A Lambert classic

Recommended Posts

The BBC reporter asked him if Bent and Benteke can play together.

 

Lambert''s response:

 "Bent and Benteke can play together - they did against Southampton. We got beat 4-1".

 

Ouch!

... and there''s a rumour that Bent has not been selected recently because he is close to an appearance or goal milestone whereby Villa have to pay another 5 million quid on his purchase contract.

I think that is just a rumour, and nothing in it - I think it is probably from someone who plays too much Football Manager. 

 

He is on 20 goals for Aston Villa, and what would that milestone be? 21?

Well, the rumour came from a Villa fan who phoned into Talksport last night. 47 apps is not so far from 50 and if they got to 49 eyebrows would be raised and perhaps lawyers would be lining up.

(Should it be true); Regardless of the amount, 50 appearances is a very low threshold. Love PL''s response to those two playing together though!
