So now we've got fans panicking over the mob signing ANOTHER over the hill player.
A guy that's scored 4 goals in his last 33 game.
Game changer?

Can our fans not remember guys like Barton senderos Hill ect?

Or even our own over the hill players like Wright, Ljungberg or Cole?

Got to agree kev, laughed at Sutton’s reaction to it on Twitter. Undoubtedly a great player in his day but come on, the guys no kicked a baw in anger for long enough.

Exactly.

If anything it’s just more proof they have absolutely no long term plan in place, would anybody really be happy with us signing a 36 year old on loan who can’t get in the Bournemouth team? I hope not.

Even if they were to stop the 10, all these quick fixes they are trying to put in place is just going to solidify our long term dominance.

Agree totally with you mate. Day 3 of the window! I would hate to be in the trenches with some of them. Their starting 11 will be like a Legends team. Roger Milla is probably sitting on Skype in a Cameroon internet cafe waiting on Gerrard phoning .

Defoe is a Haddy.

I think we should concentrate on the guys our team brings in not the ones the sevies make.

The treble is coming home and in Brendan we trust.

{Ed007's Note - I've never seen the fuss about Defoe and have had many a debate with posters about him over the years, all he ever had was pace and at 36 that's long gone - his overall record of 242 goals in 638 games is a joke.}

Kev he’s that over the hill that Celtic were interested. I’ve just had a 67 year old plumber fit ma bathroom a was rubbishting myself in case he let his 17 year old apprentice fit it. I do indeed remember our failures but he may not be and it leaves them considerably better looking in that department than we do at present based on the recent Ibronx display with Defoe now alongside the SPL’s current top scorer in Morelos who can’t get red cards and big (ot) Lafferty with Davis to follow would you not agree? No panic here but my biggest fear as I’ve said isn’t that we will spend more it’s whether Rodgers can buy better.

Where’s the long term visions in a signing like that? So glad it’s not us he’s coming tae. That age, lack of football plus his wage aswell. No need to panic with signings like that, yes he’ll score goals up here, but it’s what we do that matters to me, and given how the window went for us in the summer I fully expect us to know who we want and where we want improved.

Jfp1888 Celtic were interested really?
According to who the daily mail and the sun?

Funny how the manager said he wants 2 strikers. We've bid for one (confirmed by his club) and are on deep negotiations for the other (confirmed by the gaffer) .

So where does Defoe fit? Are we punting eddy already like a lot of fans on here have called for?

36 years old. 4 goals in 16 months. 4th pick a5 Bournemouth. Hardly anything to worry about.

Every player is different just because some older players have been poor doesn’t mean they all are.
Larsson left us well into his 30’s and done very well. By all accounts the boy Defoe has looked after himself and might still have a lot to offer in this league. I’d rather we signed him than a player who has played only 5 times never from the start as a professional but just because it’s PSG we are supposed to believe he is amazing.
Sutton’s right he is a big signing, what makes me mad is why are we not bringing that type of quality here.

Type of quality? He hasn’t scored a goal in 9 months.
