Think he's doing alright. Scoring lots of goals look quite entertaining, top of the table. |  | | |

I think having a better squad than most in the league is definitely helping him. |  | | |

Err. He didn't sign anyone. Thats the point. Someonelse decided which players were coming in. Keen wasnt let any where near the decision making process. |  |

really, so he had no say in signing Danny Murphy, Best, Gomes or Rhodes, all players he tried to get last January. I know he had to take a few foriegn players he'd never seen before but he has signed some top players for that level

You can't have it both ways. Either he has no influence over their performance. In which case you don't need a manager at all it seems. Or he is contributing in some way, in which case he should be applauded.
Every other manager in the world would be judged that way, irrespective of the set up at their club and the details of responsibilities of individual roles.
His team are top. Well done to the man I say. |  |

No. He admited himself that he hadn't seen or known about most the of the players coming in (Rhodes aside). The Malaysian football tv football pundit brought in by the chicken farmers decides and manages transfers. Keen can say who he wants, but he gets whoever the Malaysian thinks he needs, which is why they ended up with so many Portgueese players after the Malaysian popped over there. | |

he said he knew nothing of the foreign players brought in on deadline day, he obviously knew who Danny Murphy and Leon best were, he's worked with both before and knew about Rhodes and Gomes. I just think with all the abuse he gets he deserves a bit of credit, someone has coached that team into a decent side at that level | | | |

He didn't know or see some of the young foreign guys but Nuno Gomes, Danny Murphy, Best and Etuhu will be players he knows or maybe even has coached himself.
He's fluent in Portuguese also having played there for three years so probably knows a bit about the league. | | | |

Agreed. Working with players he knows little about makes it more of an achievement, doesn't it? |  | | |

Felt a bit sorry for the guy last season with all the abuse he took from various quarters. He never gave up, albeit a bit naively, believing he could keep Blackburn up. This season will be the one that will make or break the man. A surprisingly good start so far, but there's miles to go to the finishing line yet.
The guy is a trier, one can't fault him for that, but he is also a careless fool. Does anyone know the outcome or possible outcome of his undercover slating of Allardyce which threatened to undermine the bloke further last season? |  |

the outcome was the same as the panorama programme on Big Sam, he threatened legal action then did nothing | | | |

Kean was the tactical mastermind in the tactics-free halcyon days of Coleman and Kean down at Fulham, where any player who could be played out of position was, where we played one up top against Cheltenham at home in the cup, where key players and good eggs were ostracised, and where players who'd been superb or at least decent under Tigana, often became sloppy and unfit under Coleman. Kean even once explained that giving the ball away wasn't a bad thing as it gave you a chance to regroup and the team with the ball had to run around with it...which is a bit unconventional. Seeing as Coleman always said he was the motivator and that Kean was the coaching wizard, most Fulham fans have a pretty low opinion of the bloke.
I think the BRFC fans have the hump with him because of the snidey way Allardyce got the boot and he got the job, and the relationship he has with their owners, as they have with the football/results. But do you think they'd have gone down with Allardyce in charge? |  |

I think the chicken farmers are doing one of those infinite monkey experiments to try and definitively prove that football management is a load of tosh by leaving the bloke in charge. interesting to see how it works out. |  | | |

Kean is a paradox. He makes a habit of alienating players. Lies about the owners intentions and plans. Seems to have no control over things that any self-respecting manager would have control over. Has made a significant element of the support mistrust and hate him.
Yet he seems to be able to set up and motivate a team often enough to win games.
I learned my lesson 18 months ago when I bet on them to be relegated because I wrongly thought he was completely out of his depth. It's a mistake to assume that things will necessarily continue as they are but I wouldn't want to bet against him being the promotion mix. Could a club with that much wrong get promotion? I suppose we did.  | | | |

no they wouldn't have gone down with Allardyce but that was a few years back now, I'm not suggesting the bloke is a good manager just that he's not as clueless as many make out, he's doing well this season despite the odds really stacked against him. After all the stick he's had from the Blackburn fans I feel like i want to see him do well. | | | |

By that logic shouldn't Southampton and Liverpool be 'succeeding' a bit better than they are? | | | |

They've spent more than Leicester this season yes. Purse strings seem to be coming in a little there after a few years of stupid spending lumbered them with a poor team. | | | |
