the only villa being bought by rafa will be a holiday home on the costa del sol
Yes keane hasnt been great, but when given a chance everybody knows what he can do, the goal against arsenal is a shining example. I've got more faith in Ngog doing something than Babel right now...
I think Rafa is getting back at rick parry, but in the worst possible way as it affects the team. This is suicide; Rafa wont sign a contract and is heading to Madrid in the summer.

Why the hell did we sell Robbie Keane back without giving the bloke a decent chance!!!
I have to say that I am bewildered by some of the decision made by Rafa Benitez, as a Liverpool fan. Im starting to dislike his antics and his ego...
If Fergie would have bought Keane, he would have been playing until he found the form on which he paid the money for. Rafa has played Robbie out of position and not allowed him enough time to gel and make good in the team. A poor poor decision and one that will come back and haunt us.
Just another thing that has ****** me off about Rafa over the last few weeks.

I'm with you one that. Anderson, while I agree that Keane going now was the right move, a lot of wrong moves have been made by Rafa with regard to him over the last few months. I can't believe that we have let a player of his quality become less than a bit part player.

Ill have some of the drugs your on plz.
Looking back reading it back isnt a good idea..
In terms of football Bent can score more goals than Martins. Martins is just too miss than hit
Im not that bother about Keano going, the pressure was too much for the lad, esp considering he wasnt actually wanted by the manager.I'd have liked to see keane in Gerrards current role, and Stevie moved out wide, and Kuyt put down.
It galls me that we are losing 5mill so quickly

Personally I think he's had enough chances to impress. Rather they give babel an opportunity now to play upfront. Can't say I will miss Keane at all.

Was Keane purchased by someone other than Rafa then?

Barclays Premier League
Liverpool v Tottenham, 16:00
will be interesting
I wonder what the bookies would give me on Utd and Liverpool being level on points on the last day of the season and Keane scoring for Tottenham and costing Liverpool the title.
There is some belief that he was effectively bought by Parry rather than Benitez

Vintage Parry
Anyway it's only going to be around a £3m loss. We only spent £19m on him (£1.3m was based on appearances which he wouldn't have met) and the fee Spurs are paying is closer to £16m.
that'll be the story, i think it's fair to say that rafa would rather have put an extra million into the bid for Barry but he would have been involved in the Keane choice.
