While I don't agree with quite how scathing BC has been, I do kind of agree with the general thrust of his argument. Defoe did absolutely nothing last night and was just appalling. No attempt made to drop deeper to receive the ball or press the ball, he was just always looking to be on the shoulder of the last defender, which was never going to work against a couple of shithouses like Agger and Skrtrltlrrltllrlrltlrl. Ade last season showed a good striker who can hold up the ball can set up as well as put away a fair few goals.
I agree that when Ade is fit he should be playing, but at the moment Defoe is the only option we have so we should get behind him. I also think that with Dempsey's form it should potentially be Ade and Defoe not either/or.
