    Berbatov out! Sell him to Keane for 5 million in Jan!

    Keane is buying players now?

    He has an incredible touch all right - but I wouldn't agree that standing virtually stationary equates to positioning oneself.

    Jeez, we must have come up against some sh1te defences over the last two years if a stationary player managed 46 goals in two seasons...;)



    He scored 2 vs Arsenal, 3 vs Chelsea and 1 vs ManYoo in those two seasons, he scored goals under pressure (free kick vs West Ham to equalise at 3-3 when we went on to win 4-3 at Upton Park, peno vs Chelsea in the Carling Cup final, late goal away to PSV in UEFA Cup to bring game into extra time)

    He's just started his career at United with two of the three hardest league games they'll face (on paper anyway) all season, he's not fully fit (due to his own actions in pre-season I might add) and he's playing in an under-strength and under-performing United team.

    But yeah, he'll do fcuk all for them based on those 180 minutes...

    Well that's what managers generally do isn't it?

    I was implying that he meant Robbie was buying him cause he misses him.
    Just to help around the house like.

    Watched him away versus City last year live. He was lazy, no movement. Keane's movement busied the defense enough that he would generally find himself single marked and able to receive the ball. Once he gets it, he's magic of course. But I stand by what I saw firsthand.

    In one game?

    In one game?

    When one game confirms everything you have suspected or been told then yeah, I find it compelling evidence. That been said, he will have Ronaldo. Rooney and Tevez around him - so his limitations shouldn't be a problem.
