	Marcus Bent - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Marcus Bent (born 19 May 1978 in Hammersmith, London) is a journeyman English footballer, who in a short career has managed to play for several different professional sides.
		Bent played a season for the Suffolk side, but did not establish himself and went on loan to Premiership side Leicester City for the 2003-04 season during which they were relegated to the Football League First Division.
		Bent proved to be an exceptional asset to the club, and although he only managed 7 goals, proved to be an excellent team player who proved key in securing draws at Southampton and at home to Aston Villa, as well as winning goals against Middlesbrough and Manchester City.

	ToffeeWeb - Everton Players: Marcus Bent
		Bent, who spent the 2003-04 season on loan at Leicester, scored 10 goals for the Foxes, including a last-minute winner against Everton at the Walkers Stadium in March.
		Bent is the sort of player who perhaps should have joined the club at the start of Moyes's reign, rather than two and a bit seasons in, and half a season into his Goodison career, he is already looking to be a good buy.
		Whether Moyes will deploy Bent and Beattie together or merely replace one for the other remains to be seen over the second half of the season, but with five league goals and priceless contributions elsewhere on the pitch, Marcus has already proven good value for money.

		Bent, paired up front with Armstrong, was presented with the first chance of the contest in the seventh minute, but his header from Venus' cross had the pace taken off it by an Alain Goma block and Edwin van der Sar smothered.
		Bent's pace sent him clear of the Fulham rearguard moments later and the visitors were thankful for Steve Finnan's awareness as the full-back blocked Clapham at the far post from the striker's cross after van der Sar and Goma got in a tangle.

		But it only proved to be a brief respite as Bent missed another glorious chance to score his second Premiership goal since signing from Ipswich Town for £450 000 in the summer.

	Observer \| Tractor boy hell Bent on success
		Since first savouring that addictive taste of plundering goals in the Premiership when he was a raw teenager at Crystal Palace, the seven seasons, five clubs, numerous managers and odd nightmare that marked his circuitous route back have made him a remarkably shrewd 23-year-old.
		On arriving at Ipswich Town three months ago, he was struck by a sudden moment of clarity when he clapped eyes on his namesake, Darren Bent, and felt as if he was confronted with a mirror image of his boyhood self.
		The most recent of his string of goals prompted manager George Burley to say that the 6ft 2in former sprinter had all the attributes to be a top striker.
