Percy Veer Posted November 30, 2022 Report Share Posted November 30, 2022 (edited) The Keanu Baccus express train keeps rolling along. Well done, Sir! It was great that he got more game time than a cameo appearance, the World Cup only comes around every four years, football is a short career and he's not guaranteed to be at every World Cup so I'm glad his national team have got through to the next stages and I hope he's relishing every minute of it all. Edited November 30, 2022 by Percy Veer Cameo appearance not a "camera appearance"! :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truesaint Posted November 30, 2022 Report Share Posted November 30, 2022 (edited) The buddies new lucky charm. Is this the season we reach top *. Let's not f**king say it out loud though. GL to Keanu and the Aussies in the last 16. Hope they get Argentina and Baccus gives Messi a lesson 😀 Kea, Kea, Keanu Keanu, Keanu, Kea, Kea Keanu He's yours for a million quid.

exiledfan Posted November 30, 2022 Report Share Posted November 30, 2022 Great to see him come on in each game. The Aussie gaffer must rate him highly. Let's see him get a goal in the last 16. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Posted November 30, 2022 Report Share Posted November 30, 2022 Hopefully the club will do the right thing, and give him a share of the cash we get from him playing in the world cup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbur Posted November 30, 2022 Report Share Posted November 30, 2022 By bringing Keanu Baccus on at half time as Australia's first substitute, Graham Arnold has heralded Baccus as a key member of his Australian squad, not as just a jersey filler. I'll be sad to see Keanu leave Paisley but, for such hugely a talented player, it is almost inevitable that he'll be gone before long. Going on to bigger and better things, hopefully with our best wishes (and a bumper transfer fee into our bank account). 😁😁😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MenstrieSaint Posted November 30, 2022 Report Share Posted November 30, 2022 I reckon the number 26 suggests that he was the last name down on the squad list , probably picked from four or five possibles . He must be doing exceptionally well in training to be used in all three games . Especially coming on at half time today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could he be heading to Parkhead ? I suspect Aaron Mooy and Ange Postacoglou could tempt him to Celtic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rate Keanu as much as any Saints' fan, but I doubt he'll be on Celtic's radar for the sort of sum we would hope for. IF they took him, they'd be looking to get him on the cheap and I think our board would allow it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antrin Posted December 1, 2022 Report Share Posted December 1, 2022 Great pre-tournament interview with him. solid, competent, confident lad. sounds like he was the last pick for the squad, unsure if he’d get many minutes…. But happily he has blossomed, since. a few mentions of St Mirren and also Paisley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking there will be offers in roundabout £700k with him still having 18 months left on his contract and probably a few clubs looking at him . If he gets on from the start against Argentina, he could go for over a million . Its hard for clubs to make good signings during the winter transfer window and Keanu would bring energy to most midfield. A team like Sheffield Wednesday, West Brom , Sunderland would be a good move for him . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonny Posted December 1, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2022 Celtic are signing a 24yo Canadian for £3.5m. Hopefully there is another club out there wanting our 24yo Australian for a similar amount (not that I want Keanu to leave), but we cannot let him go for a few hundred K.Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
