Or maybe theyre just a "gooner" for the status thang.<BR/><BR/>Back to the other subject, good point re: young pups like Boateng and O'Hara - they will prob survive.

These 3 guys are fighting for the right to partner Berba and Keane is far more versatile and equipped mentally.<BR/><BR/>Not saying Defoe is no good, as he will always get you goals, albeit as some have mentioned often against average teams rather than the top teams. Apart from that is no where near the team player Keane is, who brings others into the game more, grafts, encourages others and never seems to give up and to top it off has a good scoring record. Yeah he does miss some sitters but puts away some sublime goals too. His technical ability to volley the ball and his all round team effort reminds me a lot of Mark Hughes when he used to be a similar player at united and like Keane a great professional also.<BR/><BR/>Needless to say I like our Keano, and so what if he makes strange hand signals constantly, thats his way of communicating and someone has to speak up to the ref for the rest of the team its part and parcel of the ongoing psychology with the referee during the game to let him no youre watching his every decision. Take away that expression and passion and you've lost half of Keano. Good example to the youngsters and other squad players imo, never complained when was dropped by Jol, grafted back to make the place of Berba's partner his own and looks to have the best chemistry with the Bulgarian, even Berba seems to have less passing options when he’s Keanos not on the pitch.<BR/><BR/>Not to say Defoe's attitude stinks, because he's also been exemplary in the way he's gone about making the most of his 15 or 20 minutes here and there and scored his fair share, keeping his head down fair play but sorry STILL prefer what Keane offers. Defoe is far too predictable and seems to have less strength on the ball than Keano who seems to hold defenders off better when on the ball. You feel Defoe is more effective towards the end of the game when there's tired legs or else with fresh legs harrying him from the beginning of the game seems easier to track and contain than Keane who drifts and drops looking to pick the ball up much deeper and with his flicks although often exaggerated and annoying at times, keeps defenders guessing more than Defoe who just puts his head down and heads one way – forward trying to find little holes beyond defenders that aren’t always there to exploit with the majority of the better Premiership defender being able to match him for pace as long as they stay right on him, although I love the way he shuffles and gets his shots off quickly, but even then often makes greedier decisions shooting from impossible angles and distances instead of looking to put a team mate in, that’s just the way he is a little predator.<BR/><BR/>And I would like JD to stay, but if he wants to leave, let him while we can get some decent wonga back. Ramos has actually been very smart playing the psychological "ball is in his court" game knowing he ain’t signed his contract...we'll see. If he does leave though despite our need to strengthen other areas, still believe we need 4 good strikers and would love that Benzema kid from Lyon to come in, phenomenal potential and can’t turn down that kind of talent if he's encouraging us to go after him...but only if Defoe leaves that is who's more than good enough for our 3rd choice striker for me if he wants to stay.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23687321.post-56221330664520850072008-01-09T02:06:00.000+01:002008-01-09T02:06:00.000+01:00Just out of curiosity.. why do gooners always say ...Just out of curiosity.. why do gooners always say we make ourselves look like idiots when we show a bit of passion towards our team?<BR/><BR/>I know there`s not much to be passionate about with your pretty boy foreign squad but that doesn`t mean you have to put your misguided enthusiasm towards us.<BR/><BR/>Carling Cup Final 2008:<BR/>Tottenham 3 - 1 Everton<BR/><BR/>BIOYFC!<BR/>COYS!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23687321.post-79178953485538587572008-01-09T01:02:00.000+01:002008-01-09T01:02:00.000+01:00Sell Defoe and get it over with. Never done enough...Sell Defoe and get it over with. Never done enough. He's played as a super sub for good reason. <BR/><BR/>When Keane doesn't score, he generally makes things happen elsewhere on the pitch as does Berbs. Defoe tends more to wait around the box or make offside runs.<BR/><BR/>Lennon will never be a ronaldo. He's just not in that class. He hit the ground running when he arrived so some people thought he would develop(me included) into twice the player but I don't think he has anymore to offer. He's too often not quick enough to deliver the killer pass after a run but crucially does not possess a great shot. A bit one dimensional. Still young though and may yet surprise us.<BR/><BR/>Bent looks like a potential rebrov II but the price wasn't his idea and let's be honest; he hasn't been given much chance to show what he can do and given that Berbs is the one blocking his chances, we can hardly blame bent for that. He too may yet surprise us.<BR/><BR/>Although I've always liked Chimbomba, there's sometimes something worryingly ragged about his play and he can get caught too far upfield on occasion. <BR/><BR/>I suspect that Ramos/Comolli? is looking to snatch the money being offered for Defoe & Chimbo soon enough and if they put the money into a dogs bollocks midfielder, you won't hear me complaining.<BR/><BR/>I also have a feeling that Ramos's Spurs, one year from now, will be a quite different team, assuming he can wrestle the purchasing reins away from Comolli. I wonder if Comolli still feels he's in a position to pull rank on the manager?<BR/><BR/>Hope not.ELhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11264932149781351329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23687321.post-31075087939928836492008-01-08T21:48:00.000+01:002008-01-08T21:48:00.000+01:00pompey - very well stated!

Statistically he only just edges it - before this season Robbie netted about once every 2.4 games; jermaine one in 2.7. And when he first came to the Lane, I thought Defoe was potentially a great goalscorer (in the tradition of Greavsie and Lineker). Ok he can't hold the ball up, but he appeared to have all the other qualities: blistering pace, a cracking shot, a high on-target ratio, balance, bravery, etc. But, then, especially watching from the stands, it's clear his game has one great drawback: he lacks a football brain. I don't mean ordinary intellect - god knows Gazza was as thick as pigshit off the pitch, but on it was a PhD. No JD - or to give him his full name: Jermaine Defoe Offside - is as dumb as a day old doughnut. <BR/>Clever Keano - for all his irritating flicky-flicky whiney-whiney act at times - creates much more. Horrible term, but "assists" is not a word often attached to JD. Robbie (and Berba) tick that box loads. <BR/>If fit and on-form, RK vs JD is a no-brainer for me. But I will be more than happy if the little 'un proves me wrong.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23687321.post-79931753766231358122008-01-08T20:26:00.000+01:002008-01-08T20:26:00.000+01:00Yeah, wot Kiwomya said.Yeah, wot Kiwomya said.Wrighty7https://www.blogger.com/profile/11066942899830871365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23687321.post-49888405728964206672008-01-08T19:56:00.000+01:002008-01-08T19:56:00.000+01:00Lets face facts here guys, there is no point you g...Lets face facts here guys, there is no point you getting all excited about the Carling Cup because you only look like idiots when the inevitable happens.<BR/><BR/>Eduardo must be creaming his pants with the thought of running wild against Kaboul, Dawson and Robbo.<BR/><BR/>Not only have you got their kids to contend with but I swear Comolli must still be on Arsenal's payroll, he's destroying THFC from within.
