Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp has slated David Bentley's minders.
He told the Daily Mail: "He's a nice lad. Bright. He loves the game and he knows the game. But if I was advising him away from football the last thing I'd do is encourage him to buy a nightclub in Spain. The agent who has advised him to do that, for me, hasn't got a clue. It doesn't do his image any good. It's disastrous. I just find it amazing.
"I picked up the paper the other day and Micah Richards had given an interview. He's an England player and a good lad I'm sure. But I'm reading how, before he realised he had swine flu, he feared it could have been alcoholic poisoning. Now what a thing to say."
