Keita is what I wish Dier Wanyama and co was. Best buy in this transfer window imo (yeah I know they purchased him from last year but you know what I mean)

Style wise he actually reminds me of Zokora. Just 3 levels above.

I like what Roy is doing here - defends 5311 (when deep), cuts off the width, battles narrow and when they win it they look to play out through zaha drops in wait for it.

They're not slashing it away, so it just becomes defense against attack.

It's almost a shame we're so well stocked at RB because I really, really like Wan-Bissaka.

I actually think they're different types of players. Wanyama can sometimes spray the ball around nicely but he's still the type of DM in which I've always thought less is better. Hassle, win the ball, lay it off. Keita looks to have the ability to take the ball on himself and play a bit.

Still not convinced by Zaha. Seems to want to do one trick too many plus he’s been walking around quite a bit. Not sure how well he’d do under Poch in all honesty.

Yeah I agree, for me Keita is more comparable to an all-action version of Dembele. Definitely not a defensive player.

Why didn’t the linesman flag against Milner for going through the back of Zaha then? Fuck I’d be ropeable if I was a Palace fan
