Replace him with bony?
Front line of benteke agbonlahor weimann bony nzogbia holman

Take Ireland with him plz
Agree8
Disagree1
Not sure about bent going to Stoke, but I think Ireland will go there and link up wiyh his old buddy Hughes
Agree6
Disagree2
Bent is only willing to take the drop in wages if he's going to a london club and stoke have a wage cap 45k a week
Agree6
Disagree2
Holman has been saying to Aussie paper he might leave. I think we should sell him tbh. 2-3 million profit
Agree7
Disagree0
Don't think bent can be that fussy about his wages/next club to be honest.
Agree2
Disagree1
Stoke want to play attacking football & that's not Peter Crouch. Stoke also say they want to improve their league positions which means spending more cash - they will want Bent.
Agree3
Disagree1
So. a front line of 6 and presumably 3 across the back and 1 in midfield.
I suppose its different!!

We should use that money to buy a new defender/midfielder our forwards are solid. If we get these Bulgarian wingers we can use them on the wing if Benteke gets injured the push gabby or weimann in their favourite striker role

Cresswell and Murphy will sign for villa in mid July once Villa have tied down the likes of Benteke, Weinman, Lowton and Westwood.

Unbelievable2
Better not leave it late : (
Agree8

Hopefully benteke, weimann an lowton will sign new contracts before mid July.
Agree5
Disagree2
Benteke is joining spurs or the gunners and wiemann will join Norwich as he doesn't want another relagation battle
Agree2
Disagree3
Weimann will join norwich cus he doesn't want to be in another relegation battle? Lmfao! Norwich are an always gunna be in a relegation battle, they have no future in the prem, there here to make up the numbers, that's it!
Norwich fans love coming on the villa forum, I reckon their closeted villa fans
Agree5
Disagree1
Norwich will be in a far worse position than Villa. Villa were as close to mid-table as they were the relegation battle come the end of the season.
Agree2
Disagree0
"Sunderland and Newcastle United target Andreas Weimann’s future is up to Aston Villa, according to his agent. "
So, how is Weimann going to join a mediocre side like Norwich City then?
Agree1
Disagree0
You've been reading the rags again haven't you mate
Why the hell would Weimann go to Norwich?
They were in practically the same position as us at the end of last season. If you insist on making stuff up, at least make it plausible. or consider a career in journalism

Is that the Norwich that was in the relegation battle with us? How much dead horse is there to beat on this benteke story, whenever it dies some unknown sports website reposts the same post and starts it up again.

Villa ARE interested in Aleksandar Tonev but he isn't having a medical!
Believable11
Unbelievable2
What exactly does this mean? As far as i'm aware you only have a medical if the two sides agree a fee and give permission.
Unless things have changed dramatically in a matter of days.
Agree6
Disagree1
Bit hard when he was playing for his club last night.
Agree7
Disagree1
According to the paper this was published in. there was a rumour that he was due in for a medical today. but it turns out that Villa are only interested in signing him and no nothing as yet has been agreed between the clubs
Agree4
Disagree1
Villa are in talks with his club over a fee for Tonev but nothing more. His projected move to Celtic is now on hold as he would prefer to play in the EPL than the SPL.
Agree4
Disagree2
Troy Deeney would be the best signing, good young promising striker who is prolific in front of goal.
Agree0
Disagree4
A fee of £2.5m has now been agreed - he is now scheduled a medical & personal talks!
Agree4
Disagree0
£2. 5 Million fee agreed, will have contract talks over the weekend.
Deal should be completed by Tuesday.

Darren Bent's replacement will be one of the following
Charlie Austin
Dwight Gayle
Matej Vydria

all valued around 2-4m mark

None of the forwards listed here are anywhere near villas standards. have u actually watched any of them? all awful.
Agree6
Disagree6
Everyone par Gayle coul make it in the prem- they have all par Gayle scored 20+ this season
Agree1
Disagree7
If bent goes as a replacement I think I'd like to see lukaku on loan maybe or someone like Defoe he may be available if spurs sigh villa or Damiao. I'd even get Keane back. These are suggestions. I'll wait for the divs now who go he wants youth bla bla bla. Like I pointed out at the top of the post it's who I WOULD LIKE TO SEE :)
Agree8
Disagree1
Lukaku could be easily drawn to Villa Park due to Villa having Benteke, imagine Bentekkers & Lukaku! #unbeatable.
Agree5
Disagree6
You lot are dilluded! None of them strikers up to your standard!? The only striker u have that is worth anything is Benteke, Bent never gets a look in (only Lambert knows why), Agbonlahor/Weimann will never be 20 goal a season strikers and are preferred in the wide areas, Bowery. say no more! Its time you were a bit more realistic with your expectations! Austin and Vydra would do a decent job for Villa, Gayle not quite ready yet and Deeney is a bit hit and miss!
Agree4
Disagree9
Matej vydra is class. He'd be a great signing, but none will be able to do what Benteke did, those guys would be better replacements if we can't resign Weimann, but not replacing Benteke
Agree4
Disagree7
Gabby is a 15 goals a season striker & Weimann will easily be a 20 goal a season striker. and you calling us deluded!
Agree4
Disagree1
Gabby and Weimann would get 20 between them! WAKE UP!!
Agree1
Disagree0
I'm sorry but playing out of position gabby and andi both scored 12 each. That's 24 goals from out of position. Imaging them linking up top if benteke leaves. Which he WON'T.

Taraabt is lazy, the exact type of player Lambert's trying to get rid of.

I'd take huddlestone, Taarabt no thanks we already got enough players who piss about with the ball ending up in nothing.

Is the flamini transfer just a rumour or are we actually looking to bring him in on a free transfer? Good signing if true
Believable3
Unbelievable6
We were also rumoured to have wanted him last summer
Agree4
Disagree1
He signed a new 1 year contract extension so not happening
Agree6
Disagree0
Yet last summer he wasn't a free agent.
Agree2

Just because he wasn't a free agent last summer does not mean we were not interested in him
