Can't believe anyone would actually take this f***ing lump of shite. I'd rather play with 1 man less.

We have players who could fill in as a striker who are better than this turd and who don't even play that position.
 
The fact that so many of us are saying they'd take him shows what a fuck up we've made of this transfer window. Might as well give Yakubu a call as well.
 
We've only got to get to January, when we can hopefully add a player we actually want, rather than one who is there as an insurance policy, and who might require at least a year's contract to sign up.

If Defoe stays fit for four months, all's well. If he gets injured before Borini returns (three months) then we have a problem, but not one that is insurmountable. We could at that point sign someone who's a free agent (rather than doing so now). Alternatively, by then Asoro may have been eased into the team more and be in a position to start a few games, or another option will emerge: Watmore, Januzai, Khazri perhaps, or an emergency striker from elsewhere in the team.

We have 16 games between now and Jan 1st (just 10 before Borini is due back), and while it's not ideal, the risk of Defoe missing more than a few of them is actually pretty small, in reality. So at the likely risk of a couple of games where we don't have a striker, I don't think it's as dramatic as many are saying.
