    I honestly thought he would have been on more than 50k so he could be in our wage bracket.

    He's a proven Prem and England goalscorer, so defo yes.

    If he'd be willing to come North, and take our wage cap, then he'd be a great signing for us.

    Defoe is 29 in October, Robbie Keane is 31 in July..........Wages would be about the same i would suggest!! No brainer!!

    I'd be tempted to take Shane Long on too as a prospect. Any lad his age who can sink 24 in a Championship season might be canny to have around!!

    Defoe isn't getting in the team for a reason. He has 4 league goals.

    played scored assists shots
    21-------4------2-----64

    bet a couple of those are pens too
    If Crouch is starting ahead of you, it doesnt bode well.

    Ameobi
    played scored assists shots
    27-------6------2-----50


    Based on reputation* in England, no. Otherwise, yes

    *since he's overrated

    He's the best of all the strikers we've been SERIOUSLY linked to, I'd have him for anything up to £10m.

    I don't get how some people are saying no to Jermain Defoe

    Proven Prem player, who if he started every game this season would have 20 goals for Spurs no doubt about it

    He is also 10 times better than any striker we have. I would have him in a heart beat. For me he is as good as Darren Bent

    He wouldn't have 20 goals. He has 4 and has played in 21 games, 15 of which were starts. 15 starts and 4 goals in the league. Playing in a better side than ours. He isn't that quick, he isn't a brilliant finisher, he doesn't work hard, and he is small and weak as anthing. Really quite average.

    He is a confidence player. If he plays week in, week out he will bag loads. He has done through out his career

    He just doesn't fit into Spurs team

    Thing is if we went for him, Harry would try and get Tiote and offer us Defoe and Bentley in exchange...

    Throughtout his career until this season. He isn't what he was 3 or 4 years ago.

    I dunno, I think he is still a class act

    I wouldn't have him as a top priority signing but for £5m or so I would have him

    he won't fit into our team either, since we'll be playing a similar formation to them next season

    (with the difference that Ben Arfa is better than vdv ;))
