Jermain Defoe (to Toronto FC as of 28 February 2014) - CONFIRMED

[CoopsieDeadpool]

Good luck to Defoe in MLS. Overall, my memories of him will be positive since he scored so many big goals for us. "Crouch heads it to Defoe..." It wasn't world class, but you gotta admit it had its moments!

Yep, kept me awake many nights lol

I just want to get it through as fast as possible. He did a lot of good things for the club but its time to move on.

The time he spent in offside position could well be about a year.

I fully expect us to replace him this window.

It would sloppy, really sloppy if we don't.

No, it would be Tottenham, really Tottenham.

That's why I am worried.

 

[Geyzer Soze]

Not to worry, i have things covered. I've sent this info to THFC ...

 

[Pasadena Spurs]

Toronto FC has been using him to convince players to join them....

Think it's more to do with some stupid journo making stuff up. The idea that Drake is convincing Defoe to move to Toronto is laughable. I doubt he does more than a couple of visits back home a year and lives the good life in warmer weather... like all the other celebrities from northern climes!

Which goal was that?

 

[templespur]

IDK if this has been said already but now the rumor is Toronto is also going to add arguably the best player on team USA, Michael Bradley. Seems strange to me he is going to MLS but not to an American team lol, although Toronto is pretty damn close to an American city

Good luck JD

Even in his last days for a club and leaving as the club fifth all-time goalscorer people feel the need to talk shit about him. Makes me genuinly really really sad. Good luck in Toronto Defoe. You have served us well. Hope you make the WC and have one last swansong. You deserve it!

Who now lives in LA...

Drake spends a lot of time back home, I have a Cousin who lives out there and she spends a lot of time with him (or more a shared group of friends plus him).

A really nice guy apparently.

I actually spoke to him on the phone a couple of months back... I just asked if he nailed Rihanna to which he said "damn right I did".

Then that was it.

Bizzare.

I assumed it was a wind up but I have since seen a video of him since saying it to me on the phone.

SSN have that he is to join on Monday on the breaking news banner

 

[zicomerc]

When will Defoe leave? The MLS doesn't start till March. Dempsey is at Fulham till then so he could stay here till then. Or will he leave now to settle in Toronto?

 

[felmani26]

Noooooooooooooooooo!!!!

It is a done deal.

Stick that in your ITK.

Ha!

 

[Martinhotspur]

I like Defoe sad to see him go mainly because he went to the same school as me.

Ha!

Hopefully he'll be at the Lane on Saturday and we can express our gratitude by organising a minute's standing ovation in honour of the goals he scored for us, followed by a 21-flag salute in honour of his positional play.
