TOTTENHAM striker Darren Bent is aiming for a ten-goal return this season as the former Charlton hitman looks to keep himself at the forefront of boss Juande Ramos' plans for next season.

The forward scored his eighth goal of the campaign against Newcastle in the side's 4-1 defeat, but with Ramos understood to be keen to offload a chunk of his squad, Bent is desperate to continue his revival in form.

"I'd be happy with double figures, considering I have missed a lot of games through injury," stated the 24-year-old.

However, Bent was quick to point out that his side "have to bounce back" after coming under fire for their half-hearted display against the Magpies.
