Defoe has 8 goals in 34 appearances for England. 4 of those were against Andorra, 2 of them were against Trinidad & Tobago, and 1 of them against Kazakhstan (the other, and most important, was his first goal in Poland 2004). Quite plainly he is not and will never be International class. And if Carlton Cole is an International striker, then I'm a handicapped black juggler called Olaf in the Tibetan State Circus.
Just why are you not an international football manager Mr Easy?
