A number of Everton supporters were left unimpressed with Michael Keane’s first half display against Manchester City on Sunday afternoon.
Carlo Ancelotti’s side headed into the final day with an outside chance of qualifying for Europe, and the Toffees manager made two changes to the side which beat Wolves 1-0 on Wednesday evening, with Mason Holgate and Tom Davies coming in for Seamus Coleman and Yerry Mina respectively.
However, it was Keane‘s performance which had a number of Everton fans talking on social media, and not for the right reasons. The 28-year-old was making his 33rd start of the Premier League campaign and 41st appearance in all competitions.
Keane was partnering Ben Godfrey in a back four, coming up against City striker Gabriel Jesus, with Pep Guardiola’s side racing into an early two-goal lead with goals from Kevin De Bruyne and Jesus.

Here is what these Toffees fans had to say about Keane’s display, with one fan describing him as ‘horrific’ and other calling him a ‘donkey’ as he largely struggled.
