Speculation Robbie Keane

[Lako42]

Dear Lako

Yes as Beighton comments - I too was looking at the wider picture and guess that Keene is at a point in his career when overall lifestyle is more important than the respective merits of the Championship and the MLS.

As someone Leicester born and bred but who has visited California, I'm going to have to concede that if i had young kids then Leicester wouldn't win that contest with LA. It may be uprooting them to another country but they sort of speak the same language - tho' there are quite a lot of Spanish as a first language speakers - but overall there's going to be better leisure, probably better opportunities and easier money for the player himself.

Dear Redditch

What on earth makes you think Keane would move to Leicester?

Dear sirs.

Robbie Keane once scored against Leicester. I cried.

Now he prefers Los Angeles California. Hollywood is also in California. They have golden stars on the streets. Robbie prefers this to the golden mile of Melton Road.

Now he has made me cry for a second time.

Oh well. Leicester City Football Club will just have to find someone with something to prove who is hungry instead.

Yours faithfully

Robbie Keane once scored against Leicester.

He's scored four times against Leicester.

See! A further reason why we should move on. Who would do that to a club they supported as a boy.

I thought he supported LA Galaxy as a boy? In which case, the move would make sense

 

[Kingy_85]

Was he at the game then?

From what I've been reading, the MLS transfer window shuts at midnight today.

Sven just doesn't seem fussed about sorting a striker out though, hopefully get one in time for Christmas.

Have you even been reading the Mercury for the past 3 weeks? There's been an interview every other day saying he is after several strikers but has been put to ransom/is waiting on/has missed out on several targets.

Dear Redditch

I wasn't factoring in to my comparison any thoughts that Keane might be considering settling in Beaumont Leys and sending his kids to the local comp (notthat there is anything wrong with Beaumont Leys - obviously).

I was comparing the respective opportunities for Keane and the family keane in moving to Southern California and the alternatives if he signed for us.

Naturally, I am convinced that if he did move (transfer not necessarily habitation) to Leicester then he would appreciate that it is a very wonderful city and regret that he had not spent his entire career wearing the shirt.

There is, it's a shithole. I know, I live there.

SSN are saying that LA Galaxy have agreed a fee with Spurs.

Juan Pablo Ángel, the player LA Galaxy would have to drop in order for Keane to come in was reportedly not at their training session today. All these reports are pointing towards a deal being sorted in time.

Yet another one we miss out on.....

Yet another one we miss out on.....

Do you really think he was ever going to come to us?

 

[Filthy Rich]

Do you really think he was ever going to come to us?

Yeh, we should've kidnapped his family or forced him to sign with a gun held to his head.....

 

[Nottingham Fox]

Do you really think he was ever going to come to us?

We'll never know.

 

[Motown Fox]

I've heard that if we add to the deal a years supply of Guinness and Macky as his personal assistant that he would change his mind and come to City

source?

Quite clear if he moves to LA, then its about money, not the quality of the football he wants to play. He's 31 he wants a big pay day, just so he can stack up his not inconsiderable millions already in the bank a little bit higher, if thats his sole motivation we are better off without him.
