Supposedly we are keeping an eye on Wissam Ben Yedder.

He was in star wars clone wars I think.

If they keep saying it, one day they'll be right.

Don't mind us selling him if we look safe in the league by January. Hopefully we can get at least 15m if there are more then one clubs bidding for him. Having said that it is probably a BS story as these usually are.

Has Bent ever denied the stories?

Why does he need to bother?

So every player has to deny any transfer link about them that is peddled in the media?

Sometimes they don't deny them because itsvtheir agents who have been doing the leaking.  I don't think Darren Bent would think twice if somebody (Liverpool) wanted to give him a last big pay day and neither would his agent I'd imagine. 

I've never warmed to him particularly but he does score goals and they seem to be our problem at the moment. It'd be mad selling him in January if we are struggling.

I'm still waiting for us to be taken over by Argentinians and Ardiles to be installed as manager. As Mirror bollocks goes, that was right up there.

He was meant to be leaving last January as well.

I suppose it's possible like all transfers but if he does i can't see it being to Liverpool bearing in mind the pathetic bid they made for Dempsey.

We would be crazy to sell but if we did who would buy him?

Man Utd, Man City, Chelsea and Arsenal don't need him and I doubt he would be their sort of player.
Can't see him going back to Spurs, Liverpool and Everton couldn't afford him , that doesn't leave a lot of options.

There's always QPR but there's a chance Arry might end up there by January and he's already sold him once.

He hated living in the North East though didn't he?
