The_Steve Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 When a is said and done, we are more like to score with Bent on the pitch than Gabby/Weimann. Yet Weimann has scored more than Bent this season. Go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet Weimann has scored more than Bent this season. Go figure. And weimman has played more. We've only played 2 prem games, bit early to use that to prove the original suggestion is rubbish.

It is too early, obviously, but I still doubt we'd score more with Bent in the team. He just hasn't got it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillakevBromsgrove Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 If picked my money would be on Bent to score today, yes he missed the chances on Wednesday but after thinking about it since he still managed to get the chances in the first place, law of averages says he will bury one if presented with a similar chance.

samjp26 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Seems like Lambert might be trying to boost his confidence some, reckon he might start today after his comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonic_bouma Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I'd start him today. For me the chances against Orient were not nailed on sitters and I thought his runs off the defender were better than anything Gabby or Weimann have shown this season. Play him up top and surround him with Cole Grealish and Nzogbia to play him in and he will score today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumstopdogs Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I'd have more respect for Lambert today if he dropped Gabby today and played Bent. At least Bent is getting into positions to score! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 In no way do I want to see him start. It is literally like starting the game with 10 men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted August 31, 2014 Moderator Share Posted August 31, 2014 Gabby is better than Bent. A good Bent has a shout at being better than a good Gabby, but the Gabby we have today is better than the Bent we have today. I will not be in the least bit sad when Benteke and Kozak are fit and Bent is no longer part of our match day squad - I will not miss him one bit - I will always miss the £40m - with that money, we could have been significantly more comfortable than we have been for the last three seasons, but instead we chose a lazy half arsed striker who was already past his best when we got him and had been found out at each of his previous clubs. Is he the worst signing in the clubs history? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pelle Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Nah, that's a bit harsh, OBE. He was good the first season and a half or so. But I agree with what you write about him today. Not better than Gabby, even if Gabby ain't very good atm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play him up top and surround him with Cole Grealish and Nzogbia to play him in and he will score today. He could play up front ahead of Bale, Modric, Xavi, Iniesta and Fabregas. He wouldn't score. He would be blowing out his arse with his hands on his hips, looking at the through balls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
