cosmic Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 As said elsewhere, I wouldn't object to Keogh leaving as so much of the fanbase seems to have fallen out of love with him. I felt he drove us on like a man possessed in the first two-thirds of the season, desperate for promotion. While he doesn't anticipate danger well enough to be a top centre back, he's clearly good in this division, as voted for by his peers last season.Who do you expect him to be, Spider-man?!

Duracell Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Can the keogh haters name a better cb at that price.And go do one if you say bucko. Surely if you're a Keogh "hater", you can list dozens of players better at that price, because you don't rate him as a £4m player? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott129 Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Can the keogh haters name a better cb at that price.And go do one if you say bucko. Not a "Keogh hater" but Shackell, for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEL Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Will never forget that last ditch tackle against Cardiff at iPro that was quality from Keogh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
needles Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 who out of your list do you think watches him the most and is in a better position to judge over the course of a couple of seasons and important games?Certainly Clough and McClaren saw more of him than us, as do his colleagues, so they're in a better position. Importantly his peers get to compare and judge him against his competitors in that position for other clubs and are far better placed to say whether he's a good defender or not. His international camp get to see him at close quarters and certainly scout plenty and are able to watch technical analysis of his performance that we don't. So probably the worst placed to judge are the fans.Who do you think is better qualified to transfer minutes watched into accurate judgement? Bottom of that list would be the fans, and those fans that don't see what he brings are at odds with the professionals. In most fields, when a pro speaks it pays to listen.

harryram Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Not a keogh hater but any respectable offer I would take in a heart beat. Personally think it's idle journalism. Keogh is no where near shackells quality and is and never will be a leader.cant believe he's only 28. Looks at least 48. Maybe that what playing with shotton does to ya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gypsy Ram Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Not a "Keogh hater" but Shackell, for one.This is why keogh has been wanted by prem teams for two years in a row and shackell is wanted by Derby in the championship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostyn6 Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Ironically, I'd rather have a clumsy battler like Keogh over an uncommitted showpony like Shackell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cam the Ram Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Yes but what clowns picked the team of the year and left out the player of the yearThe clowns who picked it were the rest of the Championship players. So the majority voted Keogh as the best defender they'd played against over the likes of Manga, Ayala and Bassong etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uptherams Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 You can have him for £4m. The only reason why his value is even that high is because of 3 simple facts. Our club captain, international player and largely goes injury/suspension free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cam the Ram Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Great news. Keogh and Shackell at the back would be brilliant (If he signs). Honestly think we'd struggle if we had a partnership of Shackell and Albentosa/Pearce/Buxton just due to the lack of pace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the record BR I agree with you but I'm still thrown by your logic of "Keogh haters please find a better CB for £4m", surely the whole point is that in their opinion, you can get way better for that money? In fact if the club is prepared to let him go, isn't that their point too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxjam Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Hmm, I haven't hit 10 posts yet and now I'm gonna go against the majority and say that I rate Keogh - certainly at Championship level - and think that with a good defender alongside him and the removal of the captaincy he'll have a great season.
