Absolutely totally NOT!

The guy cannot get in the Aston Villa team and when he did he hardly touched the ball. He score a couple, but I would rather have Dempsey up top right now then Bent.

No, spend the money that Bent would cost towards another player, one that would benefit the team.

Richard Keys made a good point, that the fee they paid was £18 million rising to £24million and Sunderland didnt break even with this deal as we got some of this money, but the clauses in the transfer fee included appearances and he is 4 appearances from another large payment it seems

Does anyone know what Bents highest league finish is?

You can build a team round Bent and he will score goals, but make no mistake you'll have a shite team.

I think Bent is very underrated by Spurs fans.

He's actually only mostly shit rather than completely shit.

Would rather go for Benteke, that boy would be a great fit in our team

Watched Villa vs Arsenal and he was hassling their defense over and over again. He's not the most clinical or technical striker, but he sure was a handful for the scum's defense. Made them very uncomfortable.

I know 5 year olds that could make the scums defence uncomfortable.

Just heard Jamie Redknapp knock Darren Bent because he isn't a team player and then stats reveal that only two players touch the ball less Jermaine Defoe and Graham and yet Jamie thinks one of them is a great player and it isnt the one who passes to his teammates

Probably available in January for knock down price,i believe he is a good goalscorer and would suit our system better this time around. He played his best football in the counter attacking Charlton team. I know everybody would like the Cavani's and falco's in this world but being realistic we could also stretch to another midfielder if we got Bent cheap enough.

He would offer the exact same qualities as Defoe, someone who can score goals but at the detriment of the overall team performance. There is a reason Lambert is leaving him out, which is the fact he does f**k all for the team other than score one in every 4 chances.

No thanks.
