See, that Southampton game that you mention sums Darren Bent up for me......Scored a goal, and then proceeded to do nothing else for the rest of the game which ultimately contributed to our defeat.
We lost the game 4-1, but Darren scored our goal so he's justifying his place in the team right? That's what all his fans would say.
I did not realise what a lazy player he was when he first joined the club, but after seeing game after game pass him by, I just can't stand seeing the guy in claret and blue anymore if I'm honest.
Of course I don't blame him for earning the wage that he does, and I don't blame him for 'sitting on it'. It's just frustrating how poorly managed that our finances were back when it was handed out.
Again, it just makes you think where we could be right now if things had been managed better financially from 2006, considering the money that has been put in during the last 8 years, but that's for another thread.
I think Darren will be off to the MLS next year when his contract runs out, as I think that's the only place that he will earn anywhere near what he earns now as I can't see an English club offering him much.
