Realistic Transfer Targets January 2011

Wonder what has changed his mind.

 

He didn't want to come to us in the Summer, yet wants to come to us now.

 

Snubbed us then, so why not now.

 

Presumably thought he'd get a game at Spurs, and thought we'd be utter shite.

In a nutshell. He thought he could do better but he can't.

Anyway there's no chance Keane is coming here if this is true on any level:

West Ham agree salary with Keane

December 30, 2010

 

By Harry Harris, Football Correspondent

 

West Ham have agreed weekly wages of £65,000 with Robbie Keane, but their bid to sign the striker is stalling due to negotiations with Tottenham over a loan fee.

Any sort of pacey forward with half a brain that Pardew has faith in would be handy. At the moment it's quite clear he's fuck all faith in anyone but Nolan and Carroll, and only wants to use Ranger as an impact sub.

The lad is out of contract at the end of the season, they're already worried about him being pounced on by English teams ala Fabregas, Merida, Pacheco so it would seem strange for them to give him the opportunity of experiencing first team football and getting a taste that will ultimately just make him more tempted to leave.

Split on Keane.

 

On one side I think he could flourish given an extended run of games and the chance of a partnership with AC. On the other side he could be a huge disapointment and going for someone completely different might be a better idea.

 

He would bring alot of experience, which we are definately missing right now up front. He has more of a footballing brain than our entire front line too, I'm not saying that is hard to match or beat though.

 

Babel is a decent shout although I think he could be more of a gamble than Keane. We need someone that we will be consistent and reliable so the likes of AC and Ranger can come through at the right pace. Our budget might give us problems finding that kind of player.
