Add to this the fact that Advocaat played him as a defensive winger at Sunderland & this helped them avoid the drop from an almost impossible situation, & that tells you a bit more of Defoe's ability to adapt to formations, styles & tactics. It's absolute nonsense to suggest that talking about him is fact resistant romanticism if you can't provide a single fact to show why.Odd.....maybe you dont remember seeing Defoe dropping deep to our corner flag to help in defence, and picking up the ball from the halfway line, running to the 18 yard box and smashing balls into the top corner.
One of the liveliest strikers who has ever played for Spurs.
An absolute energy package with enough left in the tank to make an explosive finish, with either foot at the end of it.
Soldado and Janssen could play in Pochs system....but not Defoe? Hilarious....I wonder if you think Berbatov (in his prime) would be good in this team?
I do, despite the fucker never being able run more than 5 meters.....I bet you do too. Which would make your Defoe analysis rather "fact redundant".
As for him not having the legs any more...he's still running around every Saturday in the PL, rarely injured & still banging them in for fun. He has started & played the whole 90 minutes in every game this season, except one.
