Possibly a more ridiculous statement than the OP!


Defoe is a poacher like Campbell and Maynard :?



so what are you saying exactly?

lets first state that we have no chance of getting him, but lets just imagine for a second.

Are you saying that, IF we had a bid accepted, and IF Defoe wanted to come here, you wouldnt have him because hes too similar to Maynard and Campbell?

:lol:


I get his point.

If you have a certain amount to spend, you want to spend it on players who will bring something new to the side.

He isn't saying Frazier Campbell and Nicky Maynard are better, just that there is no point in strengthening in an area where we already have two good players.

Imagine if we spent our entire transfer budget on someone like De Gea (never will happen but just an example). It would be a waste because although he is better than Marshall, Marshall is a good player who won't let us down next season so we would be better off signing in positions we need stronger players in, such as right back, central defence, wingers, target man centre forward.

we dont already have two good players in that position though, thats the point. Neither are tested at the top level.

If we did have a chance to get a player like Defoe, we should

We are better serviced in that area than other areas such as RB, CB, DM and on the wing! I'd rather see the money spent in those areas.

Pretty sure both of them will score goals next season, too.
