AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 If we offer him first team football (which we should not do) he would probably come. Otherwise he might have a few more convenient options. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirge Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Seems to be a debate on who says what i that vid, some think Bent says "Fulham" and the lad recording says "we'll have to see" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 He's definitely going to end up at Fulham. Jol loves him, and their new owner will push this through. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's better for him as well, except if Cisse goes and we offer him the number nine. Which we shouldn't do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuy_O Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Think it's pretty clear Pardew wants Bent, but we're only gunna bid for him right at the end when Villa will accept a lowered fee. Fulham like all the other stupid clubs seek to do their deals early, so aye he'll no doubt end up there, quite soon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Berbatov playing just in behind Bent. It will be a great combination. He'll score a ton. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Given that when he moved here, Bent built himself a gigantic new house in Cambridgeshire (where he grew up, and where his family live), if I were to put money on where he'd want to go, it'd be somewhere as close as possible. If it comes down to Fulham or your lot, I reckon he's more likely to choose Fulham in a straight choice. I've just had the strange feeling I've already posted this. I've had that feeling from the start. Bent has always seemed the type who needs to be close to home, and after his experience at Sunderland that will be even more the case. Shame really as Newcastle is like a different planet comparatively, but it's close enough that the stink still wafts over and lingers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Sell Cisse and buy Bent. Pretty much cost neutral, not much in it age-wise, the manager openly wants Bent and it's probably as close to a like-for-like swap as we could get. Staggeringly complicated.

Pretty much cost neutral, not much in it age-wise, the manager openly wants Bent and it's probably as close to a like-for-like swap as we could get. Staggeringly complicated. Well there are a few problems with that: Firstly, Bent would probably have to take a pay cut to come here and even then his pay would be significantly higher than Cisse's if you believe the figures bandied about in the Mail. Secondly, how badly does Bent want to come here ahead of other clubs based in the south? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 You're right, we might have to spend some money. Ignore that idea. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRD Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 If that's true, we will continue to save those wages and take time for the asking fee to lower even further. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 So looks as though he may have chosen Fulham first or may have just told both clubs what he wants wages wise. Can't see us paying it either if it was high enough to put Fulham off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
