DEFOE 2/1 TO SCORE ON HIS SECOND COMING
Paddy Powers Jermain Defoe Specials.
Jermain Defoes expected return to Spurs has seen bookie Paddy Power betting offer a number of bets on the England strikers second coming.
And with a record of having scored at every club on his debut Defoe is 2/1 to net in his second debut for Spurs. The second coming might even come on January 18th when Spurs meet Portsmouth and Defoe is 11/10 to score against his former club at anytime this season in league or cup.
Of the many past and present strikers to have been at White Hart Lane in the last two seasons Defoe is the 5/2 second favourite to score most Prem goals between now and the end of the season with Dimitar Berbatov at Man Utd the 2/1 favourite.
Defoes move has also seen Portsmouth cut to 3/1 to be relegated this season behind West Brom, Stoke and Blackburn.
Darren Haines, spokesman for Paddy Power, said: Portsmouths all too brief resurrection could well be over already as their stars start to desert the shinking ship. However their fans might take small respite in the fact that the bookies believe Defoes second coming at Spurs is unlikely to reap as many goals this season as he has for Pompey.
