Why does Keates keep doing this?

Though Kelly doesn't look like a central midfielder either. Man-of-the-match? Comical.
The tactic with either Kelly, Devereicks or Holroyd on the left is to drift inside pulling the fullback with him allowing Jennings to push on and get a cross in. Therefore a playmaking centre midfielder like Kelly or Devereicks should be able to play that role. That's why you also don't see Roberts as an attacking threat, Roberts can slot in as a third centre back when Jennings pushes up. Manny is the left sided centre back as his pace covers for balls played in behind Jennings.
Roberts and Rutherford are the hard working solid right side giving balance to the more fluid left side of Jennings and whoever is left mid
