This Is Crazy 

The fact that this dude played more minutes at afcon than for Werder this season is absolutely mindblowing.

“I was born with glass bones and paper skin. Every morning I break my legs, and every afternoon I break my arms. At night, I lie awake in agony until my heart attacks put me to sleep.” -That guy in Spongebob.

The assumption in Germany is that he simulated most of those illnesses

"Hit the ground RUNNING" ... And at that moment I knew I had to be like Keita and leave.

Why aren't you running? WHY AREN'T YOU RUNNING??

As a Werder Bremen Fan I thought about this man constantly throughout this season.

I can't believe you told me Leverkusen won the league. I wanted to watch the whole season after it's completed

Seeing Werder Bremen be this low so often is a fall off in it's own right, Bremen was basically always top 5 from 1980-2010 and won the league three times in that time

I am really surprised how much international coverage this is getting, I am not used to that at my club lol What should be noted is that we have a pretty big injury crisis going on at Werder, so he is not only a bench player with a full squad, he even is one when almost anyone else on the bench are kids to fill the seats. But honestly there is no other way. During the last international break there was a friendly, which I didn’t watch because obviously but all I heard about it was how bad Keita was in that match. Normally I wouldn’t care for performances in friendlies but with his limited playing time, to put it nicely, that really was a chance he should have tried to take but according to those unanimous accounts, he blew that spectacularly. To justify such an attitude you have to prove the coach wrong whenever you get an opportunity but he was never good for us, so that is it. I find it hard to imagine him finding another club at that level because injuries unfortunately really weren’t the only issue

Zealand talking about my club? Is it already christmas? First of all: No, we are sadly still in threat of a tough relegation-battle, but if we manage to stay up this year we have a promising future ahead of us after the new investor deal and the new initiative to put all our focus on youngsters like Aroen-Hansen or Alvero. What people from the outside obviously don't know about the Keita-situation is that he has a very performance-related contract here in Bremen. For every minute he was on the field, he earned more than basically any other player club. That's why he didn't get alot of minutes when he wasn't in good condition and let's be honest: He never was in any good condition so far this season. The last time he played, he made with his first pass of the game the fatal mistake which ended in the game deciding 2:0. I really don't know why Keita expected to be just two weeks after that in the starting line-up against freaking Leverkusen of all teams but here we are. We had very high expectations in him. Sad to see how this turned out.

It’s screaming Sparta Prague or Olympiacos level type player whether he accepts that reality or not.

His mind was so blown he forgot to run

Your English improved a lot

Pretty sure hes regarded as the one big transfer error klopp made while at liverpool

Funny that you say Naby Keita should get back to Training. Werder have literally banned him from the teams locker room for the rest of the season. And I mean that literally, Werder tweetet that Love that you brought up a topic concerning my favourite team Z, keep up the great vids

Have to get 'lore' into every video after only learning what it meant 3 months ago.

I wonder if these types of videos could appear as a podcast on spotify. I think they would do great!

Zealand is running his mouth when he should be running his legs

No running and no green lights. I’m appalled

You can do the same video for Donny Van de Beek at Eintracht Frankfurt. Difference is that he is not injured but they still dont play him

As a Werder Bremen fan from Germany I'm so fucking done with him 😂

Didn't expect to ever see my club here.... but of course it is for a story like this

Good luck sir. I ran the Reykjavik marathon 2 years ago and I’m still injured from it. Take your training very seriously, don’t make the same mistake I did.

Tampa Bay Mutiny shirt 👀

That kit is absolutely glorious

This happens a lot with Liverpool players that leave, I think Klopp is such a good coach that he makes players look far better than they might actually be. Henderson, Fabinho, Firmino, Mané, Keïta, Coutinho, Wijnaldum, Shari, Origi, Lovren, all have fallen off to varying degrees. Now granted some left already with their powers on the wane, and some still could play at a decent prem level, but none are capable of the title challenging form they achieved under Klopp

To quote chael sonnen, you don't decide when you're done but one day you wake up and the sport is done with you.

The way I see it Cm Jens Stage had a red card and was suspended for the LeverKusen game and Naby just assumed he would take that starting place

Make a video about Pep subbing off Kevin De Bryune after he plays 112’ to rest him for 8’ only to get knocked out of the UCL by his replacing missing a penalty. Pep doing pep things in the UCL.

