ffs why do people insist on saying we should sign Defoe ?
What has this guy actually done apart from gone from being Tottenham's main striking hope to reserve in one season ? He is unable to break through the partnership of Mido and Keane which isn't exactly the greatest strikeforce in the world and has been shown up several times on TV for being an extremely selfish non-team player. I really do not see anything this guy will bring to the team apart from his huge ego as he doesn't even work hard for the team.
His scoring record has hardly set the world on fire neither so he's not even a guaranteed 20 goal a season man. In the 2004/05 season he was outscored in the premiership by that renowned and world feared goal poacher Robert Pires !
So, to sum up then. Defoe - Can't finish as well as Fowler. Nowhere near as much a team player as Crouch. Slower than Cisse. Oh, but he is English I guess and is hyped up by the press beyond his merit !
Not good enough !
