Everton fans have slammed Michael Keane after his performance during the 2-1 win against Newcastle United on Saturday.
The 26-year-old was criticised after the part he played during the Magpies’ equaliser during the Premier League encounter.

Steve Bruce’s side drew level as Andy Carroll was left unchallenged to cushion a header down for Fabian Schar who fired home to draw the sides level.
This incident was one of a number that the England international lost out on, losing 15 out of 20 individual duels and 15 out of 18 aerial duels (via FotMob).
Watching match of the day . Question why Is Michael Keane not picking up Carrol at the back post for the Newcastle goal ? I’m sure our guy Ancelotti will sort this out . Look here and tell me who Michael Keane was picking up pic.twitter.com/MRVZivgZCw

He was previously called out by fans for performing like a ‘Sunday League player‘ during the last campaign and has been unable to eradicate the errors from his game since then.
Supporters were fuming with Keane as a result of the goal and made their feelings clear on social media. One fan said that he is not good enough to play for the club, while another hopes that Ancelotti can get rid of the deadwood in the playing squad.
Here you will find some of the best comments from Everton fans:
Absolutely criminal defending, I was confused when I seen Mina on the bench, he’d have been perfect for Carroll, anyway we won so happy days 👍🏽

Keane is unfortunately not good enough & needs to be gone as long as we have a new top class CB to play with Mina & Holgate

Shouldn’t need Carlo to tell him that it’s common sense doubt he has it we need a top quality cb
