Coleman gives Robbie reason to be cheerful for 2014

Robbie Keane took a trip down memory lane at the weekend but his focus is firmly set on the future.

He may be in his 34th year yet the striker with the highest number of caps and goals for his country is in fine fettle, having had his troublesome Achilles operated on four weeks ago.

The recuperation period that followed his surgery has brought some positives to Keane, as it allowed him visit the club, Crumlin United, where he first began to blossom as a 14-year-old.
