A piece from everyones favourite Spanish journo

Robbie Keane’s omission from the Liverpool squad to face Chelsea at Anfield this afternoon has sparked a flurry of rumours and prompted many of you to get in touch asking me what I know…. RedEric writes: "Guillem, is Keane signing for Spurs now he's out of the squad for Chelsea...why did Rafa sign him then? The rumour is that there could be a swap deal with Spurs today. Heard anything?" Thanks to everyone who has been in touch - and keep your questions, comments and rumours coming in - but the first thing that must be said is that, with the clock ticking down fast on the January transfer window, things can move very quickly and any situation as it appears at the moment can change in the blink of an eye and deals are being proposed and advanced all over the place as you read this.However, at the moment I’ve got the impression that Robbie Keane has been left out of the Liverpool squad to face Chelsea this afternoon because he has simply had enough of being left on the bench and started to believe that he may be better off leaving the club. With a game of such importance as this afternoon’s, Benitez plainly cannot risk including a player who has one eye on the exit door.According to sources at Spurs, Daniel Levy has already approached Liverpool with a view to taking Robbie Keane back to White Hart Lane and the Tottenham chairman has even suggested that he would allow Bale and Bentley to feature in an exchange. Liverpool, however, have said they are not interested in either player.A lot of you have been commenting on the wisdom of spending £20 million on Robbie Keane and asking ‘why did Rafa spend so much money on him if he wasn’t going to use him.’ The thing that needs to be understood – and is at the core of the current contract negotiations – is that Rafa Benitez did not have control over how funds were allocated: in other words, he did not sanction the spending of £20 million on Robbie Keane. That doesn’t mean Rafa never wanted the player, but it does mean that he may never have spent that much. And while he may have only been willing to sign him for a smaller fee, it now places Benitez in a very difficult position if he sells him for any less than the £20 million Liverpool paid for him and the club is seen to have made a loss. Benitez will be held responsible for underselling a player who has surprised many at the club – including players and technical staff – who had expected a great deal more from the Republic of Ireland forward. That means, if Liverpool do decide to sell Robbie Keane, it is going to take a very interesting offer from someone and it will probably only involve a straight cash deal, rather than a player swap.

The joke thing is,I knew about Keane not being in the squad like yesterday morning. I thought it was a joke though.We'll fully know if he's not at Anfield. Surely they could find him sitting in the stands?Everything seems to suggest what i posted before is true unless Sky find him at the game.

[LS]

[Guest LucaPiano]

lmao, sorry guysyoure heart musta of sunk 10 atlantic oceans when u read that.

[Duzza]

surely man realises he is not gonna get a good reception if he comes back... if he loved liverpool so much why would he even be prepared to quit there

He is getting sold and told he is not wanted. Would you stay?

lol if i was playing for tottenham i would never willingly leave, i'd play for free lol

[Guest LucaPiano]

Never gave the lad a chance, no doubt he has the potential to be a top consistant performer like schnieder, trochowski in germany but he was never going to be that gold star, he's not that unique but he can be something good

[Guest LucaPiano]

lol if i was playing for tottenham i would never willingly leave

i bloody would, knowing you got ledley king lookin at your back side for 90mins

[Black.]

TBH i rate Bent

Zoop he cant stop scoring

[Action Dan]

if we sign him for less than 10million a BARGAIN a penny over is a JOKE AND OVER-PRICED.WHY DONT WE LOOK TO EUROPE FOR EXCITING NEW TALENTS WHY IS HARRY STICKIN TO THE PREMIERSHIP.

Because you are in a relegation battle and taking a risk on Carlos Kickaball could backfire.Though signing back players who've left is laughable.

[Duzza]

lol if i was playing for tottenham i would never willingly leave

i bloody would, knowing you got ledley king lookin at your back side for 90mins

Tottenham Hotspur Face Point DeductionSpurs may be made to pay the price for fielding a player illegally...Tottenham Hotspur Face Point DeductionTottenham Hotspur are in real danger of having points docked for illegally playing Wilson Palacios in their Premier League clash against Bolton Wanderers yesterday.The Honduran international was serving a ban for his former club Wigan Athletic, and there are rumours that because he played in yesterday's game, legal action should be taken against Spurs.The suggestion is that if Palacios was still a Wigan player, his ban would have finished on 31st January, but because he moved to White Hart Lane, the ban should see him cup tied for Carling Cup and FA Cup games, meaning his ban should be carried over these games.Therefore, his fixture list should read:Wednesday Jan 21 2009 Burnley CC (A) (cup tied)Saturday Jan 24 2009 Manchester United FA (A) (cup tied)Tuesday Jan 27 2009 Stoke City (H) (suspended)Saturday Jan 31 2009 Bolton Wanderers (A) (suspended)Sunday Feb 08 2009 Arsenal (H) (ban lifted)This news was revealed by a Wigan fans' website, and it is not known whether the Premier League will take legal action against Spurs, but what seems certain is that Palacios should have been made unavailable to Harry Redknapp and therefore should not have been played in the 3-2 defeat against Bolton yesterday.

hmm what u lot think about this?

[Necksta]

LMAO.
