and trying to claim he setup jj for his goal against brum almost made me piss myself laughing, good one!
sounds like you might have a bladder infection, best you see a doctor quick smart.
comparing torres and bent just shows you up really
one has come from a foreign league to a foreign country and has banged in the goals like a striker should
the other has played in english football all his life, played in the premiership for a few years now, played against the same defences year after year, has nothing to adapt to apart from playing football with new team mates yet looks so out of place on a football field its unbelievable
whatever bent may or may not be in the future, right now he's dog shit and there's no denying that

You just wanna try and make him laugh and hold out a pint glass.
If he'd had a run of ten to a dozen games and failed to deliver the goods it would be a different matter.
Ok, so he needs a good run in the side - at the expense of our league position or the Waffa cup? :shrug:And even then I seem to remember it took a certain Mr. Lineker in the region of ten games to get his first goal for us. And Teddy looked rather hopeless in his first few games until we adapted our style of play to utilize the wingers instead of playing through the middle.
Bent needs to be given a good run in the team to build confidence and so the other players can start playing to his strengths.

The only way i can see Bent salvaging his career at Spurs is that either a) We adapt our play style to suit him, tell Berbatov and Keane to let Bent run the show up front, pair him off and resolutely keep sending the ball down, time after time, until eventually Bent might click with one of them, or b) Drop him to the ressies til the end of this season then let him get his run in the team during friendlies or whatever we do in the off season.
Personally, no matter how much i'd like the lad to start scoring, i don't want to risk a single result between now and May.
Yes, the price-tag was excessive, but then strikers always have cost more. What did £6m-£7m get you last summer? It got you Camara, Nugent, Chopra, Smith, Mido—strikers who'd done very well in the Championship but can't cut it at the top level, a midfield clogger masquerading as a striker, a potentially very good striker with major fitness issues. £25m got you Torres. £11m got you Yakubu, who's tended in the past to look great for half a season before mysteriously turning into a donkey at New Year. Or you could splurge £70k a week on Viduka, if you happen to be Newcastle. Or strike lucky with Santa Cruz if you happen to be Sparky.
If Bent's one trick is scoring lots of goals that's fine by me. Does Torres have too many others?
You expect sense from the Mail?
:rofl:Torres can beat a man, make goals out of nothing and is a better finisher
