Already have Cudicini. Maybe they'll buy Kaboul back from Pompey. But weird transfer. Already have Defoe, should look for a different type of striker, since the Keane-Defoe didn't work particularly well before. Bent have been scoring goals, but seems like Redknapp don't trust him. Keane can virtually be called a flop. biggrin.gif Wonder what's up with that. Half a season, and he's shipped out. He wasn't Benitez's choice?

As for Arshavin.. unlucky if the move didn't work out. Zenit have really played tough to keep transfer from happening.. weakening their bargaining position every window since his value drop and drop.

Still, Bent, Defoe and Keane.. all didn't work for them before in combination, not to mention with Pav too they didn't click. They need Berbatov back. laugh.gif

Keane no a flop? Bought for 20m, and Rafa preferred Ngog to have on the bench. Maybe he just didn't fit in Rafa's safety first style. 2 DM, one striker. But he should not have bought him in the first place if that was the case. Wonder if there's something more to it.. a bust up maybe?

SAF was surprised Keane went for 20m.. guess he was right, again. Wouldn't pay more than 500k for him he said when Keane was younger. laugh.gif

Think Spurs would do well once they gel. Good players, on paper, but it's different on the pitch, as Liverpool found out. Palacios(?) seem like a good buy. Not sure why they bought Defoe back. He would get them goals, but hard to find the right partners for him. And now they go and bring back Keane.. with Bent there too, and Pav, they all can't form good partnerships, although Pav-Keane haven't try yet.
