Title: Shaun Wright Phillips & Jermaine Defoe play swapsies
Post by: Samdy Gray on Thursday, August 30, 2007, 12:35:26
Anyone seen the news about this.

Apparently Chelsea and Spurs have agreed a 'swap deal', with Spurs wanting SWP and £4 million for Defoe.

What the hell's all that about?!?

1) Defoe's never worth that amount

2) Defoe can't even get in the Spurs team let alone Chelsea

3) Chelsea are just insane if they think Defoe is better than SWP.

couple of years ago I would have disagreed with you but after seeing SWP's current form I agree 100%.

Ive never really rated Defoe however I know there are a few Defoe lovers on here for sure!

writing "fact." at teh end of a statement does not make it true. Observe:

Defoe is fucking shit. Fact.

Oh, no I stand corrected, that is most definately true.

why leave a lesser club where you cant get a game to go to one of the top sides where you'll be lucky to get on the bench.
and isn't swp getting games at chelsea?
i reckon its bollocks, as its a poor deal for chelsea and both players imo

Defoe will finish top scorer this year.  He is very good

Okay, maybe it doesn't, but the point remains. He's one of the best natural finishers in the league.

He won't.

If he stays at Spurs he won't get enough games and if he goes to Chelski..........................................


he won't get enough games.

defoe needs to go somewhere like portsmouth IMHO, if he was playing a lot of games i think he'd do pretty well over a season.  was expecting him to come on against germany last wednesday, especially since crouch is banned for israel anyway, he definitely needs games and he won't get them at chelski

Even thats debatable over the last 2 seasons.Through no fault of his own though.I think he has been very patient but for his own career he needs to move.

By the way i dont rate him that much

20 goals last season, mostly from the bench tells a story.

Only 8 in the Premiership though.

Swapping him for SWP is a shite deal for Chelsea, really shit....

not at all.

Spurs have no wingers, SWP plays on the wing and is better than their current wingers

Spurs have better strikers then Defoe anyway

Overrated beyond belief and injured.

Plus you generally have a wing either side.

Malbranque would be better used in the centre of the park, or just off the front two.

Their priority is left midfield. They have enough defenders, its just they're all injured!

Overrated in your opinion, not mine. I didn't know he was injured.

If you generally have a wing on both sides - thanks for that clarification -  why have two right wingers then ?

I never said he wasnt good, or capable of playing in the Spurs first team, but he's not as good as SWP at all.
