Seydou Keita

[coolasif]

Are we playing Busi in defense just to accommodate keita in midfield.Our defense is crap when we playh 2 dm as CB.This nonsense must be stopped for god sake.

 

[Yugi]

no Keita as DM, EVER
please Pep for the love of god please

Let's make a petition for that!

IMO subbing him for Puyol was a mistake, Pep should have kept him for 90 mins. We were shutting Milan's few counter attacks and movements out so easily when he was on the pitch. Im talking about the 2nd half mainly where he dropped back to defense.

 

[Cal-FCB]

Sensational tonight, he was everywhere. Stopped some crucial attacks.

 

[xaviniesta]

him and abidal are beast at winning ball back. i think they recovered 25-30 balls together tonight.

 

[Vegy]

A true box-to-box midfielder.

 

[jairzinho]

A solid performance for the critics and haters by Keita.

 

[knicks]

Great performance,he was everywhere..nice game!

 

[Barcaman]

Very solid I agree.
I don't think it'll change the fact he's not a DM though.

 

[Theconomist]

Good game but again he can't play DM Badger style for example.

 

[Catalonian Devil]

Love how the crowd adores this man, what a performance tonight.

 

[rmpcsl]

The solution for us:
Send Keita/Maxwell to Milan plus money for Thiago Silva
So Pep cannot play Keita DM and do not put Busquets CB.

He played great, but shouldnt be a DM... Sadly Pep would listen only to Cruyff about that...

Thought he played very well there last night.. his passing is always going to be the burden on him but you can't fault him for either of the goals that went in. He was all over the pitch, winning balls back everywhere. He's most certainly not first choice for that position but a serviceable backup just like he's always been.
