Defoe to sign this week

[DeeGame]

according to ynwa & RAOTL Defoe is to sign this week.

Very surprised by this as we already have bellamy but dave hodgson has confirmed the rumour to be true.

What do you guys think about this?

Who's Dave Hodgson ?

[Guest]

If that's true, then Kuyt is off to Newcastle and we're settling for our second choice, Defoe.

Deja vu is the new deja vu.

News in the North East is that he's nailed on for the toon. Mind you the guy that told me is the same one that told me Baggio, Ronaldo, Rooney,Le Tiss etc were coming over the years.

Do you mean Defoe or Kuyt?

Can't see us really being in for Defoe.

[Harv]

i cant say i would be unhappy if we got Defoe....he is a good player.

I really wanted Kuyt though!

[wildman]

He's the guy who's full of crap ain't he

Apparantly talks with Defoe were very similar to talks with Pennant, we agreed a contract in principle months ago, with certain bonuses thrown in, dependant on the player waiting for us to pursue other avenues first.

Sounds like we've lost the race for Kuyt then?

[Laz]

Noooooo.

I'm off to start a 'Selling Defoe' thread.

[red g]

if we get defoe, i thinkit means Fowler will be playing a lot more this season. I think Defoe could be a very good buy. Premiership ready as well

[Shaggy]

****.

Don't know why everyone's so 'up in arms' personally. He's not a bad player, but there's a marked difference in style between him and Kuyt, that's what I can't get my head around..

Yeah, for a start I can't get my head around that and secondly, I'm not exactly a fan of Defoe. Head down, no awareness....just another Cisse if you ask me.
