Darren Bent Signs for Aston Villa


Recommended Posts

£18m isn't that much for a striker who has scored 32 goals in 58 games for Sunderland in the premier league. Especially for a team like Villa who is desperatly trying to avoid relegation. They are probably secure now if they get him.

 

If he scores. Very strange move for the player.

Why would he wanna join Villa? There s****. Not that Sunderland isn't s****.

 

Apparently relegation struggle is better than playing for European football with the Mackems.

How is this a good price for the mackems? They bought him for £10m and he scores the majority of their goals (although he's having a poor spell at the minute). They're pushing for Europe and in a world where Milner and Lescott go for a combined £50m......this is a bad price.

Jones & Bent did not work

Gyan & Bent did not work

He clearly didn't like living there, he has been more to Newcastle in his time there then in Sunderland.

No one wants to live in Sunderland if they could choose.

Bruce has a plan. Maybe spend it on N'Zogbia, Sessegnon and a cheap striker? Its a massive gamble. Especially with Welbeck going back to Man United this summer.

Bent's a funny one. He's a very good striker, but I don't think he's ever formed an effective partnership with anybody, so you're basically consigned to 451 if you want to play him, and I'm not sure if he scores enough goals on his own to warrant that. 18M raising to 24M is a very good price though. If he wants to go (which seems to be the case seeing as his form has dipped dramatically recently) it's a good deal for the Mackems. Not sure who they will replace him with though, which is the key question...
