Keane returns…

By: Drew | February 2nd, 2009

That’s right kids, the Liverpool flop has made his way back to White Hart Lane. This is probably the most bittersweet transfer of the season so far. As I am sure that he will be motivated to play well and sustain a solid first team spot after riding the bench for so long. I just can’t help but feel like Keane expects to be forgiven immediately.

here’s what the player said…

“It was a difficult decision to make to leave Tottenham in the summer,” he said. “It proved not to be the right move for me.

“I know some Spurs fans will feel I let them down by leaving but I can assure them I shall be giving my all for this club – this club has terrific fans and I want to repay them for all their support. We’ve got to get on and fight our way up that league table.”

So just because he admits that it was a bad decision all is forgiven right? I mean clearly he had his vision impaired by that fat pay check and the prospect of CL football. Clearly he thought he was too big for his britches… and by his poor goal scoring record at L’pool, obviously he was wrong. I’m not ready to totally forgive him, but at least his deal went a little more honestly than Judas Berbatov’s. I suppose I’ll give him a couple games to prove he’s really into helping us out. And with Defoe out indefinitely now(even though the club said it’d be 3 weeks), We could use Keano up front.

And in much, much more disappointing news, Tottenham have accepted a reported two bids for Giovani Dos Santos. Anyone who has read my posts before know that I really had high hopes for this kid. Reports say that Pompey are his most interested suitors, but a lot of talk about Wigan being the other team wanting him have surfaced too. While I am sad to see him go if he does, I would definitely understand. Harry hasn’t exactly been kind with Giovani’s amount of playing time. I wish him all the luck in the world if he leaves.

So three former Spurs players have returned, along with Carlo and Wilson as new faces. With today being the last day of the transfer window how do we all feel about our aquisitions? Are there any you think were a bad decision? And most importantly, What the FUCK ever happened with the Appiah signing? (I feel like their just sweeping it under the rug so we forget about it.)

We play the ARSEnal on Sunday, And if Keane were ever going to prove his worth this would be the game to do it in. Hopefully he’ll bang in a few goals in the derby and all will be forgiven. Until next time…

COYS!
