Spurs and Newcastle swap deal nonsense

Newspaper reports of a potential swap deal between Newcastle and Spurs are nonsense. Allegedly spurs and Newcastle are willing to trade Milner and Keane.

Keane as a replacement for Bellamy, well he seldom has his mouth shut that is just about where the similarities end. Milner, one bought for the future to leave to play a bit part at Spurs?

Where is the sense there then?

Milner has not made any sort of impact at Newcastle, but he is still young, why then would Newcastle be willing to trade Milner a player with loads of potential, for a player that is not as good as even the centre forwards unable to get a game in what had been a disappointing season at Newcastle.

The entire idea is I am afraid laughable.
