Guess who Liverpool play in the last game of the league. Thats right spurs. Now just imagine that liverpool need to win their last game to win the title and up steps Robbie to break their hearts. Could it happen

Is there any fee mentioned yet. Surely Liverpool will lose money on Keane?

Nope. If Liverpool are in a position to win the title on the last day, I'll be shocked.

£15m, rising to £19m with add ons according to bbc.

Given the 20.3m paid included add ons they reckon it has the potential to be about equal

19m including addons

Reina has played up top in the past. Id rather have him there than Robbie.

Babel Ngog Kuyt Gerrard El Zhar all alternatives for up top, Nemeth back from loan in a couple of weeks too.

The more I think about it the more frustrated I get. It really beggars belief. And reading that list just makes it worse. I think we are fucked anyway, but if Torres breaks down again, which is very possible, we might as well wind it up for the year.

Rafa, you're a strange strange man.

Stalin · February 02, 2009, 05:12:38 PM

Better than the Robbie Keane we have seen since August, for sure.

Well it would be pure madness by Keane if he did as he would be throwing away a league winners medal. It would be a bizarre situation if it came to pass.

Just like Keane proved to be.

Listen if Torres or Gerard gets injured, we are fecked. It wouldn't matter a dot if Keane, Voronin or Tevez was playing. Those two will and have carried the team.

Torres is unreplaceable, if he had been fit all season, we could be 7-10 points clear. Did keane do anything to fill the void? Did he f**k. He cost us points if anything with his pussy footing in front of goal. Destined to be a big fish in a small pond.

No - one questioned his role in the move. I doubt a gun was put to his head to sign. He could have flat out not signed the contract with spurs but he choose. He may never have played again this season but at least he would have showed character and resolve. No another move for a player who has repatedly moved throughout his career.

Good one. It's a league title thats there to be won, not the Carling Cup. Nemeth, Ngog, Kuyt and Babel won't do much.

what a joke

AZOffaly · February 02, 2009, 05:21:28 PM

That's harsh bingobus. I have more respect for a player that moves to play than a lad who is content to pick up a salary and splinters on his arse at the same time. The Keane signing was always odd, because he is best as a link man, and Liverpool have Gerrard that takes that space, even if he is not a similar player.

He was the missing piece of the wrong jigsaw, and I feel sorry for him. (In a football sense, not in a monetary way

)

So you think he should have sat on the bench for the rest of the season and just picked up his wage check....

Jesus if he done that everyone would be saying he is only in it for the money,I think he done the right thing its obvious he just wants to play and if he wasn't going to get on the Liverpool team he was right to go back to Spurs..
