In short not suitable at all as a centre forward in any way
Maybe we could pass the ball on the ground for him to run onto ala Cov and last saturday?

I saw he'd been linked with a couple of League One clubs. I'd actually be more in favour of Defoe than others who have been mentioned like Carroll or Wickham despite his age. He's always looked after himself very well and I think was still prolific for Rangers a couple of years ago.
Definitely worth a short term contract
Last played 90 minutes in early 2021 and has played 8 minutes of football this season in a division arguably 1-2 tiers below our current position. I’m out.

Yes, we all know what he does well, but there’s also a fair bit he can’t do very well

Daniel, not Jermain, I imagine. Robin Friday is no longer available, it seems.

Maybe we should look for Crusoe to play up front with Robinson!

Play to his strengths then? Do they lump high balls to Messi?
