This SBC has received a lot more negativity than it should have done, Keane is a very solid player and by far the best cdm I've used on FUT this year. So to start off, his tackling is ridiculously good and he'll win the ball nearly every time. His AI movement alone will win you the ball back many times, as his defensive positioning and interceptions are both very good. His passing is amazing at any range, wouldn't try and do anything too risky with him on purpose though. His high stamina means he can keep up his classic intense defensive style for the duration of the match. His pace is everyone's main concern with this card, but honestly if you put a shadow on him then he has enough pace to keep up with anyone. For someone with only 70 agility he feels good on the ball. His shooting is nothing incredible, but for a defensive midfielder it is decent, he's got a good long shot on him and he can definitely ping them when needed. Overall he's a very solid player and the SBC is worth completing if you are looking for a cdm.

Roy Keane, where do i start. He wins every single tackle, and is surprisingly good on the ball. with shadow he can chase down most attackers, and his passing is faultless. if you are thinking about picking him up, he is 100% worth it. My favorite CM on the game.

I used my 83x25 at the start of TOTY which was a huge mistake. I packed high rated players, none of which fitted my team. I eventually decided that this fodder was worthy of an icon sbc and I thought Keane was the best fit, since he was essentially Kante, but with links to everyone. Wow. He has probably been one of the best decisions i've made in fut this year. Intercepts everything that moves. Tackles like the other player isn't even there, and escapes without a foul. Passes better than De Bruyne. His shooting is top-notch too, and his physicality means that when he's shielding the ball, even if the entire team crowded him, he still wouldn't lose it. Absolutely magnificent. There are a few problems, but nothing of huge concern. His dribbling is not amazing, but he can still get past a few players, and his passing makes up for it. He's someone best suited in stopping the opposition's play and linking up our team's play. If you're still thinking about whther or not to get him as your new cdm or even cm, stop thinking, and get him. You won't regret it.
Nobody can get past him, tackles everyone, and intercepts everything. Tackling in the box is incredible too.
Passes are incredible, better than all my other midfielders.
Shooting is better than I expected; outside the box, inside the box, he'll finish perfectly.
Feels heavy and clunky sometimes, but still dribbles fairly well
Ireland never get enough credit on FIFA. Yes, they're not Brazil or France in terms of Icons, but I'm a massive Premier League fan and the imbalance of Icons on FIFA is fairly biased towards England. Yes, there are deserved Icons such as Gerrard, Shearer and so on, but some are a joke. Sol Campbell, a bit above average defender, would be around the standard of Alederweireld today. Compare that to Ireland's Paul McGrath, a player with R9's knee problem over which Man Utd tried to make hi retire so they wouldn't have to come up against him. Many recognise his heroics against Italy as one of the best defensive performances of all time. He shared the pitch with Maldini and Baresi and outplayed them on every scale. A for Sol Campbell, nothing special and, according to himself, not quick at all. EA give him over 80 pace on all his cards. Nice. Ian Wright may cry on tv and may have had a tough life, but his PL scoring record is mediocre and comes in at 20th in the all time list. Above him is a certain Robbie (not Roy) Keane, who only played a portion of his playing days in England, compared to Ian Wright's entire career there. Fi that EA.
Now, as for my Keane review, I just wanted to point out that in his prime, he was one of United's fastest players. This is his prime card, but it has 72 pace. Nice. But anyway, he feels quick enough. He's small enough to feel fast with a chem boost, but no ideal for chasing down rapid strikers and wingers. I have him on stay back, which is ideal. An opponent would try a counter attack, but Keane just sweeps out, cleans up the ball with banging tackles. For opponent counters, I don't need to use Varane of Freeze Casemiro. Keane does it all. As a result, I can use Fernandes POTM as my other CM. Keane provides that much defensive cover that bruno only has to make 1or 2 tackles a game, with loads of attacking freedom. As a result, I win much more games with practically an extra attacker and no need to move CBs out of position. I don't care if people say he's not ''meta'' because he's not Kante. I played with them both at the same time and Keane outshined him, and I realised I could play without two out and out CDMs, something I couldn't do with Kante because of how important the Icon factor is in this situation.
So stop with these fake ideas and just do the SBC.
- Defensive positioning and interceptions-always at the right place at the right time.
- Always comes away with the ball, making crunching tackles.
- Makes very few fouls due to high defending.
- Stamina means he can do his thing all game.
- Top class passing to start counters.
- Not as rapid but still gets by.
- Has let me down in front of goal on the rare occasion I've shot with him.
This may sound controversial about such a good card on the outside stats and in game stats but he's brilliant at best. I just think he is too different in different. I say this because in one game, he would stop every attack and help the team get a clean sheet but in another game, he might make an error leading to goal. I just think he is too inconsistent sometimes. At the same time, he is brilliant as I have a shadow on him which makes him have 99 interceptions, 99 stand and slide tackle which really does come in handy sometimes. I play him at CDM in game and sometime he comes running up the pitch and tries to help out with the attack which is good but when the opponent has a counter attack, only 1 of my CDM's are back ( I play 4 2 2 2 In game) and that's a problem because I can't defend as well. Sometimes he scores some bangers like long range goals but do not trust him to shoot at far post in short range because he misses quite a lot of the time because of the 70 finishing. But for a guy who has 65 shot power, he can put some power on the ball with his long shots. He's a really good CDM who likes to attack sometimes, he's just a bit Clunky.
Brilliant at Defending
Pushes up the pitch to attack
Good at Delivering Corners
Good at Clearing Corners
Nice long shots
Better than most CDM's
Clunky so he feels slower than he actually is
He attacks so much that if the opponent counter attacks, he won't be able to recover
Awful Finishing and Close range shots
2 star skill moves
3 Star weak foot
Decent card with great defensive stats. DO NOT PLAY HIM AT CAM. Ive seen many people use roy keane there and i have been able to beat the 4/5-0 in fut cahmps. he cant use his defensive stats up there. Play him at CDM or at CM with defensive custom tactics. He good but quite clunky.
