That's why there's only been 1 other like him in Celtic's history, because everyone could do it, right? Scottish football is on its arse, Hooper would do well in the championship. That's his and Celtics level.

Don't want this. When it comes to short, pacey strikers with a lethal finish, Defoe is the past. Gayley is the future. Had him. Lost him. No point trying to replace him with the same sort of striker...only older.

Getting him on a free (wages and signing on fee not-withstanding) would be great business. Benteke, Wickham and Defoe. Not a bad forward line. Edited by Lombardos barber (19 May 2017 6.22am)

No point trying to replace him with the same sort of striker...only older. Gayle was not that pacey. In fact I remember him being quite slow against most defenders. Sharp in 6 yard box and decent finisher yes.

For a striker who's going to come on for the last 10 minutes of each game....as he doesn't fit our system. Doesn't seem worth it.

Defoe is not for Palace at £5m + per year, three year contract plus transfer/signing on fee plus agents this would be north of £22m investment . Good as he is there is no value in this for a player who will mainly start on the bench. Edited by OneMax (19 May 2017 9.49am)

We need a centre back (Sakho please), a Keeper (press rumours linking us to Hart), competition at RB and a creative central midfielder - it seems unlikely we can afford our first pick in all those positions. I'd rather prioritise spending on positions where the new player will start every game. We do need another striker but, good as Defoe is, he'd only be a sub most games, I think we should look elsewhere.
