Its funny the press were so in love with the story that Villa lost to reading and Bent didnt play that when it didnt come true they decided to write it anyway.
clearings in the woods.
Based on Lamberts comments I doubt any extra payments is a consideration. Lambert just doesnt think Bent has been training well and he was not impressed with how he handled the Captaincy debacle now he has got it in his mind that Bent is not his kind of player.
it is also pretty clear that when lambert decides you are out then you are OUT.
I dont know the whole story but I place the blame for this stuff on both their shoulders. Bent should have kept his trap shut and Lambert should have handled this WAY better. Tossing someone off the bench is a very big slap which i dont think Bent deserves based on what i have seen of his performances.
I think we should give some respect to reading for breaking up our play. They were at us from the get go. I was releived when they took off their forward who had been giving us so much trouble.
Any Aston Villa win is beautiful and so was this one. Nervey as hell.
Westwood looks aces. Ireland doing well.
I would be tempted to give Nzogbia another run replacing Gabby.
Great teams win ugly when they need to. Or so ManU fans have told me for years. Maybe thats us then.
Either way I am delighted. We are 3 points away from the mid table pack now. Thats enough good for me coming out of a November to fear,
Interesting. I guess we will find out.
I am perplexed though, maybe in training he just sits around and smokes joints while throwing paper darts at lamberts head or something but on the pitch if anything I have seen him far more commited this season when he plays.
Seems weird.
Lamberts job is secure right now. People can stop worrying (or hoping) he will get sacked this month or next. It aint gonna happen. If we are bottom of the league come january however....
