As we now know, Bent was a flop and we were lucky to get most of our money back, Bentley was a complete loss of £15m, and Pav did okay without being a runaway success and we ended up making a small loss on him. Only Modric was a successful signing.
I think Bent gets a bit of a hard time. He only started 32 league games for us, and scored 18 league goals during his time with us. I think he was far from a flop.....more Redknapp didn't fancy him and Bent didn't fit the way he wanted the team to develop and play.
