    That was in the second half I'm sure. He did miss after ten mins but it was a shot saved by the GK. I thought he did ok at Leicester but agree that if we can sell him and replace with a lone striker we should go for it

    Won't be too many clubs looking for a £15m striker around deadline day mate, stranger things have happened.

    Is this wishful thinking mate?

    I echo your sentiments, i'm crying for him also :) all he needs is a curly perm and we can start calling him Keegan :)

    I'm pretty sure that Graham is on a decent screw as well mate. £40k sticks in my mind for some reason, could be wrong though.

    Nobody is going sign Danny Graham and pay him more than 20k a week, we'll be stuck with him this season, or well have to pay half his wages on a loan. :(

    Yeah, well it is now cos I've got money on it.

    Why did Mourinho distance himself from Pedro just a few days ago, saying Chelsea didn't need him? Not everything has to be a mind game, the guy is losing the plot, so wrapped up in himself he's failing miserably so far this season with what should be a straightforward task for Mourinho.

    One dodgy decision against Chelsea in their next match and I fear he might end up sectioned.

    IMO he should be the egotistical ****er. He should be blasted for the way he treat the club doctor and not even saying he was wrong in what he said, but FFS, do it behind closed doors and have the balls to say it to her face.

    Anybody who gets shoved around by Arsene Wenger physically isn't worth a wet fart, in my opinion.

    No real surprises there Billy, Defoes wages will frighten off lot's of clubs, our club is criticised for not paying the big wages to attract the better player's but when those players want to move on or we try to sell them we end up stuck with them, ie Graham and Fletcher to name but two.

    Neither was Darren Bent but he scored goals when given the service.

    He made 'things happen' when the ball dropped to him about 25 yards out on his weaker foot then rifled it into the top bin vs. the Mags.

    Where's the concrete evidence that Defoe wants to be away OR that we want to sell him ?

    There is always that! We can't really expect great business to be done looking at our recruitment record. Think we are relying more on luck rather than judgement!

    I don't understand it. He's still scored 5 in 18 games with no service for a team battling relegation. Yet because his first touch isn't brilliant he's automatically a **** striker we should get shot of at the first bit of interest. Look at the goal vs the Mags & the one vs. Swansea - both class.

    IMO we need to build a system around the likes of Defoe & Giacc not look to flog them because they can't play hoofball or whatever 'system' we want to play.
