Tottenham Hotspur's Irish striker Robbie Keane (left) will go into tomorrow’s Premier League game against Fulham with a plank of just 1 point to beat in the FTBL system.

Keane, whose score has suffered lately (he has dropped approximately 60 rating points in the last 3 games), has 102.29 points at the moment. At Spurs, he has dropped behind England internationals Peter Crouch (120.5 points) and Jermaine Defoe (107.48 points), who score a lot more often these days.

In the FTBL ranking of all Irish players, Keane, who used to sit at the top, has also lost his leadership to Aston Villa defender Richard Dunne (115.63 points).

In tomorrow’s game Keane would need to spend more time than he has lately on the pitch and score to have any chance of boosting his FTBL score and moving up the ranking.
