Robbie Keane left Spurs and joined Liverpool. After 6 months of frustration and few goals, he returned to Spurs. Yet he is loved by all, and his contributions back at White Hart Lane are celebrated and analyzed and the subject of headlines. Fans love him because they think he is a fan as well. He seems like he is. His boyhood team was Liverpool, and fans love the fact that he even had a boyhood team -- like them -- and that he is not some sort of football playing demigod or robot. It's a connection like that provides the benefit of the doubt. I'm the same way. I want Keane to succeed; I want him to win and be happy and bring glory to Spurs. Not because he's that stylish. It's because he's a fan.
