Bent

[Ordar]

Surely has to start every game. I dont care that he brings nothing to the build up play. He gets into the right place at the right time.

67 - Since August 2008 Darren Bent has scored 67 PL goals, only three players (RVP, Rooney & Lampard) have more in that period. Reliable.

[CanadianCottager]

Agree completely, as a plus side he actually stays in the box, giving our attacking midfielders something to aim at. No coincidence we enjoyed our best attacking spell once Berba came off

[Parkway Drive]

Paired up with Berba or not definitely think Bent needs to start...

[epsomraver]

Berbatov again did absolutely nothing

[Slaphead in Qatar]

Yes must start regardless of whether berby is fit or not.

I don't like to see players getting injured but what a godsend, I understand Jol wanting to be loyal to berba, afterall he could have gone and played in Italy and probably would have a bigger pay check, but there comes a time when he has to look him in the eye and tell him to have a rest, maybe rest is not the correct word as he can't be tired.

I think it's only a question of his match fitness. If he's ready now to go 90 minutes every week, then he MUST start for us.
