Team mates must help Keane

Keane has only scored four goals for Liverpool this season and is not playing well at the moment. However, Rafa Benitez has backed his £20m signing to come good and has called on his team mates to help him out by creating more chances for him.

"Robbie is a better player than the one we are seeing now," said the Spaniard.

"We know what kind of player Robbie Keane is. He needs people around him to pass the ball well.

"I believe he will be okay, he will score more if we create chances for him. But if that does not happen we have to use players with different qualities to open up the game."
