Off work and watching TV on Thursday, I saw David Bentley talking about Tottenham on Sky Sports News.

I vaguely remembered him.

Checked him out and sure enough, he is a former Tottenham player.

David Bentley is from Peterborough and grew up a Man U fan, was with Arsenal as a kid but didn’t make it. Ended up having a couple of good seasons with Blackburn, then at the age of 23 got a massive five year contract at Tottenham in a big money move and that was pretty much the end of his career!

In his five years on the books of Tottenham, he made 42 appearances and scored two goals. During that time, Bentley was so poor that he ended up getting sent out on loan to a number of clubs but failed to impress.

At the age of 28 he came to the end of his lucrative Tottenham contract in June 2013 and never played professionally again.

A year later David Bentley announced his ‘retirement’ from playing, claiming he had fallen out of love with football and wanted to spend time with his family.

Anyway, it looks like at the age of now 41, it looks...
