Defoe

[The Hooded Claw]

I don't think it's unreasonable to not be thrilled about this. He has no obvious role in "the system" and if he loses some of his pace, he'll be hard to move on those wages.

I'm pretty ambivalent. Who knows. See how it plays out. We can't be going back to 5-3-2, can we?

I would have thought you would have realised by now it doesn't matter in the slightest what you think.

 

[Bishop Mackem]

Defoe hasn't played football as long as most 32 year olds, It's like mileage on a car.

Both cars are 5 years old but one has only done 34 to 168

..my.. God

 

[J0hnboy]

Odds have bugger all to do with likelihood of him coming just a sign that a lot of money is going on him to come. Prob cos people on this board keep betting.

It's still a positive sign.

 

[The Hooded Claw]

Is that deal looking likely as well mate?

Until he pledges his undying loyalty to SAFC I wouldn't have him here.

 

[Foreigner]

Is the Sun journo credible?

Defoe is/was f***ing class. I imagine he would compliment fletcher well up front. Poyet would SURELY have to play two up front if we somehow got Defoe, surely.

I wish mate

we have good enough players to do it, despite what people on here think, we are underperfoming and have to change the system for this lad if he comes, I don't think he will score goals in our current system

poyet will probably play him left wing

 

[Guinness Guzzler]

Defoe is a young 32.

He has spent at least 2 playing years on the bench so his real age is 29/30

f***ing hell, Steve Harper must be about 7

 

[King Kareoke]

Some people would moan if we signed Messi.

Must be bloody useless didn't win that balloon thingy and Roy doesn't rate him

 

[BumbleBee]

Is the Sun journo credible?

Probably not but the OP and his mates are.

 

[The Hooded Claw]

Get far with that bird from work?

She pretended to be a lesbian just to avoid him.

 

[greedminds]

if we pay the money he will come, he was very impressed with sunderland when he came up 18 months ago when MoN was here

 

[Mikeftw]

Why is this 20 pages, it ain't gonna happen

 

[BumbleBee]

She pretended to be a lesbian just to avoid him.

Flaw in that plan me thinks.

 

[King Kareoke]

Why is this 20 pages, it ain't gonna happen

Because it is a bit of light relief from the dross we normally talk about

 

[Fulwell Mackem]

She pretended to be a lesbian just to avoid him.

Aye but he wore a gay pride bracelet so he's still in with a chance

 

[King Kareoke]

Is any Sun journo credible?

Tidied

Understand the point your making but he must be rated better than what we have now.

 

[NiallFin]

Signing tomorrow? There is no chance he will have completed his medical by tomorrow man.......... according to the news, people are having to wait 24 hours to be seen in hospitals and he'd have to go to the end of queue wouldn't he?!!

 

[The Hooded Claw]

Aye but he wore a gay pride bracelet so he's still in with a chance

Yeah but she thinks he is gay now. Confusing situation.

 

[hudson88]

No doubting his finishing skills, but where are the chances going to come from for him to finish?

He'll make runs in behind yes, but Gomez will still only be on his 3rd touch by then, so won't pick the pass before Defoe is 15 yards offside.

Good player, but I'd rather have a genuine left winger with pace and creativity
