Gareth Bale

Bale is absolute pie in the sky. I'm sure city and all the top clubs in Europe are following him, but Spurs proved last summer that they will no longer be forced into selling their best players.

Having missed out on the champions league and all the money it would of generated, if they now have to sell one to make up for it then it will be Modric IMO if he asks to go again. Bale however, is young and has time on his side. I dont see any scenario in which he leaves unless he publicly demands a transfer and spurs receive a £40m + bid. And i just dont see Bale doing that or Spurs agreeing to it. They lose Bale and or Modric they might as well give up on all of their champions league ambitions. They know it. Wont happen this summer.

Quality player though. Some say he's overrated because his form dipped 2nd half of last season. But you could count on 1 hand the games where Silva performed anywhere near his best from December. Bale is a marked man in the Tottenham team. Everyone knows if you stop Bale you stop Tottenham because he's their only truly world class player. If you put him in this City side then teams would put 3 men and over focus on him at their peril. Think he would be brilliant for us and just what we need going forward.

good points well maded, unfortunately I think your diagnosis is accurate

Would love Bale to sign though

Brilliant post... hit the nail.

It is a decent post although misses out one very important element........££££££'s.

IIRC Bale is on only £30k per week or something wank like that.

Spuds/Levy won't give him anywhere near what he knows he can command elsewhere, again I think it was reported they were going to offer him a new deal at £70k per week, lol.

He and his agent will know full well they can get over 100k at lots of other clubs, plus he's said he wants chumps which they can't offer him, plus we still have Ade as an extra bargaining chip, plus they would probably be keen on other players like AJ - need I go on?

;-)
 
Wish I had a wank wage of only £30-70k per week.

Seriously though, £20k should be a cap. How on earth can no one survive on that amount of money? Fair play to then negotiating it but to say £30k pw is "wank" is schoolboy stuff.

Come off it fella, you know exactly what I mean.

Bale knows he can get over 100k per week at all clubs who are interested in him, in which case IN COMPARISON 30k is "wank".....
