Defoe

It was discussed repeatedly as a loan tbf, for at least a month all of the journalists covering Liverpool and Sunderland said if we signed him, we would only sign him on loan.

Reports at the time stated that a £14m fee was agreed, and that the decision was Borini's to make.
 

Nice work Bop, have a like. You do realise your life is going to be hell every transfer window from now on though...
 
Despite what this clueless spurs idiot says, Defoe would be a very good signing for SAFC.

It would give us a fighting chance of actually scoring the odd goal and pushing up the league. The alternative is far worse.

Clueless of course, not like I watched him for years and years and know his current abilities better than you or anything. I'm sure you saw a few YouTube clips of him though
 
He's not though. Not on the evidence of the last game. I think Cattermole is better to be honest. The problem with us letting Ki and Colback go is they were solid passers. We miss that fluidity in the centre. If only Rodwell could show us something like that. Maybe there's something like Ki in him if he's ever fully fit. Very frustrating at times. I don't hate Gomez like some and I realise he's the best at picking out a forward pass but he's miles too slow and carries the ball in a really slow way too. Ki was by far the best at that furthest forward midfield role.
actually I'll take that point, cattermole does have surprisingly good vision, but the point still stands that we need that kind of player. Ki would have been a great choice, hopefully we can find someone like him
