Subject: Completely different improvement curves in my view
In reply to: Mark W 's message, "this, more depth, but Im not at all convinced he is better than Frampton or Dean" on 11:50 10/09/24 Tue

Keane is on a rapid improvement curve

The other two aren't

Frampton continues to be plagued by the same intensity and physicality issues he has always suffered from

At this stage Dean looks pedestrian, slow, not at all proactive.... coupled with being poor defensively on both bigger and smaller opponents.... I have a slight hope for him but it is only slight

Keane is rapidly improving, proactive, demonstrated ability to intercept in the air and win relatively high possession numbers.... yeah still gets beaten by the best forwards if has to compete one out, but most defenders do to be honest

Pretty much every club recruiter or list manager would have Keane vastly ahead of those two, with the gap potentially continuing to widen

That said, it doesn't matter
