Everton centre-back Michael Keane has been blasted for a “woeful” performance for England against the Czech Republic.
The defender was criticised during the last international break because of his mistake against Kosovo and he was at it again in the defeat tonight.
Manager Gareth Southgate has shown a lot of faith in Keane but many fans believe he simply is not good enough.

READ EVERTON VERDICT
Keane is extremely low on confidence at the moment and this performance will only make things worse for him and Everton.
The centre-back is well-known for being poor at marking during set-pieces and he looked nervous again when he was needed for his country.
The quicker Southgate gets him out of the firing line the better. He needs some time to get himself together, starting with Everton in the Premier League.
