Following in the footsteps of Jermain Defoe and Pascal Chimbonda, Robbie Keane made his second debut for Totthenham Hotspurs. And although it did not have a fairytale ending , Spurs still claimed a point against local rivals Arsenal and the Spurs fans will no doubt have been happy to see Keano’s return! It has been a topsy turvy year for the Irish man that saw him move from White Heart lane to the team he followed as a kid, Liverpool. After winning the Carling Cup with spurs, it seemed like the next best step. But, as it turns out, captaining a very talented Spurs team is where he belongs!

In terms of looks, the cleats are very similar. The Strike two colorway is a little darker, but not that much more noticable.
