At least Robbie Keane refused to celebrate either of his goals.
But that was about the only concession he gave to the club that launched his career.
It was only the second time the 31-year-old Republic of Ireland international had been back to Molineux for a Premier League game in the 14 years since he left.
Both times he has inflicted damage. He scored one of the two goals for Tottenham on the last day of the season that waved Wolves back into the Championship in 2004.Alex McLeish, the latest in a long line of managers to have signed Robbie Keane, was ready to celebrate his 53rd birthday in style after the peripatetic Irishman scored twice to turn a 2-1 deficit into an Aston Villa victory at Wolverhampton Wanderers, who sink into the bottom three after eight Premier League matches without a win.he away side started the brightest and could have been ahead inside the first minute
when the unmarked Craig Gardner headed wide.
Wolves struggled to settle and were behind after 11 minutes when Bent stepped up to score from the spot after Christophe Berra was caught in possession by the striker and responded by needlessly bringing him down.
