Regardless of the merits of Lambert as a manager Agbonlahor, Bent and the Villa squad of that era were a bunch of bad apples and terrible professionals...downed tools for several managers.
Paul Lambert.....European cup winner...Darren Bent....didn't even play in the League cup final that Spurs won.....huge difference in quality of player and mindset.
"The manager made me captain, a leader of the team and then was upset when I left after a bad loss and didn't show the leadership skills and commitment he was probably hoping for (as I was the record signing and biggest name at the club). When I was called out on this, rather than be humble and show unity.. I challenged the managers authority in front of the entire squad. The relationship went sideways after that... I don't know why." Lol clown.
Pretty much. Lambert called me, made me captain; asked for my opinions and was clearly pushing me to have a great impact and role within the squad....he soon realised I was a self absorbed lazy waste of space that gave nothing back and marginalised me. Shocking.
Bent was a wonderful forward for 2 seasons at villa but he certainly changed when he came back from that injury l. we literally survived for 3 years on a spine being Guzan Vlaar Delph and Benteke. When the latter 3 left we dropped.
Why shouldn't players get called out by their managers...if they ain't performing... funny how it's always the lazy players that always come out and complain... just like gabby
Didn't money play a part too? Bent had played 40+ games for Villa. The rumour was that we'd have had to make an additional payment to Sunderland if he made 50 appearances, so Lambert was told/pressured not to play Bent.
He was, people seem to judge him on an indifferent spell at Spurs and what Redknapp said, but his goal record speaks for itself - was a cracking striker in the championship at Ipswich as well.
He was a championship level player and that's all he will ever be He gets rated correctly, any time he was asked to actually work harder to become better he threw a tantrum like a child and left
@@daniyaalhussain7593 oh please 60 of his goals all came in a 4 year period, the majority of the goals he scored in his career were done in leagues lower than the Prem He's a championship level player end of story Every time he was pushed to actually work so that he could improve he'd piss n moan saying he was being used and pressured or that the manager didn't like him, there's a reason the last 8 years of his career nobody even knew his name
@@victorkreig6089 so your telling me players like che adams and danny ings who play in the prem now are better then bent? Or michail antonio. Say what you want about attitude but the man was a good goal scorer
Lambert did a lot more than Bent did in his career. Champions league winner and played in a Uefa cup final for Celtic. Had Zidane in his pocket for Dortmund..........
Lambert was a bluffer as a manager, he obviously caught zidane on a bad night, zidane one of the greatest players ever Paul Lambert was an average player. Played for what great clubs , man utd real Madrid, Barcelona? Oh Celtic lol
I don't like it when footballers talk about what goes on in the dressing room nor training pitch. What goes on in those environments should be none of our business.
Daren was a great forward and looked like being excellent for Villa but we sold our two best wide men and never replaced them- the next season he got no service
Bent had a terrible work rate and lambert needed a big physical striker to fit his system. When Bent would come on he'd sulk and jog about the pitch. He could of been a top player if his ego wasn't enormous
@@bobcricket4873 lambert is a nut job he was at my club for a while 😂 I don’t know how you can say that about Darren bent in his pomp he scored bags of goals
I heard that when we signed benty (and I loved benty down the villa so this isnt on him) sunderland put a crazy clause in his contract, so plays x amount of games, scores x amount of goals randy lerner had to shell out another £4-5m, lambert supposedly knew this and so they treated him poorly
Villa were a genuinely good team under Martin O'Neill. They were dull as dishwater to watch under Mcleish and Lambert though. About as much attacking guile as a sedated hippo. How many home matches did they go without scoring under Lambert?
Paul was brought in to keep Villa up that was it. Villa know finwell that Paul was a manager with a defence first mind set so you should look at the clowns running Villa at that time first before you start blaming Paul. For Villa's sort comming when Paul was manager. Villa where basically a fire sale of a club at that point they where in a terrible financial mess at that time. thankfully Villa are in a better situation now massive club & important club in English football. I am not a Villa fan but I do have an extremely long memory & sharp as a razor something I am surprised I still have considering what I have been through health wise.
Bent, when speaking about the Paul Lambert incident, is giving excuses. Defending himself using the letter of the law instead being an adult and behaving according to the intent of the law. Shudve sent himself to the under 15's with that logic. shame!
Wtf are you talking about intent of the law. So do you get punished for intending to speed or do you get punished for actually going over the speed limit. I would hate to be represented by you in the likes of court. Would get eaten up .
Sounds like he didn't need a lot to make him turn on you if Lambert obsessed over things like what kind of car his players were driving. Sounds like jealousy to me pure and simple.
And what did you get up to outside of games? It wasn't nothing and certain players weren't loving what you did. Not exactly great for team morale when you do that. That might have contributed to 'problems'.
Bluffer ??? Buddy he won more than bent ever did… club legend at Celtic… certified Hunskelper. And champions league medal.. do your research before you slate him..

The decline of Darren Bent was interesting in itself. He was a good player.
I remember seeing him at Charlton and wanted him at Liverpool
Just got old mate
Ruptured his ankle ligament and was never the same again
Tbf he was decent just didnt stay fit enough
Only at Charlton, otherwise garbage
The coach Darren can't remember at Vlla was Ian Culverhouse
He could remember but pretended not to because of the old farm rivalry

It’s crazy people find out years later someone supports another club and lose their minds.

Daren was a great forward and looked like being excellent for Villa but we sold our two best wide men and never replaced them- the next season he got no service
If he was so good
why did he not play more for England.
Darren ! You have to find forgiveness in your heart and realise we are all human and we make mistakes. Get Paul on and bury the past .

Imagine tagging Laura Woods when she has nothing to do with this whatsoever. Weird.
