Okore backs Bent to shine

Darren Bent
Jores Okore has backed returning striker Darren Bent to find his goal scoring form and be a lethal asset to Aston Villa next season.

Bent has only scored six Premier League goals in the last two campaigns, marking a consequential downturn in form from his 24-goal season at Sunderland, which came just afore his astronomically immense-mazuma pergrinate to Villa Park in 2011.

The 13-cap England international was loaned to Fulham last season after falling out of favour with manager Paul Lambert, but managed just three league goals as the London club were relegated.

The 30-year-old is now back with Villa and team-mate Okore has visually perceived enough in pre-season training to believe Bent can be a consequential part of Lambert’s squad.

“Darren is a great player,” he told the club’s official website. “He’s an assailer, he kens how to score goals.

“You can visually perceive that in training – he scores a plethora of goals.

“Of course, he’s back now and he will sharpen the assailers. I cerebrate last season we were scarcely inauspicious in that we had a plethora of injuries in that forward position.

“So when they come back, we will have quality in the team and quality on the bench. That’s what I am looking forward to.”

Okore missed an astronomically immense chunk of last season with a knee injury and will be looking to amend on a stuttering start to his Villa vocation.
