My point exactly.
He did, however, make sure those channels got run the fuck out of
Actually think it makes relative sense to just keep hold of him as a 4th CB. We've got so much else to do this summer. He won't play very often.sam of the south wrote: ↑Fri May 23, 2025 8:36 pm Dylan, I got a baaad feelin on this one, alright; I mean I gotta bad feelin (John C McGinley voice)
I'd be happy with that as long as he's also offered less than he's on, pretty sure he's earning 80k a week and if he's 4th choice, we shouldn't be paying him that.
Yeah, you're not going to get anyone of any great quality or better than Keane to come and sit on the bench most weeks, if he's happy to do that on lower wages then the club can concentrate on other areas then it's not that bad.UnsyisaRhino wrote: ↑Fri May 23, 2025 9:09 pm I'd be happy with that as long as he's also offered less than he's on, pretty sure he's earning 80k a week and if he's 4th choice, we shouldn't be paying him that.
I get we need to move on from him, but we need to move on from half the squad who's contract isn't ending, as well as the 12 who's are.
We're probably going to keep a few people who in an ideal world, we'd much rather replace.
I never get that "the whole team falls apart" when he plays narrative, you only need to look when he scores how happy all the players are for him and how popular he is in the squad, I'd question the the rest of the squad rather than him if that was the case. You're not going to get anyone of great quality to be fourth choice, either a young, untested player or a Ben Mee. He's an experienced PL centre back who would be fine for cover and save us having to find and buy someone else. It might not be ideal but that's the position we're in now.Audrey Horne wrote: ↑Fri May 23, 2025 9:11 pm I dont understand how it suits us though? If it gets to the point he has to play, then the whole team falls apart. Why have a player who affects the team so negatively due to his frailties? There is no positive for him staying.
I dont think he isnt very liked, and i dont think he isnt popular, he obviously is and he seems really lovely lad.Gash wrote: ↑Fri May 23, 2025 9:20 pm I never get that "the whole team falls apart" when he plays narrative, you only need to look when he scores how happy all the players are for him and how popular he is in the squad, I'd question the the rest of the squad rather than him if that was the case.

It's not like he'd play much, injuries aside or a tactical sub towards the end of a game he won't get on the pitch and if it needs our 4th choice to come on it's either him or some other player that's only good enough to be fourth choice. Anyway, with the money saved our dynamic new midfield will cover in any issues we'll have when he comes on.Audrey Horne wrote: ↑Fri May 23, 2025 9:27 pm I dont think he isnt very liked, and i dont think he isnt popular, he obviously is and he seems really lovely lad.
But 100% the team step back and there is a lack of confidence in the defence when he is playing.
