Congratulations Jermain Defoe

[SpurSince57]

And on MOTD, a great chance to square the ball at the death and it's the old tunnel vision we've come to know and love. Baros and JD! Way to go!

Some of Chelsea's defending was abysmal, truly. Let's hope they're that bad against us in three weeks' time.

The papers are reporting that defoe has only gone to pompey on loan. More shite reporting I am sure. :think:

 

[Bill_Oddie]

Wishful thinking on The Gay Damek's side, I reckon. They'll try anything to avoid the sticky financial mess they are in.

 

[Defsta]

Good luck to JD :cheers:

Good Luck JD, I hope you don't get bad AIDS from that big poof behind you.

Good Luck JD, I hope you don't get bad AIDS from that big poof behind you.

As opposed to good AIDS?

Well done Jermain...no doubt he will score a hatful for Pompey now and prove Spurs wrong-which I hope he does.

Kinda strange seeing him in a Portsmouth shirt.

Nice one JD. First of many no doubt..

 

[Michey]

Offside aparently

....missed three golden opportunities as well

But good for him that he scored at last

I've seen this as well. Sky Sports says it was a loan deal to get it through in time and will be finalised this coming week.

A club spokesman has now come out to clear up the situation, explaining that an initial loan arrangement was struck due to time constraints.


"The Defoe transfer was done as an initial loan because of time restraint.


"The full documents will be signed and registered this week and this is a standard method when you have little time."

Isn't this just a back door way of getting around the deadline? If so, why didn't Man City do this with Benjani?

 

[ShadyRay]

As opposed to good AIDS?

Well obviously.

And anyway, Jermain who?

BBC:

Jermain Defoe has been called into the England squad to face Switzerland on Wednesday as cover for injured striker Gabriel Agbonlahor.

Good for him.

The club probably wasn't aware of this way of doing sneaky buisness :wink:

jd back in the england team! how quickly first team football is paying dividends eh

so now we have 3 in the england squad again.. woohoo (until pompi pays us the monies)

 

[taidgh]

i don't think he could have hoped for much more. he played (started), scored a goal, and was recalled to the england squad.

from the guardian:

"But the Italian coach told Defoe last night that, having moved to Portsmouth and scored on debut on Saturday, he has a role to play after all."

fair play to jermain...hope he does well in all games except agains us..

 

[Legend10]

6 goals in 6 games now for Pompey!

And 9 goals in just 970 Premiership minutes this season, which by anybody's standards is outstanding.

 

[Cicinho]

yeah all he needed was a run of games, too bad he never got that under ramos...would have been a better option than a certain under performing irishman right about now
