'tis a silly place
said today he will leave Elland Road if he doesnt get more starts. If by Christmas Robbie fancies a move, we should jump in there at the Winter-deadline. :D
 
Dont think Keane wants to come to OT after what Fergie said couple of years ago.
 
Who knows ? Ferguson may not even be here by then... ;) Seriously though, SAF has worked with plenty of people he doesnt like. If he promised Keane a fair amount of games with the worlds greatest team Im sure he could come round.
 
How much would Keane cost??.He is a class player but everybody knows the plc.
 
Would he be prepared to sit on the bench? I'am not sure. At least we'd have a Keane in the Irish squad...
 
as far as i'm concerned, and thats not so far, they can keep the mini-jimmy.
 
He is a quality player, and very young too. He is gonna be a star in the next few years, his time is coming. We'll have to see who he'll spend that time with.

I doubt we'll deal with Leeds again anytime soon.
 
Keane wouldnt cost more than 8m, as thats how much the Sheep paid for him. If anything they should be letting him off for cheaper. Great player imo. He wouldnt have to spend much time on the bench, just a shame it will never happen.
 
He'll have togo to Spurs or Sunderland to be guaranteed 1st team football cos he wont get it at OT.
 
I'd love to say he's great, but I don't think that there's an awful lot of real talent there. I don't think he'd be good enough for United. I don't think he really looks a top class striker...and I don't see the potential, I can't see him getting much better than he already is. From an Irish perspective, I hope I'm wrong about him. Clinton Morrison looks to me to have a lot more potential than Robbie

he's a bit of a lost player, not a pure striker nor a complete half-striker, and one whose goals are often so cheeky or stylish that they should count twice. i also doubt how prolific his scoring might be in the future. but it seems a decent record at the moment. something to be said for aesthetics though?!
 
Hes a loverly player and hes going to be a great player,he needs more playing time,he was fantastic at Coventry,why do you think Mr Lippi shelled out 13 mill for him?Hes going to be world class,if ye cant see that....Hes only 21 for chrissake
 
if both Keane and Gudjohnson cost the same, which you of them you think we should have? Teamtalk has just reported abt the 7mil negotiation with Chelsea, though I find it hard to believe ( defender and GK looks to be Fergie's main concern currently IMO ).

With so little time to sort things out and so many bastards out there wanting our money I wouldn't believe a word SAF says about transfer priorities. :D
