Gareth Bale

[Danamy]

If City offer 35mill or above for bale, Levy will play ball.

The problem with starting at that figure Levy will expect 40m start at 25 and say you can av Ade for 5m

You should be a negotiator

25m max, and throw in Ade.

 

[LoveCity]

Levy seriously believes that they're entitled to Adebayor on a free transfer, that's what a stingy tw@t he is, while demanding top dollar for their players. Now I'd love Bale at the club but it'd probably be healthier for the club's wallet and sanity to look on the continent, there are wingers out there who might cost 1/3 as much and have the same impact like Santi Cazorla. We might need to boost our homegrown quota soon but not at the cost of £40million.

Comparing Santi Cazorla to Gareth Bale is a bit of a insult to Gareth; Cazorla is nowhere near Bale's level.

Technically Cazorla is better, however, Bale is obviously quicker and more powerful. Cazorla is closer to Bale's level than you think, and I'd argue that Cazorla has more of an influence on his team than Bale does, which is what LoveCity was trying to argue

Levy won't sell Bale and Modric this summer. If nothing else, he simply doesn't need to. The sale of Modric will generate more than enough money (and quality players if the rumours about Sahin are true) to give the new manager a shot of improving on last season.

I sort of agree with those who say he's grossly overpriced too.

Cazorla cost Malaga around £17million pounds and I doubt he can adapt to the premier league, Bale has been more productive than Cazorla and Bale plays in a league which has better defenders.

Then there is the question about whether Cazorla can adapt to the Premier League.

If Cazorla was anyting special then the likes of Madrid and Barcelona would be all over him.

Anyone think Spurs inability to name a new manager has to do with Levy not being able to give assurances that neither Bale or Modric will be sold ....

It's got more to do with the fact that AVB isn't allowed to be announced until July I assume.

Is AVB defo going to Spurs then? I thought he'd gone off in a huff when he found out he wasn't first on the list. He must feel HATED darn sarf.
