Not a chance in hell I'd swap strike forces even if they did have those 2. One unknown quantity and one individual mercenary who can't pass. Goals probably, team progression no. Anyone that is so driven by money that they sign for PFC, a club with no training ground, no infrastructure and playing in a shed, can pretty much fck off.

 

Yeah, I'd rather my club struggled at the bottom of the league in a relegation scrap than snapped up a proven top flight striker like Defoe. It's hardly a shock to see a premier league striker move clubs for a quick pay packet. And he was class at Pompey, same as WHU and Spurs. If strikers aren't a bit greedy and selfish they don't tend to score very often.

The club have said that the foundation of our transfer policy is to sign young, talented and preferably English players who also meet a defined criteria regarding attitude and personality.......and people think we would sign Jermaine Defoe?

 

Would he be worth breaking our wage structure for? He'll be looking for his last pay day.

He's an unknown quantity but if Nige and Nicola think he's worth that then it's fine by me! Could've sworn they accepted 4m Euros though before all this third party nonsense.

A relegation magnet.

 

No, Brum got relegated because they couldn't score goals (lowest in the Prem when they went down). Their defence was comfortably midtable. Blackburn had several tallented players, including Dann, but were terribly managed.

 

I'd be very happy if we got him.

If Nixon is right, and is also right in saying it's a domestic transfer then I think it might be Dann. Nixon has links around that area.

nixon says the player has had a mention previously, so we can now narrow it down to about 100 players lol

 

its not schmichael because nixon says this player is good and he has previously tweeted saying he doubts KS is prem quality.

 

my wishful thinking is zaha, ince or phillips.

You may be right, but I still have a feeling their 'great defence' was helped hugely by playing a defensive midfield and basically no attack. If you set up not to concede goals, defenders are going to look good as there's usually a helping hand for them, cover for mistakes and plenty of clean sheets.

 

That said, we're so short of CBs I'd be happy to sign him.

 

I'd have said that was the mark of a good team, rather than just a defensive one. Last season we had a decent defensive midfield with the likes of Cork, Morgan, Dean and Chaplow all working hard and tracking back to protect our defence. We had the second best defence in the League but we were still the top goal scorers because we had a good, well balanced midfield.

Sure if it was a big signing then it would be being reported elsewhere ?

 

It is a player than has already been mentioned, so it has.

what about ryo miyaichi? he was on loan at bolton last season and made a good impression. nixon has close contacts at bolton and player has been linked to saints before which nixon never deined when questioned. Just said bolton had 1st refusal.

So why did we sign Steven Davis then? Only 1 out of 2 signings has fit your 'criteria'... Just because we want young hungry and english doesnt mean we wont sign some experience too.

@roversmadfan1 Well off for centre halves just now. No sales yet either. Nobody wants them or will pay prices

 

Nixon just said this to a Blackburn fan. Would seem to rule out Dann...

1. Davis is 27 not 30

 

2. Davis fits into the wage structure. Defoe is on 60K + a week. Do you really think it's worth paying him upwards of that? This is his last chance for a big pay day so you can gaurentee you'd have too.

 

3. I don't know anything about Davis but Defoe definitely comes across as a bit of a knob.

 

4. It's not my criteria, it's the clubs

 

5. Other than Davis, nearly every player we have been consistently linked with does fit the criteria
