"It's going pretty well so far. On my first day I was quite nervous about meeting all the lads and was wondering whether they would all like me, and stuff like that. But all the lads are great. There's a great atmosphere in the changing room and I'm enjoying every minute.”
Bent was especially grateful to Addicks skipper Matt Holland, who was formerly the 21-year-old's captain at Portman Road.
"Matty's been great,” he said. "I hung around with him on the first day and he was showing me a lot and telling me what I can and can't do. He's been brilliant, but to be fair all the lads have been brilliant and they've all helped me settle in well."
Bless!