Words like crazy and insane just don't have the same oomph anymore.

The lights are BLUE

As a fan of Werder Bremene, I feel for him but also dont. He looked good the first couple times he was subbed, then got a chance to start and did practically nothing. After that he was injured, and couldnt play for us but at the same time went to AFCON and played decent minutes while we he had told us he was injured. Then after Guinea were knocked out, he miraculously couldnt play with us again. The whole situation has me mixed, because the whole AFCON thing did make it look like he was lying about when he could and couldnt play, and the leaving the squad bus in our most recent game is obviously bad. But i feel for him, ive watched this club lick the ass of this manager who doesnt give anyone the chance to prove themselves and sticks to age and players who have been in the club the few years hes been there. Every player no matter how good they are pretty much has to wait a year into the time at the club to be played as much as they deserve. And the more players rumoured to want a departure this season, prove that the locker room isnt happy with Ole Werner anymore and now Naby Keita might be gone. Im not too upset, because the constant injurys and illness (assume they are all bad enough to warrant not playing) but still dont think he was ever given the proper chance because of Ole Werner and the clubs management as of later and general feel around the club cant have helped motivate him. Sorry about writing my life story, or more accurately Naby Keitas, but got to get it off my chest. Funnily enough, during AFCON Werder had phenomenal run of form with the 2nd best start to the ruckrunde behind Leverkusen. Now it looks light we might be relegated. So be it tbh, club needs heavy changes and at least i should see the club win more

I can't take Zealand seriously without green lights

I have a keita figure lol. I bought it on anfield shop for a dollar.

If I had a penny for every time a player left Liverpool for Germany, before pissing off their club for lack of discipline... I'd have two pence, but weird that it's happened twice

Naby Keita is made of paper.

Zealand needs a Strava so we can track his running

no runs = no views more runs = more views

(sad long-suffering Bremen fan noises)

Thing is, at Leipzig he really was fantastic. Bundesliga Player of the season, no contest. And he was only 22. I do hope somehow he can find that spark again. Werder knew they were placing a bet here, but they have done that before - like when they signed Johan Micoud who was deemed to be past his peak, but he would be their guiding star for four seasons. If the Keita signing had worked, they'd have been hailed as geniuses. It did not, and apparently Keita has to shoulder quite some of the blame. Oh well. I understand his frustration. Saudi-Arabia beckons.

He's not the best Guinean player. Guirassy is. By far

Don't disrespect Guirassy by calling this no name the goat of Guinea

Hairline dropping faster than Taunton. Inject it!

"they're also not relegation threatened at the moment" people who know how Werder Bremen usually performs at the the end of a season: 😬😬😬

I’m sure talking about Werder granted a Green light in the background 😢

Keith was great in my fm16 save

Watching zealand cramp up instead of Arsenal bottling it rn… I think this is the correct choice

I’d have him at Portsmouth..

Careful with the running. Don't let Julian Araujo get behind you, and also Ronald.

I never understood why Liverpool splurged for Keita the way they did. And very few players "just don't have it anymore" at 28, that's when you should be in your prime. He either didn't take care of his body in a way he should have as a professional athlete and is broken beyond his years, or he has a mentality issue and calls in sick whenever he doesn't feel like showing up. Why would Clemens Fritz sign the guy, just to make him a bench warmer and tarnish his reputation. I'm sure Bremen could have used the money they paid him very well for other signings.

Guinea hope is gurasssy

Liverpool's loss is also Werder Bremen's loss. Leipzig laughing at both clubs. How is such a drop-off possible?

Imagine that, the player with an ego problem is KEITA🤣

7:35 *based ON

why not the london marathon mate? are you addicted to honey?

Run Zealand Run? 🏃

hit the ground running with ur feet.

You should make a video about Flamini. You'd assume a retired player has some money, but he's like a billionaire or something now lol

Naby won us the league, best player after covid that year 💪🏼 YNWA #TheStreetsWontForget

It's not a meme, it's your health

Idk Z sounds like a prime chelsea candidate

What aren’t you running from?!

As a Werder dan, I can tell you even when he was fit he wasnt trying at training. Gread technic, 0 motivation.

Theres only a handful of games left of the season, so not much of a punishment really!

Haha city lost. Delicious tears. The 115 have fallen flat. Btw Bernardo Silva took one of the worst penalties I have seen in a long time tbh.

