ClaretFondu Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Why would they sell Huth? He's a key player for them Well Bent is a key player for...... Yeah, good point, I'm beat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyBM Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 (edited) to be fair, although id like us to keep bent, kenwyne jones wouldnt be a bad replacement, but then theres a chance he could become another heskey... EDIT: earlier today on talkspalk they was talking about us either getting jones or crouch back for bent as a straight swap Edited January 31, 2013 by AndyBM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sir_gary_cahill Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 It wouldn't of mattered if he played Bent, because Bent doen't fit in the system. And Benteke contributes more to the overall play, as does Weimann. Who cares about general play? Striker's main job is to score goals and bent does it week in week out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AValon Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 I would only trade bent for ROBERT HUTH and Charlie Adam Imagine our goals from corners ratio might go up considerably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flamingsombrero Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 (edited) Hopefully we'll make a last ditch attempt at prise Charles N'Zogbia away from Charles N'Zogbia FC. Edited January 31, 2013 by flamingsombrero 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LondonLax Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Agree - if you have a bloke like Bent you build the team around him. - Its not really that complicated Especially when you have Bent AND £23m to build the side around him. Relegation should not have been an issue this season if we had a competent manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaCas Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 He can't play for another team this season. Is that definite? Maybe they will loan him back to us lol. I reckon he is off in the summer anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 I don't see why anyone would buy Benteke now when they can get him on the cheap when we get relegated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpTheVilla26 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 We are now the same odds as QPR to go down. What a mess our owner has got us into. I blame Lambert as well as he blew the whole transfer kitty in the summer and most of it on dross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
