Defoe to be out for about 6 weeks after tomorrow to have groin surgery, even more likely we'll sign a striker now.
I never quite get the way people use the word "believe" in regard to ITK. I keep reading dissertations on whether people "believe" what adiepf is saying. It's unclear and doesn't really say anything.
I am confident, because of the way he expresses himself and his long membership here, that adiepf is not lying. He's reporting stuff that he's being told as accurately as multiple memories and the principle of Chinese Whispers permit.
But people keep blurring this with two completely different questions: (a) whether adiepf's source is telling him codswallop, fibbing to him, trying to show off or just spinning tales for reasons of his/her own and (b) whether Fabiano is actually going to end up signing for Tottenham.
The result is total confusion and non-communication. If Fabiano doesn't sign, it doesn't make adiepf's info wrong or make him a liar, it just means that either things changed at the last minute or adiepf's source was stringing him along or - more likely - exaggerating.
What I don't get if why so mny people seem to be incapable of distinguishing between these things - it's not difficult and it doesn't require a powerful intellect, just a bit of basic calm and observation - and why people get so tied up in rage about what's basically a bit of a third hand leak from the club.
I have my doubts that he's an upgrade on what we have.
There is no logic on these forums, they really are devoid of much rational thought. For instance there was 3 pages on how Fabiano's wave at the end of the Braga game was deemed good indication of whether he was going to sign for us.
hilarious.
