      I doubt anyone would want him on a permanent deal...

        i'm sure a few clubs would be interested. wigan, bolton, city etc... or some clubs in france. he'd be easier to shift than some of our other squad players IMHO.

            He wouldnt fetch much in the way of a transfer fee though, so sometimes it's better to just keep him on the books, or loan him out (again).

              Yes, clubs would be interested I'm sure. But I doubt any club would come up with the 2-3 million that Liverpool are be asking for. Unless Liverpool can lower their asking price, I can't see a permanent deal happening.

                Try telling that to my season ticket holding Spurs mate. Drives him insane, can't wait to see him sold.

                You think Cisse was bad for running offside? Wait til you see this headless chicken.
                Oh Jesus.

                How on Earth do you think it adds any credence WHATSOEVER if you claim that your opinion of Defoe is shared by your "season-ticket holding Spurs fan" mate?

                1) He supports Spurs
                2) He's your mate

                Neither of the above would suggest a cogent individual.

                    I'd be happy if we signed Defoe...I cant see Spurs selling him to their rivals though.

                      Agreed.

                      As so many have said on here, I can't see why we'd be in for that style of striker, considering what we've already got upfront.

                      And Didn't Dave Hodgson say last Jan that SWP was nailed on to be a red??

                        Defoe is a quality player, certainly a better finisher than Keane (though I am a big fan), I just think it's a case of him not fitting into Jol's thinking, for one reason or another (ala Cisse with us, though better).

                        He'd add more pace anyway, which is what we need upfront, given Bellamy's the only pacy option we have and he's proved himself to be injury prone.

                        Kuyt would be great as an improvement on Crouch, though there's no guarantee he would be a success. Defoe would be a good alternative, but would offer different qualities, which would put huge question marks over Rafa's reasoning for bringing him in, given it would mean a different approach to the options we'd have with Kuyt.

                            To be fair, the word 'rivals' was a bit flattering on Spurs, it's not like the're selling to newcastle or villa is it?

                              True, but for £18M and they have a lot of midfielders already...Oh and maybe they dont consider Manure as their rivals
