I think that Berba and Keane share equal importance, Keane seems like a true gent, and has stepped in and skippered a young squad, which is no mean feat. He seems to be very welcoming, as has been shown by helping people like Hutton settle in, I think a players dressing room influence can be underestimated by some. Therefore, I feel that Keane is just as important as Berba, especially as sometimes it seems that Dimi has a negative attitude which can harm morale. Also, Keane isn't too far behind in terms of ability and goalscoring prowess. As for Bent, best 3rd choice striker we could wish for, deserves more starts, he has pace to burn and scores goals.

Berba 4, Keane 4, Bent 2, to us, but that's because we have them all, at other clubs, their value would increase to them, especially Bent, at most clubs in the prem, Bent would be a 6.

While our three strikers are in the news I would like to ask posters these two questions.
a) If you had 10 units of 'worth to Tottenham' to allocate between Bent, Keane and Berbatov how would you do it?
b) If you had 10 units of 'worth to other clubs' to allocate between Bent, Keane and Berbatov how would you do it?
My answers would Bent 2 Keane 3 Berbatov 5
and Bent 2 Keane 4 Berbatov 4

Does this have to divided by PI or can I use a logarithmic formula to equate outcome :shrug:

Well I'm glad Petyr has put the correct stats down - Berbs has outperformed Keane in both seasons he's been here in terms of goals and assists.

I would also add his link up play has led to more goals than Keane's too - quite often Berbs will be crucially involved in a move that leads o a goal - and while there are no stats that I know of, i'm absolutely convinced he'd outperform Keane on that one too

He's also proved to be better penalty taker - had Berbs been taking the pens there's a very good chance we'd have beaten West Ham and AFC away this season and our league position would have looked a lot nicer

Berbs , and this is subjective obviously, is a much better player to watch aesthetically, and is technically superior to Keane in many ways. He can also play the lone striker far more effectivel

BTW yes I do rate Keane as well as Berbs - they are both Spurs legends for me and I want them both to stay