So, you’re telling me you stopped running? Not cool Z. Not cool.

If he wants crazy has he checked out Lamkel Ze yet?

Moist critikal football edition:

He must surely have a child at nursery. Or he is still at nursery. One of the two.

Lol remember when he signed for Liverpool and their fans compared him to Pogba? They were right, but for the wrong reasons 😂

Andre Schürrle never did such stupid stuff like Keita did. Thats just unfair to say for Schürle.

Don’t record Zealandisms, don’t stream, don’t even record anything. Just run.

this guy won a champions league and prem and other cups by sitting on his ass or lying down wind could hurt him

"From the 7th of October to the 16th of March, Naby Keita did not play at all." But he still ran farther than Zealand did today

Hey guys, I don't know about you, but for some reason I just don't think we should nag Z about running. It had a good...run, but it seems kinda played out now. Time to let it die.

I do wonder sometimes whether these players that have consistent injury issues should literally just take a year off, they have these obvious cycles of muscle injury, rehab, come back, play some game, not match fit, different muscle injury. Maybe physios coaches etc. are better off just looking at it and going, just write them off for a season, no games, light training at most, just build strength, fitness, flexibility etc. over a year. Obviously players want to play and get paid and careers are short, but surely a year not playing to then have some good solid seasons is better than stop start, bit part seasons injury to injury. I also think people always forget about the mental side to this, yet his attitude is not great, but can you imagine the amount of times the guy has got injured, the amount of hours with the physio doing rehab exercises (anyone who has done that knows how much of a grind that sort stuff is) over and over again, only to make it back to playing and go down with something else. That is going to sap the determination and will out of most people.

How are you so slow 😂

good videos, i would not even have found it without seeing the thumbnail by accident, your video names really are holding you down, with zero informations in the video title, its very unlikely i click it xD i mean ... you sabotage urself with these titles xD

He had all the potential to be a great player, however it's seems his mental attitude did not match his ability I think the mentality of a player is one of the biggest career killers so many players who could have had fantastic careers at the top level end up washed up because they don't have the right attitude or think their talent will speak louder than the hard work that is actually needed to remain consistent at top level, dele Ali is another prime example of this he could have been something special but he began to slack off didn't put the work in and abused substances to try and resolve his personal issues Jessie linguard the same and even Marcus rashford hasnt developed into the type of footballer he could have been Daniel sturridge was plagued by injuries and seemed to give up and injuries doesn't have to end a players career or make it go on a downward spiral if they actually have the mental strength to get through it. There's so many could mention but they are ones that spring to mind immediately

Wow what a forehead

How come ALL the comments in this comment are so fcking funny??

0 views in 0.1 seconds nah bro fell off

He has always been a lazy guy. Can see it on the pitch when he does actually play. However rare that is

Disgraceful, let’s all feel sorry for the multi millionaire for not even bothering to show up to his job he gets paid hundreds of thousands to do😢

Since you chose to be vague in ur titles, maybe get to the point. Do u realise every new viewer who clicked on this thought the following "This is clickbait but I'm curious what it's about. Oh marathons, I have no interest in that. I'll make a mental note not to watch this marathons channel next time it gets recommended."

Naby Keita haa never been a good player. He's not a DM, not a AM, too lazy to be a b2b, injury prone. Perfect example of an massively overrated player. And now he's earned his money, it's down tools time. Typical footballer really.

IM THINKING HES AN AGE SCAM!!! probably 5 years older than he says he is. that’s why he get injured so much

Who cares. I can't get past this ego.

Man, I feel like if you're be completely unprofessional and consistent injured, you should at least be as good as Neymar. But alas, you're not. You're Naby Keita. Stealing paychecks for the last half decade.

He was never that good, not at Liverpool, not anywhere

Embarrassing footballer

Mate you should talk about our club a bit more we are 4× german champions and 6x german cup winners LEBENSLANG GRÜN-WEIß💚🤍💚🤍

He’s definitely not just 28 years old lmao

dude the way you talk about strating to run sounds like me talking about quitting my vices 😂 "ill start when the move goes through".. why not just F*CKING start NOW

WHY Aren’t you running WHY Aren’t YOU RUNNING 🏃RUN NOW BOZO

heck yeah, best of luck with marathon training, big ups
