Robbie Keane

[kop-al-74]

really disappointed keane has left. you dont lose that striker ability overnight. the treatment he has had during his 6 months was pretty disgusting IMO. he has played poor - of that there is no doubt - but i still think he would have come good. spurs have done a good bit of business today. as i said in another thread, the only good thing to come out of this deal is that maybe babel will get his chance to play up front now.

Disgusting is child abuse.Lets get things in perpective shall we.

[Frenchie]

what did we get for him?

what has child abuse got to do with robbie keane?

seriously, in a way keane has been victim of what could be perceived as bullying. for rafa to continously drop keane from the team at a time when our main and only real striker was injured must have been mental torture. to drop him from the squad and then almost immediately rant on about giving his strikers confidence by playing them in all games, to go on about how torres will need his confidence boosted when he returns from injury and ignore robbie keane was disgusting managerial behaviour.

[Frenchie]

a mere pawn in a calculating control game played by Rafa not condoning it but dare I say it fact

[Leyton388]

This transfer has to be the end of Parry IMO. What sort of employee spunks away £20m on a asset that is not wanted and the lose £5m on it in only 6 months? Surly this will prove to h&g that this clown should not be making such footballing decitions and maybe Gillet will finaly see this?

[poorscousertommy]

This is a bad move IMO.

No matter what spin you put on it we have weakened our squad whilst most around us have strenghtened theirs.

Get real man.He had his chance at the big time and blew.Thats it.There's rumours going around that even in training his teamates were astonished how technicaly poor he was.



It was a bad signing whatever reason for all.Don't forget,LFC paid top dollar for a player expecting real quality.Those chances he missed,his hold up play,movement,first touch were absolutely shocking from an alleged top class player.LFC should take spurs to court over the trade descriptions act!

Definately wasn't what it said it was on the tin!

there's no doubt his performances were poor and that the touches, skill and finishing we all saw at spurs didn't come with him to the pool. but gerard, carra and rafa all spoke highly of his training. all said he worked hard, put in some good effort and were confident it would soon start to show on the pitch. maybe it's just me, but i think keane needed his ego / confidence massaged like rafa does with torres. look at some of the performances torres puts in. not saying it's all down to rafa but it must go some way towards it.

doubt it mate
funny thing is that rafa and or parry have ****ed this up yet keane is getting pelters - your not allowed to blame rafa

rafa now has another excuse if we dont win the league - its ****in madness

[Shaggy]

Keane is "getting pelters" because he played so poorly for us. Nothing more, nothing less. Only a blind, deluded idiot could claim he played well and contributed. People can bleat all they like but Rafa & Rick didn't make him miss many good chances and try fancy flicks in front of open goals.

so you think he was given a fair run ?? seriously
why buy him ? is that down to rafa and parry or shall we blame someone else

[YNWA_IRE]

He scored a cracker against Arsenal, then 2 against Bolton in the next game... then he was dropped for the game against that, how did you expect him to get any sort of form going?

A strikers games is all about confidence, Rafa crushed his by the way he treated him. We better pray Torres stays fit for the rest of the season.

[Zapater]

In blunt I'm well pleased. I hated the way that he looked disgusted when he was substituted. It's like he looked in the mirror every night and practised an expression which would make him look most unpleasant then continually do it when he was subbed off and just about threw his toys out the cot every time. I don't know who he thinks he is, but no one at Liverpool is guaranteed a starting place for sure, especially when they played as he did.
