We already have striker that can score plenty of goals from crosses, but apparently we're trying to offload him at a massive loss

I'd rather have Giles De Bilde back than sign a carthorse like Carroll
Not sure that is entirely correct. Bent thrives more of balls played through from behind rather than out and out crosses.


I agree.  I'm not sure Bent has ever thrived on crosses especially when you think back through his career.  His most successfull spells where when he was playing in reasonably direct counter attacking teams.

well you say that, go back and watch how many of his goals came from crosses from Downing, Young, Walker etc

If Lambert wants a player the board will back him. However, I think they've already been burned quite badly by the whole part exchange thing with the deal for Ireland. I think they'd sooner just trouser the cash then take on someone elses problem. Plus, I don't see in a million years him going to Liverpool this year or in the future. One more good year with us and Benteke will have far better offers.

I reckon that Lech haven't accepted our bid yet and that's if we have even bid.

Maybe we're poles apart.
