Darren Bent....

[zero]

Defo have him over AJ, but lets be honest. His wage demands have ruled him out of consideration......However, if the old rumours are true about Owen and his wages being part subsidised I certainly wouldn't be unhappy.

Welcome to the forum.

Thanks Zero
I really appreciate it!!

What do you think??

Would he be worth a cheecky bid of around 8-9m. Would you sell AJ an bring this lad in. Does he have the potentail to score more goals than AJ??

I'd love to see him at goodison. He's quick, big an strong. decent in the air an a good goal scorer. Not had the best of times at spurs an might relish the chance of a move. As well Ramos seems to want to bring his own players in.

Do we need a new striker, or is the priority else were.

What do you think??

I should hope so, Lescott scores more than AJ

 

[Dom1878]

ye we do need another striker i would be happy to have him .... would u have bent or owen?

Id have Owen, he has proven that he can score, where as Bent has, but it was for Charlton . Also Bents wages will be around owen,s but bents price tag will be higher.

I really think Darren Bent is overrated, he seems to need loads of chances to score. I would pick AJ every time.

Surely its harder to score goals at charton then real madrid!

spurs are strange team, and since from what i have read..mostly all speculation from them..they are going to be bringing in quite a lot of foreign players over the summer..what place for bent then?

swap him for jackie johnson haha

What has bent ever done v whats owen ever done?

Easy one.

Play a whole season without getting injured this century.

Bent has said he likes playing for Spurs and wants to fight for his place. I can't really see him going anywhere but NUFC. The guy makes 35k a week more than Yak and is not as good, we are never getting him.

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Trouble is do you want someone in the twilight of their career or somebody who is doing the business when given the chance. Bent learning curve could increase exponentially playing for us. I can't see a ex-Red playing for us I'm sorry.

 

[Sharpys top lip]

The thing is about this one........

Spurs sold Defoe to pompy in january.

Keane is suposedly off to the r/s for 18m

An Berbetov is off to Utd for 25m.

Could you realy see spurs selling all 4 strikers in the space of 6 months. I can't, their no way all these will go throught.

The Keane deal is ment to be nearly done, an SAF thinks he'll get his man to.

I'd love Bent here, hes a class act. But someone will miss out.

What do you think????

 

[GhostOfDixie]

I think Ramos wants his own side. All 4 were signed by other managers.

 

[del78]

Unless he is guaranteed first team football I can see him going.To whom?..dunno. But can't see him warming the spurs bench again this year.

Owen : 384 Apps, 194 Goals

Bent : 256 Apps, 100 Goals

I think Owen has a slightly better ratio, but Bent would probably work better with Yakubu upfront, simply because of his strength and pace.

I cant fault that. Coming round to the bent way of thinking but I dont think he'd join us. Not yet anyway. Not unless we got some serious $$$
