Bent's fitness struggle

Last updated : 05 March 2006 By Alistair Murray

After the 0-0 draw at Liverpool, Curbs said "He hardly played for Everton and since he’s been at us he keeps coming out (the side) for cup games and that doesn't help. He hardly trained all week due to a hamstring injury."

Bent played for the Toffeemen in the third round of the FA Cup at Millwall in January before his move in the transfer window.
