Park Life 71 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Looks like he's in. What are your expectations and how will he be played? Bit of a lazy fucker and a bit moody but has a touch more pace than Cisse. Likes the ball early so Pards is super keen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StellarStripes 0 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 If shola is leaving then I hope Bent is no more than his replacement. It's a puzzle how he would fit in the side though...unless pardew is thinkin of 442 again We still need to be bringing in a top class young striker.

Christmas Tree 4827 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 (edited) I'm fairly happy and hope that a bit of love can have him banging some goals in. Edited July 17, 2013 by Christmas Tree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 7171 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 (edited) Aye, definitely a step up from Shola. But there's no chance we are dropping millions on a fee and three times Sholas wages to replace him He's coming in to play 40 games a season Edited July 17, 2013 by TheRollingStones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McFaul 35 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I hope we sign him just so he can kiss the badge when he scores against the mackems. Probably the best striker we are a capable of signing with this fat shambles owning the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil 6 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I've never rated him, but he does have an uncanny ability to put the ball in the net. We have to be realistic about our targets, so I'd be more than happy with Bent joining. If we do "get him over the line", I can see Cisse being sold as Bent is an out and out striker, so we'd have the Cisse/Ba issue again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1260 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I think Bent would be a decent signing but I do wonder how him and Cisse would combine. Hopefully signing him would be along with signing another striker so who would complement both of them. Cant say i'm that hopefull of that happening like!

JonTheMag 4 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I feel like him and Cisse up front would be another Cisse/Ba situation. Neither are comfortable playing the role of provider, and will often wind up in the same areas trying to finish the same chances. Look at the stats. Since 2001 Bent has only 19 assists in 362 League appearances. Cisse has 5 assists in his 50 appearances since he joined. All signs point to these two not playing together well, and I don't think Bent is keen on leaving the bench at Villa for the bench here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anorthernsoul 1221 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Stick the ball in the right areas, Cisse and Bent will score a hatful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anorthernsoul 1221 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 The only thing difficult about it is getting Cisse to play, he hasn't turned up to the Portugal tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
