Gabby and Defoe - a hypthetical question.

[Chipsticks]

Buy Defoe and swap Bent for Carroll, keep Gabby.

Paulie's hypothetical scenario was to give us similar but slightly more limited striking options while making us a profit.

Yours seems to end up with worse strikers while costing us a load of money.

I refuse to believe that any man of sane disposition would swap Bent for Carroll.

Ah, the old 'I think so much of my opinion, people who disagree with it must be lunatics' line. It's been a while.

To be fair Percy, he's right.

Carroll for Bent would be mental, the kind of deal TSM would have done.

[Californian Villain]

I wouldn't say no to Defoe.

Defoe said no to Villa twice under MON and will do so again if necessary because he will not leave London. If he moves anywhere it will be to QPR.

QPR must be assembling the biggest wage bill outside the top 4.

[LeeB]

I can't see Lambert being in for Defoe at all.

I don't know Defoe, but my guess is he'd be the kind of player who'd be more motivated by money and status, a culture Lambert is hellbent on getting out of the club.

I may be wrong.

[Witton Warrior]

Where did this come from? I nearly spat me chips out when I saw Kenwyn bloody Jones in the same sentence as Defoe!
Defoe is a bright lights boy and Broad Street ain't got enough wattage...

[Dan England]

Buy Defoe and swap Bent for Carroll, keep Gabby.

Are you Mcleish in disguise?

[Dave Clark Five]

Defoe is the kind of player who eventually gets here when he is about 35 and totally crippled.
