Naby Keita

[Kevin D]

Not a great signing, but never been malicious either. I’ve only ever seen him play for Liverpool and not really seen anything conclusive to say if he’s good or not. 
 

I’ll probably never think of him again.

[Dr Nowt]

Haven’t been able to stand the sight of him for years, but not really his fault we decided to watch the same film 3 more times when it was obvious what he was after 2 seasons. And that’s allowing for having fairly given him the benefit of the doubt the first one may have just been bad luck.
 

Ridiculous decision to persist with him for absolutely fuck all benefit, which just blocked our chance of bringing in someone who might actually contribute meaningfully more than a handful of times a season.

 

Thankfully we can finally now cut our not inconsiderable losses. 
 

YNWA.

[KevieG]

After extensive you tube research I was telling people that this lad is basically a mix of Gerrard and Gazza and would bring us to a new level. 

 

[VladimirIlyich]

As Jurgen said or hinted it is amazing the amount of our big games he managed to play in. Either he wasn't as injury beseiged as we thought or 'the fucker cost us more trophies!' Or both of course.

[Dicko]

I would have finished him after the Napoli game.

Total shithouse.

[No2]

I've stuck with him when others have abandoned him. I'm not changing now,  6 days left to get himself fit and prove everyone wrong.

Just watch him be a regular and be fit to play every week wherever he goes...

If he manages 30 games next season and shows the form he was showing at Leipzig before we signed him I'll be fucking astonished. Genuinely gobsmacked.

[Anubis]

Even picks up an injury leaving, FFS.

 

 

 

 

 

[Babb'sBurstNad]

I hate him. I hope the next time he has a bag of crisps he mistakenly opens the bottom rather than the top.

[Section_31]

He's a gobshite, obvious he's been feigning injury since he decided he was off. Wage thief.

 

Up there with Ince, Carroll, Leonardsen, Koncheski and Cisse in my fucking twatty bastard LFC all time XI.

Harsh on Tom Ince, don't think he was ever good enough for us and he's had a decent career at Championship level.

I hope he goes to get an ice cream this evening and doesn't close the freezer all the way and everything melts overnight.

[janmolby]

Whoah, steady on, how's he going to ice his knee?

Sadly, he was no Gerrazza.

He needs to have a fight with Aquilani to determine who the biggest disappointment is.

It's not even close - Aquilani was binned immediately on loan then cut loose, He was also pretty cheap.

He was about 20m, so it wasn't exactly a bargain for 2009 or whenever it was. 

[Torvald Utne]

17-18m and sold for anywhere between 3 and 7m and a couple of loan fees in there, so quite a big initial transfer fee for the time but we haven't been fucked over by it on anywhere near the scale that this little keita prick has fucked us over.

[Carra_is_legend]

Aquilani replaced Xabi. So yeah I would say it was a much bigger fuck than Keita, although not very far off in comparison.

The fight would be postponed because neither were fit to attend.

Pearce article:

 

‘Players have different pain thresholds. On his Champions League debut for the club in October 2018, Keita was taken off on a stretcher after a collision with Napoli’s Jose Callejon and spent the night in Naples’ Cardarelli hospital.

 

Initially, there were fears he had suffered spinal damage, such was the level of discomfort he was in. However, after a series of scans, he was given the all-clear and returned to Liverpool by private jet. Three days later, he played against Manchester City.’

[Moctezuma]

Can't wait till this waste of a wage is gone, he really hampered us in getting over the line in big competitions and didn't really strengthen the squad, which given his outlay in transfer fee and wages is very poor.

 

I remembered watching him in a Leipzig game in a bar in Berlin and thinking ' this lad is tiny, not particularly mobile and a bit of a passenger, he'll be terrible in our league', then the entire fanbase started saying he was the greatest thing since sliced bread and all the Anglo-Deutsch journalists, who fill the obligatory bundesliga slots on podcasts, said he was better than Lothar Matthäus, so I assumed I'd caught him on an off day. Unfortunately not.
