It seems like that sometimes but it isn't outside of a handful of posters really. Your post aligns with how the majority feel I think.
If we had two strikers in similar positions (i.e. one 19 year old who missed a few sitters but is top scorer in League 1 while on loan from the best club in England and a 23 year old sitting on the bench behind Salah but starting cup games and scoring a few) we'd all be delighted. We'd also probably all think the latter could do with a loan move to play a full season or two. PL2 doesn't count for much imop when you see what Parrot did there compared to his form now in lower senior leagues (Odubeko is a more recent example).
For some reason Liverpool fans and a few anti-Kenny heads have hitched their wagon to Kelleher so strongly that they take that perspective as an attack on Kelleher himself. There's a similar thread about Ciaran Clark. A read back through this thread doesn't reveal much criticism of Kelleher at all after he starts against Ajax in the CL i.e. when he started featuring in proper senior games. It is full of hyperbolic criticism of Bazunu and even the forgotten man Travers though.
