Robbie Keane sale

[millers-tach]

I am not sure we will manage to get him off the books that easy due to two things. First his wages but most teams would be able to come close to what he is on so a settlement should be reasonable to reach.
 
Secondly the teams who will be in the market for him will either be struggling or have a striking one/pair in place. I doubt he would fancy a club who may just get rid of the manager soon after (Spanners, Fulham etc).
 
I think he will move as he clearly wants to play and isnt some mercinery bench warmer so hopefully a compramise on transfer/wages and his expectaions. Hopefylly doesnt come back to haunt us this season.

Robbie and his stunning wife where on the late late show tonight..(Irish Chat Show)...he said him..harry and levy are going to sit down now in the new year and have a chat about his situation..dont rule him out staying put...that seemed to be what he was saying. 

[Metalanimal]

Thing is if he is to stay due to his getting on in years and wage he must be contributing directly to our effrots as he is not a development player for our future.

If there are no plans or intention for him to figure regulary for us then while we can still get a few quid he must be sold off and to save us wages!

I rate RK and apprecaite he efforst for our great club but its clear he can not serve a purpose for us anymore.

Robbie and his staining wife are hardly going to limit their options, and negotiating position, by saying that he is definately gonna go no matter what club asks and no matter what pittance of a wage they are gracious enough to offer...

so naive, its kinda cute.... almost.

What ever and where ever you go Keano, i will salute you!!

[Metalanimal]

I reaaly would pref it wasnt to an EPL club though, as he still has a good season or to left in him and it would be just our luck it will come out against us!

[Gareth Keown]

hope Keano stays in the Prem.... cos he will do damage to the other clubs far more than against Spurs.... after all, we do have...

Thats true, but you know if Robbie was to score against us he would probably be cheered by us, and he wouldn't celebrate either - that for me just shows the integrity of the man. A true THFC Legend in my eyes

That is true - when he was doing his cartwheel celebration he never performed it after having scored against his former clubs.

He can go as long as its not Sunderland. Somehow sunnyland have a knack on getting goals from our ex-players especially against US!

IMO Keane is the best striker on our books.  He's just let us and himself down.  He's only 30.  He should be at his peak and he looks like an old man.

The only way to get RK firing again is to constantly play him.  It's the only way he is going to get sharp because whatever he is doing off the pitch/in training is making him look a shadow of his former self.

But why should we have 2 or 3 games with 10 men waiting for him to get his fitness back?  There is a certain culture at Spurs that has given us this soft center.

With the Lennons, Keanes, Huddlestones, Huttons, Defoes, O Haras, Bentleys of the team:  they tend to take a quater of a season to recover form after injuries.

Real class players like King and VDV can come back and have instant impact.  IMO it's time to get rid of this soft core of super talented but mentally weak underachievers.

We need less party boys coasting on their gifts, and get more Carricks and Davids in.  Steel trapped minds who do anything to improve/fight for the cause.

Seriously Gareth you need to try harder.
 
Soft core. Lmao
 
I think you will find that recovery time from injury depends on the type of injury. Look at Fat Frank, quick healer but missed months with a nothing injury.
 
Keep them coming.

Nice to see Gibbs displaying the form that made him so hugely popular on SC..........
