rodders0223 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Bent is an easy target right now. Just feel its unnecessary, we are playing well, lets enjoy and get behind the players. If someone was willing to pay Bents wages for the final year, I'd snap their hand off, but they aren't so we have him for the season. Best to build his confidence, get him playing as the 20 goal a season man (in all comps) he could be. Yeah, let's sell Benteke and Kozak now shall we?

You learn something new every day, I had no idea that those sort of stats were available. I have to admit that does put the comparison in a different light in terms of goals scored, I'd looked at appearances which were similar but I can't deny that minutes played is a better comparison. Doesn't change my view on Bent but as I say it does change the comparison. Thanks for providing the links. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Bent probably would have played more minutes if he wasn't blowing out his arse after 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Wait, wait. Why is it okay to slag off players over and over again who aren't even playing badly (Westwood this year, Vlaar last year) but when a player is so clearly over the hill (Bent) the same people are defending him. Any reason to have a go at Lambert really. Isn't there like 1 person having a go at lambert on this thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wazzap24 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Not even a sniff of getting rid. Gutted. Says all you need to know, plenty of teams desperate for a striker and no interest - not even on twitter Come on Arry, he really is a triffic player - honest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both are out for a while longer, i just suggested we try to get best out of Bent.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
