http://www.torontosun.com/2014/10/23/mother-at-the-centre-of-jermain-defoe-drama-sources

this is amazing though :mjlol:

Defoe checked out fine every time, the informed source added, but everyone warned against his mother.

St. Helen, the unturned stone in Toronto FC’s biggest off-field saga yet, was the principal reason Queens Park Rangers’ summer swoon turned into a Clash tune for TFC fans.

After all, St. Helen has always appeared to have influence over what her son does. Multiple English media reports undeniably outline the mother-son combo’s extremely tight bond.

There she was, outside the players’ dressing room after most home fixtures — sometimes receiving a kiss on the cheek from top Toronto FC suits who were beginning to receive a first-hand look at Defoe’s and his mother’s close relationship.

The would-be MLS record transfer terms, which Sportsnet first reported to be worth $11 million, were eventually rejected by TFC’s top brass despite Defoe’s mother allegedly agreeing to “terms” for her son days before the player’s representatives knew anything about a potential move.

At that point, though, Defoe’s mother was throwing what a well-placed source described as a “tantrum”. In other words, she wanted out of Toronto

In an instant, MLSE’s winter “wooing” of St. Helen, as chronicled by the Toronto Star, no longer mattered. When St. Helen took off for London in August, Defoe’s heart wasn’t in it anymore.

word to @Emperor_ReinScarf , make multi-million dollar deals subject to a females whims, brehs :leostare:

Why would Balo be perfect for Arsenal? :patrice: all man does is dribble deep, doesn't help with midfield, takes long shots he can't make :manny:

Partly due to the lack of service he receives.

The touches around the box and his vision are evident, at Arsenal players see 1 and 2 at Liverpool that isnt the case, he doesn't really get the return pass.

His effort can be terrible and that's one reason Welbeck has been good for us. Perfect is a stretch but he would be decent at Arsenal with the right attitude.
