Whilst we compare him to Jay he will always come up short, but judge him in his own right and he's doing just about enough. That's two late goals from him that may prove very important at the end of the season.

Obviously I was at a different game....Bellamy praised Keogh on a number of occasions in the first half and there were even a couple of hand slaps after good runs/plays.
Keogh is certainly not Bothroyd but he did well today in a team who played (similar to the play-off final) as if Jay was still on the pitch, i.e. pumping pointless balls up to yet another massive defence marshalled well by Cort and Brown....

He's already won us more points than Eddie or Etuhu did.
He's no Jay -but in this division who is ?

jones has GOT to put Bleeamy on the wing.
If Chops is sulking then play Keogh alongside Bothroyd. Rather see Chops and Jay together and Burke and Bellamy on the wing (and Bellamy MUST STAY wide- he comes in too often as he is TOO KEEN to get involved). Whttingham and Oli or Drinkwater in the middle.
Full backs to push up and wide as well.
We HAVE to stretch sides to take advantage of the skill and pace we have- its been too narrow for weeks and we are trying to play impossible little touches in a 20 yard wide band.
