Wasn't Bendtner also involved in an incident of damaging cars whilst pissed up in Newcastle city centre?

He's an absolute bell-end. I hope we go nowhere near.
Yes he was. But it's Newcastle so let's cut him some rope.

Points about his personality and footballing ability (both very questionable) aside, what I don't understand is he was reportedly on a huge salary at Arsenal, presumably now looking for parable/better and that doesn't compute with our policy of the last few years.

And if there is some flexibility on wages on account of it being a free transfer why on earth would you spend it on Bendtner?

I think he's crap. Believes he is much better than what he really is...a proper dump Zlatan.

He's an odd player. He's got a good international record for Denmark with essentially 1 in 2 but like Bentley seemed to start believing the hype just as gained some notoriety and became a complete cock. A 6ft 4' free agent international striker with that record, and only 26 should be well received. However he just leaves such a questionable taste in the mouth that it is hard to be happy with this move. If it comes true he better start winning us over quickly and not act the wanker we have read about these past couple of years.

At least we're being consistent in signing really shit players.

one of the few footballers to out-tool  Ireland. The only thing I can think of in mitigation is that the wheels of his Range Rover are not pink.

Can't we just press the Robbie Keane button then til September .
I'd settle for that. I'm sure Uncle Roy could persuade him.
Can you think of a single reason why LA Galaxy would want to lend us their main striker halfway through their season?

Because we're Aston Villa and every ex-player that we want back would surely want to come back and play for us. They love the club as much as we do. See:

Barry G
Milner J
Young A

and in a season or two you'll be able to add

Cahill G

to that list

I think Bendtner is good enough to replace Luiz in defence for Brazil.

He's not very good, but neither are we. Fitting.

He'll be fresh and "up for the challenge", no doubt.

Hopefully the smell will have worn off from his time in Small Heath

Whilst I don't think he's as bad a player as people say he is, you would have thought his off the field antics would have put Lambert and other manager's off.

And Fonz, Alby and Messi II when they are just past great!
