The "he's better than Jozy Altidore" arguement is a silly one like.

Could have bought Daryl Murphy for loads cheaper if that was the aim.

The only impact Altidore had is allowing us to get Defoe for free.

Fact is, neither player can command a transfer fee. Altidore can't because he's a busted flush, and Defoe can't because of his ludicrous demands.

The comparison should be between Defoe and every another player on the planet we could attract with our new ability to pay £80k pw. I can't see how Defoe is our best option when we still have a loan berth available, and equally I can't see how Defoe is a long term option.

On the contrary. We knew when we signed Altidore that Defoe would become available in January 2015 and that Toronto would be looking for a USA striker to replace him. It was a stunning bit of insight by Congerton and is now paying off in style, enabling us to use Altidore as a very strong bargaining chip. Obviously you didn't know this, but I think it shows you should be careful adopting a negative slant to all of our transfer dealings. I hope this helps.

Fair play UmCongo. I suppose thems the smarts you need if you're to land a 32 year old that no one else wants.
