That sucks. I was out of work at 4pm today and went for a most enjoyable swim with my two daughters - happy days.

No no no no no no no - thats not the reason we're sniffing round Bent. See Daniels ' Berbatov will leave us' thread

Who else would you spend the Berbatov money on then?

Eto'o?

Eto'o and a Murphy do not equal a Berbatov but they may have to. I am such a pessimist. Sad

You want to be careful, too much worrying can make you go bald early. Cool

Swap deal for Rooney and Ronaldo.

it would be absolutely fantastic if we can keep berby,keano,defoe AND sign Bent...! Think of the options available to Jol, and the possibility of fielding 2 separate partnerships for different games i.e Berby/Keano and Bent/Defoe...and for the big games, berby and Bent upfront...surely thats what dreams are made of!?

i bet defoe will be off though, hope not though

Tottenham hope Darren Bent will agree to join them from Charlton in the next 48 hours.

But they will have to raise their initial offer of £12.5million plus two players, thought to include former Charlton midfielder Danny Murphy.

Charlton boss Alan Pardew is said to be "uncertain" about Murphy’s qualities in the Championship so Spurs need to find more cash.

It is believed Bent would join for less than the £75,000-a-week offered by West Ham, who yesterday complained after their attempt at signing the striker collapsed.

"There is a certain amount of frustration and even a bad taste," said a club spokesman.

"Something seems to have happened to make the player have a change of heart. One avenue is closed, but there are other options."

The club could return to Everton’s Andrew Johnson but the Merseysiders have so far rejected their overtures.

DO we really want Bent ??? is it that good ? scratch

I am sure he is reasonable but if a reasonable player playing for a relatively woeful club, like charlton, I am he will shine... I must admit reports of suggesting spurs will pay $12.5m plus players is too much for someone like bent... I am sure there will be those that disagree with this view
