Tottenham assistant boss Gus Poyet admits striker Robbie Keane has always been one of his favourites.

Poyet said: "It's important to have those players at the club - that is why Robbie is probably one of the favourites.

"I know he had the chance sometime to get paid more at another club or whatever.

"When he arrived at this club he was young and already played for four or five teams, he needed to settle down. He found a house and knew this was a club for him to stay.

"It took him a while to win but he deserved it, the most probably. Even if you score 100 goals like him, winning a trophy is something totally different."
