Bent injured?/England squad

[olofmilosevic]

I for one would be really happy if no Villa player ever played for England again!! Barry,Milner,young,downing all suddenly became unsettled at villa after they became England regulars!

[Bent Neilsens Screamer]

Clever...keep him under wraps for Fulham on Sat instead of that pointless midweek friendly.

To right, everyone else does it so why shouldn't we? We'd be up shit street if he got injured, so why take the risk?

Its been going on since Gerry Hitchens!!

I hope he recovers for Fulham glad he has pulled out of the England squad pointless match anyway.

England or no England....Bent 20 plus goals this season, we at very best make Europa league, either of Manc clubs or Chelski offer £35 in the summer, Villa say no way, Bents being offered Champions league football, he goes for £40 million.

Not sure.....did he look injured when he came off?? Kinda brings it home when you see the squad: Downing, Young, Barry, Cahill, Milner and Walker.....that's some team we could've had!!

Don't forget Crouchy

Cheery, but not inconceivable thought.  Same with any of the youngsters if they fulfil their potential.

Hopefully the injury isn't too serious and he'll be fine next week.

Mick McCarthy has gone off on one about the timing of this freindly and quite right too, it's absolutley ridiculous.

Like someone else said earlier, i would'nt care less if we did'nt have another player picked for England again. Still, i suppose it gives the F.A another chance to pay off Wembley.

DB has just tweeted that he has had to pull out because his shoulder has been bothering him and he wants to be fully fit for KO on Saturday

[Phil from the upper holte]

As long as he does the biz for villa fuck England and that pointless friendly

I agree, but I was concerned he'd been dropped and as a consequence it would make him unhappy at Villa if he wasn't received England recognition.

This is Bent's tweet:

"Gutted I had to pull out of the England squad, the shoulder has been bothering me and wanna make sure I'm fully fit for the big KO next week"
