Rafa: Keane is here to stay
February 03, 2009
"RAFAEL Benitez believes Liverpool are back in the title race after beating Chelsea 2-0 - and thinks striker Robbie Keane will still be at the club when the transfer window closes.
The Anfield boss saw his side beat Chelsea for the second time this season to leapfrog past the visitors back into second spot in the English Premier League.
Liverpool are two points behind Manchester United having played a game more.
Keane's omission from the squad prompted speculation that he was on his way back to Tottenham, while after the match fans held a demonstration against co-owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett, who watched the game from the directors' box.
The Americans will try to revive Benitez's contract talks and attend a board meeting today.
On the pitch, Fernando Torres scored two late goals, his first since October, with Chelsea's Frank Lampard sent off in the second half, a decision which helped swing the game Liverpool's way.
Benitez said :'I think Robbie Keane will be here when the transfer window shuts.
'He was left out because we were considering all our good players and who we needed for this game. It was only a decision based on this match and our requirements.
'I have not seen any new offers, I don't know whether the club has had any offers.
'I have spoken to Robbie, he was there in the dressing room beforehand, and we also spoke afterwards and we were just talking about the game.
'He was pleased because the team had won. He is part of my squad, I would expect him to be in my Champions League squad.
'Everything is if, if, if. He is here, he is our player. That's it.
Ps: i stay think he is a gd player.....
and lets us just hope tat we will have a NEW OWNER soon...
