I think this is a reflection on Jol's judgement.
Defoe is a much better player than Bent, yet he seems to be 4th choice.
Why sign Bent in the first place.
Jol's comments are disgraceful.
If anyone should leave Spurs it's Jol.
Which he will soon.
He's taken Spurs as far as he can, time to bring in a better manager.

Jermaine Defoe has all the right to be frustrated at the lack of first team opportunites at Spurs, particularly because they are also struggling, and yet Jol has failed to call upon him, when he is precisely the one who could change things around. Its a bitter pill for him to swallow and I believe he would have more first team opportunites at Man Utd then at Spurs. If I were him, I wouldnt sign a new contract especially after being threatened by the manager that he would rot in the reserves if a new contract wouldnt be signed. Thats just out of order

If I was SAF, I'd seriously consider buying Defoe. He'd also fit into an Arsenal side perfectly.

yeah he would but it would be a step down, i reckon he should try and get in the spurs side, dont think jol likes Bent and berbatov as a combination so if he gets his head down and impresses more than keane he;ll be in the side

I like Defoe but you have to wonder what he is doing in training not to impress managers. He not a regular for Spurs or England. When you are given slim chances the nature of the game is to be ruthlessly impressive so managers can't overlook you. I think he's right to say he wants to stay and fight for his place it should make him get his head down and become a tougher player.

why is jol constantly sticking with keane?? he hasnt given defoe a chance except playing him for the last 15 mins each game. robbie keane hasnt even scored this season, so the mind boggles why defoe and berbatov arent together. darren bent is a good player, but when you have attacking options at a club like spurs do they dont need to spend £16mil on ANOTHER striker, silly money when we desperately need a left mid and get rid of lee yuong pyo!

I would like to see Berbatov and Defoe up front with Keane playing a similar role to Joe Cole, cutting in from the left. Lennon on the right, Zokora and Huddlestone central midfield. Also think it might be time to give Cerny or Alnwick a go

Defoe is not a team player...simple as that!! He contributes nothing unless it might put him personally on the score sheet and when the chips are down, he hides. Martin knows that, and so did Sven. No other managers will touch him either - if he's that good, then why has no-one come looking for him?? And when you look at his time on the pitch and his role as a pure striker, its not that amazing!

Keane works his nuts off on the pitch and motivates other players...Berbatov links play together and creates for other players. Defoe????
