and looked brilliant at that time

In the second half, the ball came to him around the penalty spot, which he chested down and got a shot away. Until our penalty, that was the most composure any of our players had shown in their box.

By and large until this season I’ve found it hard not to despise Michael Keane, as much as one can despise a bloke who kicks a football not as I’d like him to and granted I’m sure it’s not been intentional on his part. I don’t know what’s happened to him but he has been spot on this season. I’m not 100% confident he won’t screw up at any time but fair do’s. He’s been great this season.

Anyone writing him off is a twat. He’s played a handful of minutes for us

Barry is feeling sorry for himself at the minute. Can see it in his body language on the pitch.

Somebody needs to tell him to just charge a defender down and block a challenge or leave a shoulder on one.

That in turn gets the crowd going and gives.him a lift etc etc.

At the minute he's just moping and looks way out of his depth.

Still plenty of time for him though. If we had a decent striker consistently playing well we could bed him in a lot better.

Beto seems better coming off the bench at the minute for some reason.

You are right in saying anyone writing him off already is being presumptive....but for balance, on what evidence are you also basing the "he's gonna be a great player for us" on ? Especially given that so far even the manager hasn't fancied him to play much.

Too early to call shouts on players can go both ways.

PS: I was always on the Keane bus, never been a major player for us but some of the stick he got in the past was way over the top....and he will get it again no doubt.

I know because I’m ace at all things footy.
Dibling will be ace. Merlin will fill Gueye’s shoes next season.

Our best player first half by a mile Keane.

Dibling will be fine, still looks in pre season mode.

It's us, not me. Fight inequality.

I would go as far to say this season. Nice to see him getting good applause when he went off.
