at the risk of raising some eye brows i dont see why bent has got so many enemys.his goal tally was'nt up to much but then his in good company there.but i thought he held the ball up well.maybe a bit of a big head tho
he never did anything that well, dreadful first touch, poor shot, not much physical presence and rarely won a ball in the air - that enough for ya? Made Matt Svenson look OK..
At £30k a week he was bad. If he was on the same as Dickson or Fleetwood then you'd probably say he was ok. We'd be a better team at present with him in the side but it's all about the money.

Bent was a leg-end
Give it up now, you were rumbled long ago
He would've been our top scorer if we played him all year.
Was Marcus Bent really that bad? No, he was worse than that.
Is he better than Deon Burton? Immeasurably.
That's where we are now, though.
He's just not very good at scoring goals.
Was Ron Noades good for Crystal Palace? Was Perry Suckling unlucky at Anfield in 1989?
In answer to the question tho- Yes
