More on the Robben Scenario

Is he unsettled? Is he just injured?
Update: Barcelona now seem keen on the pacey winger too. Rijkaard as the gaffer in the tansfer talks couldn't hurt either. On the other hand Tottenham Hotspur have the highly regarded Martin Jol. Camp Nou have had quite a special relationship with the Dutch Eridivisie for going on a decade now. Early days at Barca showed Franck and Ronald DeBoer, Michael Reiziger, Phillip Cocu, Boudewijn Zenden, and Patrick Kluivert on the same squad as well as the Dutch side. That surpasses the Arsenal/France team of Viera, Pires, Henry, and Wiltord for National side players on one team. Upon further thought, Liverpool are holding four players from the Spain side: Jose Reina, Sanz Luis Garcia, Xabi Alonzo, and Fernando Morientes. I suppose we need to sign two more to take the title.
