If we get our money back you have a deal!

-Subject to us actually having 4 strikers by the end of the window!

I'd be happy to give Bent away and be rid of paying his wages. Only my opinion but we'll never achieve anything with him in the side. He can't play with anyone esle up front as he doesn't know how to pass the ball and despite what people say he actually has no pace at all, can't head, can't read or anticipate play. Sadly just not good enough.

Totally agree. Get rid of him but only when we have a replacement.

thats a bit harch on the boy,but 2 seasons at the lane he hasnt really repayed us!

i wish him the best of luck where ever he ends up.

Unfortunatley selling Bent won't be an option if it leaves us with only Campbell as a striker in the uefa cup.

Well its been a good news day for me, Gerrard gets arrested for assault in my home town, and now Villa could be set to sign their second Marlon Harewood! I like Bent but clearly we need someone better, although that applies for various positions within the squad at the moment!

Funny hearing all the bent haters...... Not moaning 6 weeks ago when he bagged 8 or 9 goals in 6 games were you? Not moaning when his goals lifted us from 2 points upto 14 points and out of a relegation spot were you?
Give the lad a chance. For some strange reason, he's had to make way for a useless lazy talentless russian pile of shit over recent weeks. If we are to get rid of anyone in the window, it shud be pavlychenko.

Selling bent would be a massive mistake, if we get him service he will score goals. we need another striker yes but we cant sell him!

Have him for half price.

see ya !

Anyone but a world class striker is going to find things challenging if we carry on with 4-5-1.

Can't see us selling him at a loss and can't see Villa spending £16m on him (he's not worth it). All-in-all, can't see it happening.

If either Bent or Pavlyuchenko are sold, whatever you think of them, it should only be if there are replacements lined up and perhaps even already signed. We can't have a situation like the sumemr window. If both are sold, highly unlikely, then 3 forwards must be lined up. If one is sold, two forwards must be lined up.

I don't think we are going to continue with 451. Harry made the telling comment recently that in the right system Modric can play behind 2 forwards. Either Bellamy or Defoe will sign for us I am certain, and if Bent or Pav leaves, a number 9 will come in to play with Bellamy or Defoe. To make the new more attacking outlook possible, either a RB will come in to allow Corluka that midfield berth that he asked for a couple of months back, or a DM will come in, a really good one.

wouldnt be gutted if he was sold but would be nice not to lose a lot of money on selling him.. but is pointless talking about it as spurs would then need to bu 2strikers as we're stuggling at the moment with 2 1/2..(frazier a boy and pav cup tied in uefa!)

Reading these comments reminds me of some of the things that used to be said about Kanoute. Kanoute is a first rate striker, yet nobody had a good word to say for him. How many of you would like him back now.

I wish I am as optimistic as you with respect to the signing of Bellamy or Defoe, and the 'really good' DM. I believe that we do need the players highlighted by you and most importantly, a really good DM. We are definitely in a relegation battle, and from what I have seen of our players so far, there is no prima facie evidence that they have the required mental toughness to survive the battle ahead. I am extremely worried and I have spent my Xmas break analysing the league table as well as hoping that those around us will keep dropping points like us. Hopefully, Middlesborough will drop 3 tonight just like Blackburn dropped 2 yesterday! I am beginning to sound pathetic.

It's great to see you back in full flow BBLG!

10 mill and he's yours..........i know he ain't worth it but perhaps we can fool them

I don't know why people want to blame Bent for everything that is wrong with the World but you know what Spurs fans are like .

Selling our top scorer doesn't make sense to me , even if it finances the purchase of the preferred strike partner of the aforementioned Russian .

We may have to resort to route-1 so I'd be looking at poaching a target man like Crouch or Kevin Davis .

Your telling me that you are excited by the prospect of having Bellamy at the lane? I would rather keep Bent and Pav, after all Bent is still one of the leauges top scorers at the minute .... how many has Bellamy scored?
