Id have Defoe. I think he'd be a success, but only in a 442 with him and rvp up top.

I don't like Defoe I will admit and a couple of years back I would have been disgusted by his arrival.
However, I have softened to him coming to Arsenal, a move that will surprise my old friend Eboue Can't Defend!

I have a few spud "mates" and I use the term lightly
and their big gripe with Defoe is that he doesn't do it against good premiership opposition.
I certainly don't rate him, and think he would be a Kiwomya type signing

You could label that accusation against any of Spurs' players.

Hardly a good measure of a players ability, England are shite. And so is defoe.

I think he would be a great signing. Might get slated for this but I see a lot of similarities with Wrighty. Think him and RVP would be a great partnership were we to switch back to 442.

Really......the word shite is used so freely on here, England aren't shite tbf and defoe is a goode player, he is a very good natural goalscorer.
He's better than bendy, chamakh and vela without a shadow of a doubt.

Kiwomya = shite
Defoe = shite
Comparison accurate

Spends too much time hanging out the back of wannabe WAGS with plastic titties for my liking. No thanks.
