So which miss was worse - Bent's or Zaki's?

Bent vs Pompey

Zaki vs City

I'd go for Zaki's effort since he pretty much had the whole goal to aim at and was still off target.

Bent is truly awful though. It amazes me how often certain managers are willing to offload silly money for players on the back of one decent season's form. Bent is bottom 5 Premier League/ Championship material at best.

Zaki's was worse, he hardly even needed to head it, goal was gaping and Hart stuck within in the net.

But Bent's miss......

What about Redknapp's criticism of Bent then, was it warranted or not? I think these things are better kept in house as it will def affect bent's confidence which must be low anyway. Plus surely Harry's comments will devalue Bents transfer fee for any possible suitors.
A lot of the press fawn over 'arry and his onest assessment of things but he annoys the ell out of me.
He seems to love blaming everyone else for his woes.

Zaki's - it was brutal. The whole goal to aim at.

Bent had James and the defender blocking one side of the goal, and tried to place it in the bottom corner - still an awful miss, but for me, Zaki's was worse.

Zaki's but bent sould have won it for thfc.
Harry saying that should make bent stronger and want to prove him wrong.

James is a disgrace for taunting Bent after he missed.

Zaki's

Harry is a disgrace for his subsequent public comments about one of players. man management? i do't think so.

i think harry is starting to feel reality biting a drubbing by the champions on saturday could turn the pressure up on spurs

Zaki's was a thousand times worse and Bent's was bad!

Tony Baloney · January 20, 2009, 01:29:57 PM

Zaki's by a mile but who the hell was supposed to tracking back to mark Bent?!

Aye, I found it amazing that he was bought by Spurs (but then again they wouldn't have the greatest minds in the background) for more than Barcelona got Henry.

Hope not, plenty enough of it being done as it is though.
