Keane on the bench again!!

[Condex]

Robbie Keane is on the bench again, even with Kanoute out injured. Its a bit worrying thay our two main strikers Keane and Morrison are not first choice for their clubs.

[eirebhoy]

Keane didn't play well when he started in midweek and Defoe was always going to start. Mido scored btw. Reid and Kelly started. 1-1 atm.

[eirebhoy]

Another goal for Mido, 2-1.

[tricky_colour]

Keane has scored !(but that's Roy not Robbie!).

Robbie is going to find it tough at Spurs, this Mido guy
has scored a lot of goals in the past I believe, and he
doesn't seem to have a problem scoring in the Premiership

.

[tricky_colour]

Keane has scored (this time it was Robbie).
Andy Reid put him through I believe.

[Metrostars]

Meanwhile, Robbie comes on and scores for Spurs.

[eirebhoy]

Reid hit the woodwork a minute before Keane scored.

Yeah, Reid set up Keane's goal.

[pete]

Its probably to Irealnds advantage if Robbie only coming off the bench as he'll still be getting plenty of game time btu also be nice & fresh for internationals.

[tricky_colour]

Reid had a excellent debut according to a BBC report.

"who along with Mido had an excellent debut".

[eirebhoy]

I think that goal means Robbie makes the BBC's top scorer table:

His 11th of the season. Not bad considering he was injured at the start of the season and isn't a regular.

Supposedly a superb goal too.

I dont think it does alot of his goals were in the cups, and that bbc table is only for league goals/

hehe, no its not. Henry hasn't got 20 league goals, RVN has closer to 2 than 12. ;)

BTW, Robbie has 5 assists in the league awell.

Keane winds up Reid... (http://www.spurs.co.uk/article.asp?hlid=253949)

Cheeky

:p

[tricky_colour]

As far as league goals go Robbie is joint 12th (of twelve),
another goal and he would be joint tenth (of 3).
According to:-

(select england).

[eirebhoy]

The Beeb have Mounir El Hamdaoui as the the Spurs player on 11 goals:

Henry had 16 league goals and 4 Champions League goals, RVN is have an absymal season with 4 league goals. Ashton and Taylor shoun't be on that list anyhow. Keane is doing OK, been a stop-start season. Again.

The Ananova chart is more accurate

[eirebhoy]

RVN is have an absymal season with 4 league goals.
In fairness, he's only played 9 times. :)

[1MickCollins]

In fairness, he's only played 9 times. :)

Exactly, he is having an abysmal season.

[dr_peepee]

The Sky sports one takes in every game, including internationals. So according to this he's averaging a goal every other game he's played this season.

In 29 games including 2 as a sub he's scored 15 goals. Not a bad oul' season really.

Mido was fantastic at Ajax, but he was never the full shilling. He once paid a youth player to show up at a press conference for him and he threw a pair of scissors at Zlatan Ibrahimovic in the changing room. If he can keep it together at Spurs then he might be something, but he's been at 5 clubs now and he's only 21.

[Slash/ED]

I wouldn't read anything into Keane being on the bench, Jol seems to love rotating the strikers. Defoe was 'dropped' alst week and not for the first time either.
