JD

Just watched Jerain Defoe's goals today - brilliant. Then I thought who was the best SKP or JD? I am probably going to be contreversial here but I think JD because SKP had a big striker Niall Quinn to work off whereas JD is playing up front by his self.

 

It's 50/50, mate. There's plenty on here who are saying, Defoe.

I'm still in the SKP camp.

 

Both excellent strikers - Pop Robson was the only other that I would put in their bracket in my lifetime supporting Safc

 

Gates, Gabbiadini, Rowell, Quinn?

 

I'm still SKP but that gap is sharp getting smaller by the game.

 

This question comes up more and more and I always give the same answer. Phillips I felt was a more complete player but Defoe is the most clinical. If I have 20 minutes to go in a game and I need a goal Defoe would be the guy I'd bring on out of the 2. But we are talking about probably the best 2 players to grace our teams in the past 30 years and there isint a fag paper between them.

 

Doesn't Com do this thread at least once a month?

 

I feel like I see this every week ha!

 

The guy deserves a thread every week man never mind every month.

It has been done many times before as you say, but week by week he just keeps doing it for us and you can't help but make the comparison.

 

Possibly Quinn he had a hell of a touch for a big forward the other lads were good but imo not in the same league

 

Sorry lads didn't realise this was going over old ground - I will double check the threads going back the last month before posting in future

 

Haha don't worry it's a subject that we all love discussing, especially after a day like today!

 

Oh I don't know about that mate.
The G-Force were immense.
Remember that play off semi with the horse punching scum?

 

12 goals and 14 is the best so far this season ! he was 33/1 to be top scorer about a week ago. Will have a £5 bet next week.

 

Don't worry about it fella. It just had the aura of a Com thread, it tickled me.

 

Can't choose between them, both so similar and equally brilliant.

 

Bit disturbing that you thought I have a similar psyche to comm but no worries

 

Not one of his off topics threads man

He does love his comparison threads though, especially to the Reidy era. Not complaining, some of the best times of my life. Going to reidy's games that is, not reading Coms football threads.

 

If Defoe keeps doing what he's been doing for us for another 18 months then he's one of our most important players ever.

Topping Phillips for me. Phillips played in an incredible team, did incredibly well and then took us down.

Defoe keeps us up then he's played in a dogshit side and kept us up three years in a row.

SKP is still ahead for me. 20-25 more goals and it's swung in SJD's favour.
