North_Stand_Ram Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Played 90 mins for ROI there, and did previously in his career. Could he be an option if we sign another CH? Link to comment https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/15254-keogh-rb/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingsy1884 Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 A very good idea. I dont see why not. He is certainly quick enough and good on the ball. Would be worth trying it out in pre season especially if we get another quality CB in.

Derbydave96 Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Really do think this could be a good solution, we don't lose him and break up the squad. We get a good defensive RB who can play the same role as wisdom did this year, providing extra defensive stability. Also, we can strengthen in one of the most important areas of the team, with someone who's abit more dominant in the air and is abit more solid, and obviously keogh could allways move back to cb if needed.

davenportram Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Or 3 CHs in a 3-4-3 that can switch to 433 Grant Keogh Buxton New/Whitbread Coutts Bryson Hughes Forsyth Ward Martin Rusell Link to comment https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/15254-keogh-rb/#findComment-618188 Share on other sites More sharing options...
r4derby Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Or 3 CHs in a 3-4-3 that can switch to 433 Grant Keogh Buxton New/Whitbread Coutts Bryson Hughes Forsyth Ward Martin Rusell For that formation to work, you need at least one of your CM's to be defensive minded, which our current 3 (Bryso, Will, Jeff) are not, so we would still need Thorne/Eustace/new CDM in there. Personally, I wouldn't change a comfortable formation, we know it and it works Link to comment https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/15254-keogh-rb/#findComment-618218 Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamsTID Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 I'd like to see 4-4-2 given a go for a game in pre season. Only if we could get someone to partner Martin up front, or just play Johnny there. It's a solid formation but then I suppose there is only two CM positions available. It seemed to work well for the likes of Leicester and Burnley.

YorkshireRam Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Keogh shouldn't play RB. He's not good enough on the ball to be a marauding full back and he's too slow/not strong enough to deal with pacey wingers. Wisdom was inexperienced so often made mistakes but he could use his strength and pace to get himself out of hot water. Keogh doesn't have that luxury. Playing Keogh in RB is a ''square peg in round hole'' situation. It's an option if we got an injury crisis but I wouldn't want him to be the RB in our First XI.

Ovis aries Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Didn't he score against us when at Coventry, seem to remember him beating Barker at the far post, think he player right back that day.

But Burnley are a well organised hoofball side and Leicester's strength is their pacey and explosive wingers and too class centre forwards.

Wadey Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Strangely enough I was talking to a Coventry supporting mate of mine last week. He was singing Keogh's praises and was saying how gutted he was for him after "that clearance". He made mention the fact that Keogh's often played RB for Cov and did a great job there. Not sure myself but he was pretty insistant that he could play RB. Link to comment https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/15254-keogh-rb/#findComment-618251 Share on other sites More sharing options...
