Robbie Keane said the aim is to get 'better and better' when he looked back on a campaign that saw the team record a successive fifth place finish. Of course, last season was considerably different from the one before. In season 2005-06 we played just 40 games and were able to place an almost 100 percent focus on securing European football. In the just concluded season the team took part in 59 games as they battled gamely on all fronts. League form did suffer for a spell as a result of the sheer volume of cup games early on in the year, but the team then hit a consistent spell and lost just one Premiership game from mid-February onwards. Robbie reflected that finishing in the top five is something the team can be satisfied with. "I think we have to be considering that around Christmas time we were struggling a little bit and it wasn't looking good for a UEFA Cup spot," he looked back. "Taking that into account we have to be happy with the way it worked out at the end. "It was very different with all the competitions, but personally I prefer it that way. I like to play a lot of games because it keeps you ticking over. Maybe we struggled a little bit at the start but after that we got into it and adapted." With the experience now tucked under collective belts, Robbie suspects the squad are now poised to push on. "I feel we can. Every season you want to progress and it is important we do. With this squad of players we have and, if it does get added to in the summer, we have to push on and fight for more. "We want to get better and better, we have finished fifth for two seasons and we want to be higher than that. "Certainly next season we will be a better team because we will have gelled together more. We had a lot of new players and by next season everyone will know each other's game a lot better." ============================================================================== Keano要以不断进步为目标 Keane也安於第五名作收 这个赛季对我们来说很不一样 05/06我们只踢了40场球 我们可以全力专注联赛 但是本赛季我们共踢了59场球 杯赛给联赛带来不少压力 但是球队从二月中开始只输掉一场球 Keane说 "在圣诞节的时候我们陷入一点麻烦 Uefa Cup的席位不是很光明" "考量到这一点 我们对於第五名可以说是非常高兴" "大量比赛很艰辛 但是以个人来说我比较喜欢这样" "我喜欢大量的比赛 因为这样能使你上紧发条" "或许开季我们遇上了一点麻烦 但是我们逐渐适应了" 不断学习到的经验 Robbie认为我们已经准备充分了 "我感觉到我们可以 每一季都要进步对我们来说是很重要的" "现在队中每位都做到这一点 如果加上夏天的生力军 我们已经准备好争取更大的成果" "我们要好上加好 连续两季我们都第五作收 我们要冲到更前面" "当然下一季我们会更棒 因为我们会更有默契" "我们之前加入不少新球员 下一季彼此都会更了解对方的足球" -- 确定开季和圣诞节的时候只有"a little bit"麻烦吗 XD Keano的话匣子打开很难停下来 -- Ｂerbatov：我们必须练练射门才行 --
