    I have seen us linked to Defoe in several places actually, from different people/papers/sources. There must be something in it.

    We all predicted it though!

    He's crocked at present, so we're guaranteed to sign him!...:grin:

    Been reading somewhere he's long term crocked, and has been out much of their season. Synthetic pitches blamed, but doen't suggest that he could play much for us.

    Great opportunity to pair Nelson and Dunne up as CB's!

    I'd take Defoe in an instant

    Exactly the type of pacey forward we need in our side

    No transfer day would be complete without a Defoe speculation.
    Happy to have him if it happens.

    The more I think of it, the more I think it would be a great signing.

    I am reading more and more rumours about it now. £6.6m fee for a permanent transfer rumoured.

    I'm guessing he'd rather play in the PL??

    Toronto General Manager on Defoe:

    On Defoe, TFC Tim Bezbatchenko tells @KristianJack: "We are in regular contact with QPR & we will figure out what's best for him."

    That's crazy. I'd take him on a free.

    Lots of sources saying we've bid £6.6million quid for him, surely we wouldn't pay that much for him?? I don't mind him joining on a sensible contract or on loan, but at that price I really hope this is just speculation.

    I'd guess a loan deal taking over his wages at £90k a week would be the sensible option for both parties...
