    According to the Beeb football gossip section us and the fake hoops are after Darren Bent, but no way is he worth £24 million!

    £24 million, do me a favour, he cant get a game in a ****e Villa team
    he would be worth taking on loan or buy at about £5 mill

    I saw that they won't let him go a relegation rival, I'd only take him on loan with a clause for a perm if we stay up, even then it should be no more than 5-6m.

    A shadow of the player he used to be, we can do better cheaper...

    I heard he's not playing because of his contract - Villa will have to pay substantial add-ons if he plays more than a certain number of PL games. He played and scored in the cup a week ago.

    Even if he was cut price, he isn't fit. No guarantee he would be available for every match.
    Not what we need. If he was fit - and his head was right - different story; but then he wouldn't be available!!

    We are clearly desperate for another striker and a fit Bent would be worth a look imo. He has an excellent record in the Prem and could provide goals to keep any team in this league. The fact that he is unable to get into a poor Villa side and provide those goals is surprising and I can only assume, like others have said, that he is just not able to maintain his fitness this season...with that in mind....NEXT

    In discussing Villa not playing him I've heard a lot about him disappearing in games, his work ethic, or lack of it, means he's unlikely to be on Harry's list...

    Yeah agree...quite a few strikers have that mentality and work ethic though

    He missed two sitters against Bradford, then went off injured after coming on as a sub.

    Bent always does well when he changes club. So I would say loan till end of season. IT makes sense for Villa to loan him out to us as it coulhelkp them stpIF he scores goals for us against other strugglers.

    We'd do better spending £5m on hiring Swansea's scouts !
