He’s fucking rubbish and has been for the majority of his time here. Good money after bad.

Shouldn't be at the club next season.

Had a good season, but today was the Keane of old unfortunately. At fault for both their goals and overall just looked at sea.
No surprise he throws in one of these when we play more on the front foot and leave spaces everywhere. He can be effective but not at all when we play like that.

He’s had a good season in relation to his own poor standards, but for a premier league centre half he’s still been poor.
Eight goals conceded in three and a half games since he replaced Brathwaite.
When it matters, he lets you down time and time again.
Fuming he’s still here and has played so many games this season tbh.
Same is going to happen with mykolenko as well.

Don't necessarily agree with the overall opinion of his career but it's fucking madness we are relying on him still. We should be looking at Tarkowskis long term future but we can't because we've still got Keane.

It's all about partnerships for me at CB and Tarkowski-Keane is just too slow. Think you can mix any one of them with JOB/Branthwaite but it can't be both of them playing together. It just doesn't work at this level.
I blame Moyes for what we're seeing more than I do Keane because JOB should be in that position at the minute.

He is one of Moyes' favourites and will continute to be picked regardless of performances as he sits in his blind spot, same as KDH and Gana.

I don’t get where this fourth choice comes from. Moyes, like Dyche, can’t wait to get him in if either of the other two or out. Considering Branthwaite’s injury record, that’s a lot of games for a slow, meek, psychologically weak, championship defender.

He would be 4th choice if we had an RB. You'd hope next season we have one and Jake is 3rd choice, or one of the two starters.

We keep looking at the economics of having a relatively cheap 4th choice centre half as a squad filler who invariably becomes a very cheap first choice defender.
Him and Gana need to go so as Moyes isn't tempted to overuse them.

Branthwaites played for about the equivalent of five minutes in the last twelve months yet people claiming we would be playing CL if he’d managed to stay fit for more than three games at a time, he’s not the answer to our problems and doubt he will feature much more next season.

I’m not sure Moyes trust Jake, over Keane.

Still searching for that kick off?

Love how so many people said Keane would never play this season also ...
