I think most of us accept despite their limitations, Defoe and Crouchie will be at the club next season.
So given links to Dzeko and other such strikers, who do you think is most likely to leave? Robbie Keane, or Super Pav.
I'm sure in January we'd have all had one conclusion, that Pav's days were numbered. Then Keano is sent on loan, and suddenly Roman is given his chance and proves to be a hit at a vital part of the season.
Of course there is no ignoring the contribution Robbie Keane has made to the club, over 100 goals, a great unique partnership with Berba, and some fantastic goals (personal favourite the Blackburn goal).
However, since the start of the season and arguably toward the end of the season before, he looked a shadow of the creative force and goalscorer I'd known and loved. So will Harry share the same opinion, and sale Robbie?
Then we come to Pav, redemption seemed to come with every touch after his goal against Leeds. Yet Harry remained tentative in post match interviews, especially about a previous lack of effort. His fantastic run of goalscoring scored ended, but Harry continued to start him over Crouch, and we of course won 2 vital matches against Chelsea and Arsenal.
Yet Pav missed a number of decent chances in the Chelsea match especially. Given Harry's past negativity, and his goals drying out at the end of the season, has he done enough for Harry to want him here next season or will he leave to Russia?
Interest is rumoured in both players, at similar prices, so who, if either will leave?
Opinions my fellow SC'ers. I personally, I think it depends on the offer we receive for either player. However if I had to call it, I'd say Pav, even though I'd rather Robbie went (sorry Keano fans, I do recognise his contribution).
I've ignored Eidur of course.. But blah the post was getting long and drawn our anyway, and if we can get him cheap, Viking power will be at a bargain price.
