Why 4th? For me he's by far and away our 1st choice sub-striker, making him our 3rd choice forward and, for all those saying Bent is above him in the pecking order - why?
Lets add these things up (and no, i've said it before, i'll say it again, i'm no statto) - If Bent fell over, he'd miss the floor. If he wanted to commit suicide, he'd put the gun in his mouth, pull the trigger and wake up in hospital with gunshot wounds to the lower abdomen.
Defoe, however, is far, far more accurate, able to hit the keeper time after time - you can't buy that kind of dead shot!! Ronaldinho hitting the bar? pffft! Try hitting the keeper that many times on the trot, Mr Bunny!
Either way, Bent should've been the perfect foil for Berbatov but turns out he isn't even on the same page as the Bulgarian, and the same for Keane - his quick running and superb passing should be what Bent lives on, but he can't seem to understand our little Robbies accent or something, i dunno.
Defoe is still a player i hope finds his shooting boots again because when he's on form he's fantastic to watch but he's not played with a smile for months and months now.
Yes, both of them need games and confidence, but as of right now, i'd pick Defoe over Bent any day of the week and, if it came down to it, i'd let Bent go before him (truth be told, i would've stopped bidding for him at £10m MAXIMUM, but i'm not the one with the cheque book i guess)
So, someone want to explain why they see Defoe as second fiddle to Bent in the squad? :shrug:
Interested, that's all :up:
