WTF?

I know he's ready for the knackers yard, but he's better than that.

Looking for a last big payday, eh PSB?
 
Good luck to him, if it happens.
If it's that or Leicester, then I don't blame him.
No offence to Leicester, but he can make an impact over there, whereas he's unlikely to for a Championship club.

Wonder whether it'd interfere with his international career and how much the deal is worth to Spurs?
 
I'm just glad Keane looks to be on his way.

If I see him in another match just stood around barking orders at players grrrrrrrrrrrr.

He would of been a legend at Spurs had he not run off to Liverpool, can see why 'Arry brought him back as we needed players in Jan 09 but Keane is finished and the sooner he is out of the club I love the better.
 
Wonder how much we can sting the Yanks for with this deal? What is Keane worth? I reckon £6m, anymore would be super!
 
We'd be lucky to get £5million in my opinion, he's 31 so there is no sell on value for him and he hasn't been in good form for about 3 years.

Just getting him off the wage bill will help.
 
If we use Bentley as part of the supposed deal for Samba, then we would be a little light on the right wing...
 
I'd rather play one of our kids, frankly, but Levy might see £££££s and Redknapp would probably see a chance to ingratiate himself further with the England mob.
Wouldn't put it past them.
 
The Galaxy picking up Keane is 100% reliant on getting another team to pick up Juan Pablo Angel. They're allotted three designated player spots, Beckham, Donovan, and Angel occupy those spots. Donovan and Beckham are leading the league in goals and assists respectively. Juan Pablo, on the other hand has been nothing short of useless in his few months at the Galaxy.
 
Tbh honest the term 'designated player' is a new one on me, I looked at your list of 3 and thought, foriegn player rule???....then I thought, no, don't be an imbecile smart...Donovans a yank, and there'd be no MLS if it wasn't for foriegn hasbeens...sorry!, players <whistle>, so I had to look it up.

The Premier League clubs would go out of business...starting with Citeh! :D
 
I'll wish him well when he goes.
He may have made a major mistake with his move to Liverpool, but he still scored over 100 goals for us and he didn't do anything sneaky, like running down his contract.
