Robbie Keane to MLS next year??
So I was just reading a couple articles how apparently Keane's wife wants him to go to the MLS after his current loan to Celtic ends this summer.
http://www.eatsleepsport.com/celtic/...k-1038877.html
Personally I would LOVE to see him stay at Celtic but from what I hear, Spurs really want him back. But it would be pretty crazy to see Keane in MLS if his wife does get her way
I'll believe it.... when he's here (which is 99% never)
///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\
He would tear this league up...
I think Spurs are probably willing to let him go to get his salary off their books...they're having problems splitting playing time between Defoe, Crouch and Pavlyuchenko - I think adding Keane back into that mix just makes a difficult situation more difficult. I'm not sure how much longer Keane is uncontract for, but he's still a sellable player...they won't let him walk for free and MLS doesn't pay transfer fees.
think about this though.....
why would he (or his agent) even talk about coming to this league in the middle of the CBA, etc etc problems?
clearly the comments were not based on anything more than "One day my wife would like to live in LA"
///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\
Isn't he really good friends with Robbo? If so, we can count TFC out of the running.

so they ASKED her about America and she said 'sure, that could be fun'.Former Miss Ireland contestant Claudine Keane would like her other half to follow in the footsteps of David Beckham though, but heading across the Atlantic to the USA.
Claudine told the Herald: "Would I like to see him play for a team like LA Galaxy? Yes, I would love that, but it changes all the time."
Now it's news somehow? pffffft

exactly...silly thread.
If you know your football, then you'll know he's had a nomad history jumping from club to club. Spurs are likely going to sell him....it's possible but unlikely at this point.
I know Keane pretty well, and I know he'll go where the work pays him to go.
but the article is a joke because it's the reporter speculating that Keane would go to MLS, and doing so by asking his model wife about the idea of moving to LA.
///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\
Sorry mate but Keano's history as a nomad has nothing to do with his tongue-flapping wife talking to the media....
Robbie has MANY other options before even considering the MLS.
let's break down this whole bullshit article:
Keane in US link
^ that's a stretch. there's no link at all.

^ okay, the date is probably honest.
Robbie Keane's wife says she would like her husband to move to MLS in America following his loan spell at Celtic.
^ that's not what she said.
The Republic of Ireland international admits he is enjoying his spell at Celtic and his future appears to be up in the air, with Keane due to head back to Tottenham at the end of the season.
^ He will go where he is paid to go. No mention of MLS
Former Miss Ireland contestant Claudine Keane would like her other half to follow in the footsteps of David Beckham though, but heading across the Atlantic to the USA.
Claudine told the Herald: "Would I like to see him play for a team like LA Galaxy? Yes, I would love that, but it changes all the time."
^ The Reporter asked her (a model and former Miss Ireland)
if she's like to move to LA, and she said 'Yes, BUT.....'
Hardly the 'US LINK' the headline states.
She added: "People may criticise his decision to go and play for Celtic but this really ticked a box for him. It's something he always wanted to do and I couldn't be more proud of him."
^ The 'something he always wanted to do' comment is about playing for Celtic, not MLS.

you said the magic words... "model wife"... so i had to get on Google image and take a look..
since my row at BMO is where all the wives sit, I hope TFC signs this wonderful player.
she is something hot mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
hahah... yeah, I'm not sure what my 'knowing my footy' has to do with anything.Sorry mate but Keano's history as a nomad has nothing to do with his tongue-flapping wife talking to the media....

Have you gone out with beers with him?
Do you hang with him when you cross the pond?
He call you up or you him?
yes yes and yes.
everyone's a comedian.
///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\
Spurs want him back now?
WTF is that shit? Theyre just loaning him out now on a carousel.
Anyway, he would tear this league to bits.
And he is basically my dream TFC player. An Irish striker.

His wife seams like a bit of an idiot, who would criticise a 4-5 month loan move to a club as big as Celtic when he would have just sat on the bench at spurs anyway? It was made clear to Keane that he was not going to be first choice at spurs and that if he wanted to have much match time he would have to go elsewhere. As far as I am aware no other clubs were in for him, his move to Celtic suited all parties, how people can criticise him for it is crazy.
I'm sure people were criticizing him, because there will always be someone to criticize everything a pro athlete does (especially when it involves an old firm team). I wouldn't say she's an idiot though - she probably heard more info about it that we have (being guy's wife and all).
speaking of his wife...
///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\
she is quite pretty but I am unsure about the hip bone protruding so much on her right hand side, she looks a bit skinny for me, I am just being super picky though.I'm sure people were criticizing him, because there will always be someone to criticize everything a pro athlete does (especially when it involves an old firm team).

Here she is without those pesky pants. Not much meat on her at all.
she looks a bit plastic-ish and a little on skinny side but eh
“Years have gone by and I’ve finally learned to accept myself for who I am: a beggar for good football.
I go about the world, hand outstretched, and in the stadiums I plead: ‘A pretty move, for the love of God.’
And when good football happens, I give thanks for the miracle and I don’t give a damn which team or country performs it.”
-Eduardo Galeano

I prefer a little more meat on my woman...but she is nice looking.
yeah, she's attractive. there's no denying that.
(and I mean 'attractive', not just 'skinny and blond)

Ha! Ha! That was posted when the rumours of Robbie going to Celtic started…
These guys (and their wives) all have huge egos that need fed…where is Robbie going…Spurs won't let him play for anyone in London…where's he gonna play…every game? Bolton…Wigan…Burnley…New York…LA…never say never Parky…even 99%.

I am asking a serious question.
You stated you know him well.
How do you know him?
I know his professional history well.
again
