MPH Posted 26 January 2019 Posted 26 January 2019 loved watching him play. Great keeper. he was once described at the best goalkeeper in the world by the Brazilian attackers after they faced him in an international game..
Foxhead Posted 26 January 2019 Posted 26 January 2019 My Dad worked at Kasey's house fitting him a new bathroom when he played for us. I obviously went to work for my old boy even though I had no interest in being a plumber that week. He had a top gaff, his preggers Mrs was lying round the outside pool (yes she was decent) he had all his Barclaycard MOTM Champers in a display case along with his US Player of the year trophy, a couple of pinball machines, a driving arcade machine if I remember right and loads of massive keepers gloves drying on the radiator. Although I didn't meet him, the bath we fitted was big enough for two people. I had great pride playing his messages on my dad's answer machine to my mate who didn't belive me, along with Spencer Prior's message who my old boy also did something for too. Useless info but it was awesome at the time. Great stuff when your nineteen.
Collymore Posted 26 January 2019 Posted 26 January 2019 Best reflexes I've ever seen in a human and most animals.
Voll Blau Posted 27 January 2019 Posted 27 January 2019 Great read. Still remember being at the Filbert Street end and him saving a penalty against Hasselbaink when we were playing Leeds. Everyone was going mad chanting "USA!". Great times. Think I even got my mum to buy me a sweatshirt I'd seen with an American flag on it off the back of that.
egg_fried_rice Posted 27 January 2019 Posted 27 January 2019 One of my favourite players as a lad at a time when being from America made somebody automatically cool.
Mark 'expert' Lawrenson Posted 27 January 2019 Posted 27 January 2019 Great times watching Keller, happy period in my life watching the MON teams, Keller was a fantastic keeper with a dodgy haircut ? I especially remember him having an amazing game vs an all star Newcastle side at Filbo Ginola, Ferdinand etc miss those days ?
SecretPro Posted 27 January 2019 Posted 27 January 2019 One and only time I owned a Goalie strip, Thanks Kasey! Also a period in life when asking to go in goal for 5-a-side became the right thing to do.
Ric Flair Posted 27 January 2019 Posted 27 January 2019 He was a superb player for us and would easily be the 2nd best goalkeeper we've had in the last 30+ years if it werent for Tim Flowers who came along at the back end of his career and was obscene. Keller was great though, a proper O'Neill signing who progressed his career nicely.

Got a few interested stares when I wore it to the Arsenal match! (Who's Keller? Lol!)
