I know it would never ever happen and we really dont need him.But would you take keane for a year or two if we had the chance to sign him.What about robbie keane.

Robbie or Roy?
Neither. Don't really rate Robbie, he would be the kind of player Roy Evans would sign and I think there is enough in our midfield to do without Roy, as good a player as he still is.

I'd take Robbie, but not Roy - too much of an ego and in a position where we are strongest anyway.
Robbie Keane imo is an intelligent footballer who would score plenty of goals playing off Crouch, his record with Quinn was decent enough at international level.
I think he has a decent touch and movement off the ball as well.
He would imo improve our attack.

Yea, i quite like Robbie Keane. My brother is a spurs fan (idiot) and he often says he's good. So i think he would be a good investment maybe a tad older than what Rafa would be looking for but non the less i think he would be a good addition.

Robbie Keane has skill but he is not the type of striker that Rafa would like, he seems to play for himself, he would make a very awkward strike partner

Although we have seen it more often because he is scoring more often now.

Neither of them offer more than we already have.
Keano would not improve the midfield, and Robbie would not add anything worthwhile to the attack (in terms of the way Rafa likes to play).

Roy would be a total waste of wages, and Rob wouldn't get a game for us under Rafa.
Besides, I would rather p*ss on a pylon than sign Roy "B*stard" Keane.

I wouldn't lose sleep if we didn't take them and they performed brilliantly.

roy keane is past it and is not better than gerrard alonso hamann or sissoko and robbie keane is too inconsistant and can not settle anywhere wolves ,coventry ,inter milan ,leeds tottenham have proved this fact

I'd take Roy Keane all day long. Centre-back and central midfield cover all in one.I'm actually surprised that I'm the only onje sofar who feels this way. With Keane, Manure would have won at Benfica. Of that there is no doubt in my mind.
