    if true, awesome. but kinda doubt it as wages would be high.

    maybe we can resurrect his career but my mate who supports Villa was extremely unimpressed with him while he was there ... reckoned he was lazy and uninterested ... having said that, I'd love to see him back in a Charlton shirt and give it a try

    That's my concern as well. Isn't he on £70k a week? Watch us get gazumped by Ipswich now. It'll be like Delort all over again.

    I think it'd end in tears. Plus, isn't he a replacement for Igor rather than a target man to compliment him?

    I think he could perform either duty to be honest.

    We couldn't even pay a fraction of his wages though. Villa would have to pay something like 80-90%.

    Again I worry people will be expecting the Bent we used to have but he is older has played so few games and I think might struggle if he comes here

    Nooooooooooooo and nooooooooooooo again. The demise of one legend was near unbearable but to do it again?

    he seems a shadow of his former self these days

    would really like an honest reference from Paul Lambert first

    I expect the story was originally taken from here and/or Twitter. Like Parker I'd be concerned that he's not the same player. Wouldn't want to use him as a target man either.

    If it is possible and Bob Peeters wants him, I'd love to see him back with us, evoking memories of our 'glory' days!

    let's say we could pay 25% of his weekly wage of 70k that is still a decent saving for Villa seeing as he's barely getting off the bench for them and obviously at a low point in his career.

    thanks Colin ;-))

    However, what rumours do you have? Who were the two we were close to yesterday?

    That would still put him on 17.5k/week. Any idea what sort of wages the rest of our squad are on?

    The names I heard being banded around were Harry Kane and Jay Emmanuel Thomas.

    Only if you try blowing smoke up their arses 24/7.

    Let bubba Bent back and see if he can still do a job in the Championship...

    Harry Kane! No way! The guy is playing for Spurs regularly.

    Maybe Spurs were trying to get a forward in so they could loan him out.

    I suspect we're going to have this "rumor" come around every transfer window for the next couple of years regarding Bent. As expected nothing in it at all other than a "wouldn't that be nice" bit of sentimentality from fans on social media.

    Darren Bent is the new Darren Purse.

    Until Bentekele is back from long term injury, Villa need Bent in their squad
