    Presume you meant 80k? Just did a quick sum on the calculator and it's closer to 90k a week :eek: ffs.. I'd say the missis is well happy, heard she was pressing for a move to Californa.

    Robbie did us good but we need to ship him on. Good to see things moving. Must get a proven striker in. Would take Adebayor on loan for now..

    I kinda hoped he'd go to someone like Wolves and knock in 20 goals this season just to show how the Liverpool move wontl define his career but who is going to turn down 80k a week and be in the top 5 players in the league.

    Best of luck to him.

    Reports now saying Levy is trying to agree a 12 million pound fee to make the deal permanent at the end of the season.... That's a good price if he comes good this season, City paid £25m for him..

    Why do clubs always leave it so late?! If it goes through, spurs get 3 mill? I thought someone in the premier league would still pay 5 or 6 for robbie?

    Think the fee is around the £3.5m mark. Really hope it goes through, would do Robbie the world of good plus we'd be shifting out some deadwood.

    I really hope he does go, for his and our sake. He's not going to get much, if any, game time this season, and he needs to be playing regular football, even if it is in the US.

    The MSL has restrictions that only 3 players can be over a certain salary cap. Galaxy already have 3 so that would mean having to organise 2 last minute transfers. Bit unlikely ?

    Ok....

    is anyone concerned about the lack of anything?

    The narrower a man’s mind, the broader his statements.

    They were getting rid of Juan Pablo Angel to make way for Keane, I heard.

    123 - Since his debut, only two players (Lampard and Henry) have scored more goals in the Premier League than Robbie Keane. Hollywood

    From Opta. Thanks for the memories Robbie!

    Cya Robbie,
    Has been a good player for the club, its just a pity that the Liverpool move really ****ed everything up for him. Things were never the same for him since he returned.

    This has to be my favourite Robbie Keane Spurs moment.:)

    I'm happy for Keane. He's been a fantastic player for both club and country, and gets a lot of stick from people. No one can question his record though, and he has put in some amazing performances over the years. I'm glad he's going somewhere he might really shine, and i hope he enjoys himself.

    Keano! Keano! Keano! :)

    100% agree with you tippspur, people forget all the goals he scored for us and the amount of matches he won for us. Saying good riddance is total lack of respect IMO.

    Yep, could be a great learning experience for him and spurs. A few rumours online about Modric not playing against hearts. I have a feeling if he doesnt play he will be sold to chelsea. I think the Europa league will cup tie him for the CL.

    Watched the City game last night and individually I thought Caulker had a very decent game. Made plenty of challenges and was holding his own. He wouldn't have looked out of place in the City back 4. Of course Aguero came on, set up one and scored two. Amazing player. Another thing about Caulker and indeed the whole Swansea team is that they all looked very comfortable on the ball and dominated possession. One stat in the second half showed them with 54% and I think it was closer to 60% at half time.
