khay 10 Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 Newcastle have placed Charlton striker Darren Bent on their summer wish list. Taking from the BBC gossip column. Could be unsettled now that curbishley left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetleftpeg 0 Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 I can't say I've been impressed when I've seen him play to be honest. He can score goals in a below average side though, which is a good quality to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

themags 0 Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 that was done in Paint, yes it took me 20 minutes i thought it was alright On a serious note, i'd love him to sign for us, but cant see Fergie selling him to another English club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 22187 Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 would the horse face work alongside owen though? both class predators but maybe a bit too similar and one dimensional to play up front together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 7182 Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 Bent is another in a long line of one season wonders. see beattie, crouch, phillips, ricketts, johnson etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut 190 Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 would the horse face work alongside owen though? both class predators but maybe a bit too similar and one dimensional to play up front together 139754[/snapback] Probably not but it doesn't really matter because they'd both still score a shitload. I don't really think Shearer & Ferdinand were a great combination as such, but they both had a good supply-line and could finish. I don't see why Owen & van Nistelrooy couldn't do the same.

smoggeordie 0 Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 for bent to score the number of goals he's scored this season in a shit team is incredible I think. Could still be a one season wonder but definately worth keeping an eye on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Shearer Is God 0 Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 I love this thread. It reminds me of a thread on the old toon-chat, where SBR was getting lambasted for thinking of bringing him to us for a million! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinofbeans 91 Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 good player in a very average team. nowhere near world class tbh.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottish Mag 3 Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 good player in a very average team. nowhere near world class tbh.... 140002[/snapback] Not many players are "world class". It is term attached to decent players far to often in todays game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinofbeans 91 Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 (edited) true enough. he would be more reliable than st michael though ( you'd get more than half a season out of him and near as dammit the same amount of goals per game( based on what he's done this season....). would rather have kuyt or vannistelhorse tho.

luckyluke 2 Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 true enough. he would be more reliable than st michael though ( you'd get more than half a season out of him and near as dammit the same amount of goals per game( based on what he's done this season....). would rather have kuyt or vannistelhorse tho. 140019[/snapback] But Owen's been doing it for years at the highest level. Bent could turn out to be a sucess, but it's more likely he'll go the route of Ricketts et al. I'd rather we bought someone proven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaser 1268 Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 Scoring record throughout his career is almost a goal every 2 games. Scored 47 goals in 103 league appearances with Ipswich. Only 22 yrs old Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
