When you sign any player you're buying into a percentage - their proven worth to a team against their potential worth to a team. Bent's proven worth is much much higher than his potential worth because he's repeatedly proven at this level. Carroll's potential may be great but it's a massive price to pay for such a small percentage of proven worth.

If Bent was a panic buy and overpriced media people what does that make Carroll.
Perfectly fine as its Kenny and Liverpool no doubt.

To be honest if offered bent or Carroll I'd have gone for bent as he is a natural goalscorer and has good temperament and has performed at this level for many years- Carroll is a good player no doubt but at the price not  near as good a deal as bent will hopefully be.

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp on Sky Sports News says there is "no chance" of the club signing a striker tonight, nor any chance of Peter Crouch leaving for Newcastle as Andy Carroll's replacement. "We were never desperate," he adds. Expect three arrivals to Spurs and the sale of the big man within the hour, then. Joke. Obviously. from the BBC

Torres £50m Carroll £35m Bent £18m. When are the press hacks going to lie down in the VP centre circle and beg for forgiveness from the Villa fans & staff, for questioning the fee of the 3rd highest scoring FAPL current player?

Joint Second now. Since that stat was posted when he signed Bent and Drogba have scored and Rooney hasn't.

As for Torres. He always reminds me of a Spanish Bent. He doesn't do much else for the team but score.

But £35mil for a less gangly Peter Crouch is very expensive.
