Yes and no on that deal.
Yes cause is a natural born goal scorer No cause he is 30 and on very good money

Be a great signing, no doubt he's still got plenty of goals in him.

I'd go for him, he has what we need and that's his knowledge of where the net is.

on 65k a week and 6 million with little resale value at 30 years of age. Not exactly the type of signing Coates will be excited about.
Would prefer we go for someone younger and up and coming we can ideally make a profit on.
Hes still a quality player though

Would be a great signing, proven goal scorer. Im sure we are looking for another striker too and his experience is invaluable.

Hes class get it done! I know he's older than maybe what we are looking at but his pace and goalscoring ability is just what we need.

Pulis tactics turned good players into shite or average ones It's how he would of used Defoe that would of been a talking point and not that he was after him Up front on his own, isolated and no support from anybody else whereas Hughes will play him alongside somebody else along with midfield support As with Peters....yeah Pulis was after him but he would of played him totally out of position if he had played him at all It's all relivent

At the time Pulis was in charge Defoe wouldn't have suited us, different scenario completely with our new gaffa though. Very similar player to Owen and Pulis would have played him at Left back if he could have got away with it!
Defoe on a 2 year deal would be a quality signing, guaranteed goals!

If we could get him on loan or for a fee 4m or under id take him. He's just what we want just a bit too old. We could be the best offer he'd get certain starter.

another top earner would have to leave first. like crouch to qpr and tottenham have only got him and ade so i doubt very much if they will let him go at this point in time. talk to us again after spurs have signed two strikers!

Look at michu, benteke, lukaku, ba etc, they were all unknowns at some point. I just hope we can start to scout some gems of our own.

If it's true about QPR offering or willing to pay 5 million for Crouch then surely they've got to cash in on him now, hes 32 and as soon as the summer window shuts he will automatically devalue by at-least 1 million, although i'd love Defoe here and he would be a quality and proven partner for crouch, Win win either way for me personally, but if he did come, where would SJW play? :-O

I hate Defoe. Little prick. All this douche does is finish yet he's getting old and finding openings less frequently, but he literally can't do anything else. Don't think this clown can spell pass let alone play one. And while he can finish, he's extremely streaky. Great run followed by shit making you wonder how this girl even made the bench.
But the biggest problem is aside from finishing he doesn't help, at all. And he'll go games, months without scoring and in those games he's about as helpful as a blind woman on one leg.
With hopeful improved wing play get a true hold up CF who can finish.

Defoe is a great finisher, probably the best English finisher in the last 10 years or so.
6million and 65k a week is not a good deal though for any 30 year old.

Well actually its all relative isn't it. The last 30 year old striker we signed cost us Double plus we had to pay £6m for Palacios.
6Million, three year contract 50k a week, sounds fair to me. If we can get a couple of million for Crouch we should flog him. Also Hughes is hopefully prioritising extending KJs contract.

Also Hughes is hopefully prioritising extending KJs Hmmmm, when you see Bony being for sale for 10million I think he is a better buy than Defoe and the deal would in total cost the same as Bony would not cost 65k in wages per week. Just can't see PC doing the Defoe deal after what he said about the crouch deal.
