Bruce a hugh fan also https://www.clubcall.com/hull-city/hull-facing-forward-fight-1727200.html, so the 3rd best striker statistically in france isnt good enough with better passing than Diafra Sakho, Ashley Barnes, Peter Crouch, Charlie Austin, Connor Wickham
Liverpool are in for him according to reports here in Oz so I guess that would put the other clubs out.
I'm not saying this is the only position we need in January, but we struggle if Jelly or Hernandez can't play and with having an experienced striker like Defoe to come on if we're struggling to score would create chances by his movement
I'd be happy with a striker with that pass %. It's surely harder to complete passes in the forward third than in midfield and defence when so many go sideways?
why is Bruce STILL talking out his corn piece AGAIN about how he might be too expensive, Allam earns around £4.3m a week, from marine increased produntivity by 40% and/football combined, thats enough to get 61 defoe's and still have enough left over for a packet of crisps, bruce offered welbeck £76k a week and £14m, http://www1.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/football/9632763/bruce-interested-in-defoe?
You seemed to have forgotten that we signed Hernandez, Diame, Ben Arfa and Ramirez which would of taken a huge percentage of our budget. The Allams could afford, but the club probably couldn't. It would be insane to commit nearly £100k a week to a 32 year old with no value.
about that, tv deals, advertising, ticket, shirt sales and others is about £70m a year (£1.36m) a week Allam marine £152m turnover per annum = £2.94m per week = £4.3m a week combined or around £7.10 every second also since the 2014 summer transfer window closed he has earned an estimated £77m, getting defoe is like a fart in the wind to him
I think you maybe need a few lessons on accounting. That's income, not earnings, his earnings are a fraction of that. I still wouldn't mind swapping with him like, but his total earnings are about £350k a week and a third of that comes from the interest he charges on his loan to Hull City, which he doesn't want to increase further.
