Jurgen Klinsmann the head coach of the U.S national team and an ex-Tottenham striker strongly believes that Robbie Keane is extremely professional and this quality of his makes him an ideal role model in the modern game for all footballers.

He has also been consistently jetting across the Atlantic to turn out for Ireland. Despite of his age and legs that have been ageing he has scored 53 times in 84 regular season games since he has arrived in the USA from Tottenham in august of 2011. Jurgen is totally astonished and awe struck by how his fellow mate has continued to stay at the top level and maintain his position.

He has established himself the League MVP front runner in 2014 where he scored a total of 19 goals and 14 assists in 29 games. Jurgen believes that all the young players both from the U.S as well as others should be following him and his lead. He has also praised him to the US Soccer whom he told that Keane was a gem and an outstanding athlete who is fit to be the role model for all the players that are there.

Jurgen says Keane is a player who always gives his hundred percent. He is the kind who even when goes to the field for training will consider the training to be the real match and gives everything that he has. He is a person who is totally dedicated and very professional. He helps and teaches the younger players to become that professional. He is a player who at the same time also plays for the national team. He keeps flying back and forth for a game. He is a special player who can play a match tonight and be back with galaxy tomorrow and play another game there.
