I"ve said it before and I'll say it again, Bale is just typical, talented British speed merchant and nothing more than a £30m-£35m player tops.Ducado said:ifiwasarichfan said:One poster yesterday asked the question how has Bale gone from a £50M player to an £80M player whilst being on his Summer Holidays.
Did the Forum reach a conclusive answer on this because I would love to know it.
It's bugging me as well, no doubt he is a good player but he is not one of the best in the world by a long shot

Madrid are fucking nut's to pay more than that. And finally, why is no-one accusing the great Real of ruining football? Now if it was Manchester City.........
Yes but they lose a great shirt sellerpaphos-mcfc said:Madrid are only paying 25m for him. If they sell Ronaldo to the scum for 80m, then they're effectively paying 25m.

Maybe his ears are made of gold.
really and Clint off to Seattle too?st. blue said:SSN reporting deal agreed with Real
They are gonna be some team this season. If Arsenal strengthen too it'll be interesting to see who misses out on a top 4 spot.cmdub said:Latest reports suggest that this could be done in the coming days and spurs are already lining up targets to go after with the bale cash. Seen pastore, lamela, pjanic, eriksen and remy mentioned

FFP wasn't introduced to restrict the spending of Real Madrid or the rags it was to prevent City and some clubs from the former Soviet states from gatecrashing the party. Doesn't appear to apply to PSG unless things are being hidden behind bungs possibly linked to the Qatar world cup.St Helens Blue (Exiled) said:Well Wenger has had his say alright. Saying it makes a mockery of FFP. Wenger is such a fucking hypocrite..Wanker

Beckham played for PSG for nowt (or very little) but is rumoured to have been promised big bucks as an ambassador for WC2022.
But yes, Wenger is a fucking hypocrite, and possibly a wanker.
I'm sure Conn will have a pop at Qatar and link it to PSG, Beckham and Platini at a convenient time.I'm no cynic said:A couple of points to add. You're right about FFP being devised to impede City, but isn't it just a bit ironic [and enjoyable] that on this occasion, the Bale deal will make rivals Spurs that much stronger which will, probably, keep the Arse out of future money raising Champions League campaigns? And as for Qatar, they of the same ilk as Abu Dhabi, perhaps David Conn will drawn into an exposé of that Middle Eastern state too.

The foursome came to about £85m in total, isn't that what Madrid are rumoured to have bid?
Wages.
You'd be a terrible chairman then, as Levy looks like getting double that ;)wayne71 said:He's a good player no doubt but these figures are complete bollocks, no way is he in the same league as players like tranny and messi. I'd snap madrids hands off at anything offered above 50m.
