Rasmussen impressed by Keane

Both players arrived at Parkhead in January but the capture of the Irishman on a loan deal from Tottenham eclipsed Rasmussen's move from Danish side Brondby days earlier.[LNB]And while all the focus has been on Keane, who scored a hat-trick against Kilmarnock last weekend to take his tally to eight in eight games, Rasmussen has remained in the background and been used sparingly by boss Tony Mowbray.[LNB]Rasmussen has partnered Keane in Celtic's last two games, but is happy for the Republic of Ireland striker to enjoy the limelight while he takes time to get used to his new surroundings.[LNB]"I think Robbie Keane's arrival is a great thing," the striker told the Celtic View.[LNB]"He's a top-class player and it is always nice to play with someone who is that good.[LNB]"But I wasn't thinking of stardom when I came here. I just needed some time to get to know the Scottish league and my team-mates and that's fine with me.[LNB]"I expected the club to be very big and I know I can see that and I know I was right.[LNB]"I came here during the Danish pre-season so I wasn't 100 per cent fit but I am getting closer to that.[LNB]"Of course it is difficult to come to a new place but the only thing I can do is do my best and I am trying to do that in training and matches."[LNB][LNB] Celtic v St. Johnstone.
