Darren Bent - worth every penny

[taylorsworkrate]

His first goal today was an absolutely brilliant finish.

I'm staggered the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool have never tried to sign him.

[PaulWinch again]

More than worth every penny.

[Olneythelonely]

I suggested him as my player of the season a few weeks back, and hardly anybody agreed with me.  Anybody disagree now?

I said that he came a close second.

[pauliewalnuts]

He's fucking brilliant. It really is as simple as that.

God only knows how things might had panned out, had O'Neill bought him when he went to Sunderland for a modest 10m.

I still think MON made the right decision in signing Heskey instead.

The season he moved to Sunderland the goals for us really dried up after January. With the amount of chances we created that year we could have really threatened the upper echelons of the table. So short sighted of MON not to have seen him as the final piece in the jigsaw.

[Brend'Watkins]

Thank the Gods we've got him.  He is invaluable as we look like we've always got a goal in us with him there, without him, we would be nothing as an attacking force.

thats it though. MON would never have bought him. Not a MON type player

[Brian Taylor]

Where would we be without him?
Need to concentrate on keeping him now.

[ozzjim]

The first today was awesome. Would be second in my player of the season chart now.

Whoever was responsible for getting that signature on the contract deserves the freedom of the city.

Although I agree we should have bought him then, he was also sold by everyones "better then MON manager". Today showed him at his best and worse. One of the best natural finishers in the league and we need that. But one of the worst at holding the ball when the team are being stifled or penned back.

We need to build the team around him now though. Wingers or attacking fullbacks and CM's who can thread the ball though to him in the channels and someone who can get up the field to support him depending on the formation.

[The Situation]

Thank God we have Darren Bent.

We haven't had a goalscorer since Dwight Yorke.

I love Bent so much... both his goals today were sublime. Great finishes.

Was it his choice? Would the board have sanctioned the £10mil as apparently he had spent the over the seasons budget with his summer purchases of Milner, Young and Cueller IIRC.

I am quite sure you have made this up.
