Stevosevic Posted 1 September 2014 Share Posted 1 September 2014 Think people need to get away from the wages issue. We won't break the bank, and he wants to leave, he'll know a pay cut will have to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tetly Posted 1 September 2014 Share Posted 1 September 2014 He would score plenty of goals for us, please make it happen. This is the type of player a proven goal scorer we need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shamomoa Posted 1 September 2014 Share Posted 1 September 2014 This would be a bigger and better signing than cambiasso for me... He'd deffinately score a few. I'll have a celebratory drink if they pull it off ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finnaldo Posted 1 September 2014 Share Posted 1 September 2014 As I said in the other thread, I wouldn't want him. Why's that? Think he'd be a solid signing. Wages are the glaringly obvious problem though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MattP Posted 1 September 2014 Share Posted 1 September 2014 Looked well past it in his last season at Spurs but would trust the management if they thought he could do a job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fox92 Posted 1 September 2014 Share Posted 1 September 2014 Why's that? Think he'd be a solid signing. Wages are the glaringly obvious problem though. I think he could be the wrong time of player. We have a very tight squad at the minute, we're not full of individuals, we're a real team, and I don't see Defoe as a player that fits into that... He's a player I'd expect to fit in at Queens Park Rangers, not Leicester City. I'm not doubting his ability in this division. But as always, I will always back Nigel Pearson.

wakeyfox01 Posted 1 September 2014 Share Posted 1 September 2014 Doesn't have the work rate of our other strikers so struggle to see how he'd fit into our team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh no I was just enquiring why you didn't want him. If he is looking for another pay day than it will have to be QPR. If he's just looking to play first team football I wouldn't mind him here.

ealingfox Posted 1 September 2014 Share Posted 1 September 2014 What is all this 'proven goalscorer' bollocks? Times change, and the prime of a footballer is not very long. Pele is a proven goalscorer, shall we get him in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxfanazer Posted 1 September 2014 Share Posted 1 September 2014 He probably hasn't got the same. E work rate as our other players but give him Schlupp's chance against Everton and Nugent's against Chelsea and he'd have buried them both, no doubt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WardyisPukka Posted 1 September 2014 Share Posted 1 September 2014 17.43 Jermain Defoe is on the move... but where? Matt Law has all the answers: "Leicester City are emerging as surprise favourites to sign Jermain Defoe on loan with a view to a permanent move. Arsenal passed up the chance to sign Defoe from Toronto FC earlier today and Queens Park Rangers have cooled their interest in the former Tottenham man. That leaves Leicester as the club most likely to sign Defoe, barring any late developments or changes of heart. Defoe will have to lower his £90,000-a-week wage demands to complete a return to the Premier League, but his determination to move back to England is likely to see the 31-year-old do that. With time running out on transfer deadline day, Leicester are likely to try to sign Defoe on loan until the January window with a view to making the transfer permanent in the New Year."

Babylon Posted 1 September 2014 Share Posted 1 September 2014 What is all this 'proven goalscorer' bollocks? Times change, and the prime of a footballer is not very long. Pele is a proven goalscorer, shall we get him in? He's 31 for gods sake not 40, he scored 10 in 23 in all comps as a bit part player last season for spurs.
