Freeman's Wharfer Posted 2 January 2015 Posted 2 January 2015 Get it done ASAP. Exactly what we need.
Tuna Posted 2 January 2015 Posted 2 January 2015 4/9 on sky bet now In English please, betting talk is like braille to me.
ScouseFox Posted 2 January 2015 Posted 2 January 2015 imagine if we started the window trolling burnley with bids of 8 million for danny ings then got defoe on loan. scenes.
Robin JD Popley Posted 2 January 2015 Posted 2 January 2015 It does seem that Liverpool have been offered him if rumours on Twitter (Telegraph as a source) are correct but, that said, it only seems like he has been offered to them and as others have stated - that means very little nowadays. If the Guardian are reporting it, you would hope it has more truth to it than say reading it in the Mail but even they are swaying towards us too. So, fingers crossed. The team sheet will sound a bit more Premier League if this does happen; "Schwarzer, Cambiasso and Defoe all start for Leicester City today".
SecretPro Posted 2 January 2015 Posted 2 January 2015 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA are people seriously turning their noses up at Defoe? Vardy, Nugent, Wood and people are turning their noses up at Defoe? Blind loyalty is the loser here.
Bamba's Babes Posted 2 January 2015 Posted 2 January 2015 Proven at this level. We only need him to score between 7 and 10 goals. Do-able.
ScouseFox Posted 2 January 2015 Posted 2 January 2015 In English please, betting talk is like braille to me. someone somewhere thinks it's very, very likely to happen and therefore sky won't let people take much money off them if it does. so they're not thinking it's very likely to happen, too. it could all be rubbish though.

I try not to take too much notice of betting odds in some cases, there's far too much of a story behind things. Plus, the slightest thing changes and a deal won't be done. It happens all the time with manager changes/player transfers.

Yeah bookies run scared when there's even a little money because info on these is seemingly easily passed around/found out. Even some joker having a punt on an outsider can get them worried. Imagine if you're a bookie and someone calls up asking to put a bet on next manager somewhere 'cos they aren't on the list. You'd think something fishy was going on. Yes its not long ago Pearson was odds on to be fired. Many others, like McKay odds on for Palace then the whole homophobia/racial stuff came out. I've seen many manager markets go odds on then they actually employ someone completely different. They're not often wrong that a person is talking to a club or being considered by a club. There's so many possible hitches to deals that betting on that sort of stuff is extremely risky until you know it's a done deal. Problem is the markets are closed by that time as the bookies are shit scared.
Benguin Posted 3 January 2015 Posted 3 January 2015 In English please, betting talk is like braille to me. The odds Chelsea would be given for the win if they were playing against us.
ScouseFox Posted 3 January 2015 Posted 3 January 2015 MON was stupid odds on to be our next manager before pearson came back wasn't he? Because a load of people had bets on it probably cos of "info" like the thread on here at the time . They're an interesting guide but just cos Defoe is odds on to join us I wouldn't be getting his name on your limited edition red kit just yet.

The team sheet will sound a bit more Premier League if this does happen; "Schwarzer, Cambiasso and Defoe all start for Leicester City today". Schwarzer Simpson. Moore. Morgan. RDL Mahrez. Cambiasso. Drinkwater. Schlupp. Ulloa. Defoe. With players like Knockaert, king, Albrighton on the bench as well, that's actually starting to look like a proper PL squad. With the rumours of Lennon as well, even more so. Defense needs a bit more quality/prem experience, though. Keep putting in performances like we have been doing in the last few games, and with players like Defoe adding that extra quality we could do very well going forwards...

LeicesterBran Posted 3 January 2015 Posted 3 January 2015 He's been pretty disappointing for Toronto and although he isn't an awful player. We are capable of getting better for less, instead we could get Gilberto off Toronto instead. While I was staying in Toronto, saw him play a couple of times and was impressed. He is rated highly there and my mates who support TFC reckon he can be a good player in Europe.
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 3 January 2015 Posted 3 January 2015 This would be first signing in a long time to really get me excited, can't remember of one ever has before. Until i checked i thought he was about 34 not 32

Finn Claw II Posted 3 January 2015 Posted 3 January 2015 He'll go to QPR. They need a striker as much as we do. Would LOVE him here though, should have played for England more than he did.
benpicko Posted 3 January 2015 Posted 3 January 2015 Disappointing? He got around 11 goals in 19 games. Despite the level he still knows where the net is Bradley Wright-Phillips has got 27 in 32
