I've always said Levy would want around £100 million for him, just makes sense that if someone wants your star player you squeeze what you can out of it.

He's not worth the money being quoted.

IMO Spurs are best keeping hold of him and investing in their squad ie Paulinho, Soldado (maybe one or two others).
Even if RM only offer £60M next summer, but Spurs get in the CL then Spurs will have basically paid £20M to have Bale for one season but in that season he will have got them in the CL which means more money for Spurs and better chance of attracting players.
The fact is they have a great player (not quite world class) and they are hard to come about so they would be silly to sell him without guaranteeing themselves CL football first.

Bale doesnt guarantee champions league football though. What if he loses motivation/form, or gets injured? He's one year closer to the end of his contract and a free transfer. He's twice as desperate to get out and Spurs have just cost themselves a fortune.

He' not worth the money; one good season; will end up like Modric; once he loses his pace; what if he gets injured? etc etc etc..............
Pinhead thinking or just jealousy? Love to see us offer 90m just to make life interesting for Madrid.
This lad has it all - that's why the market is setting the price where it is.

For sure no one football player in the world is worth that amount of money, but Spurs are so crazy to reject such a high offer.GaudinoMotors said:He' not worth the money; one good season; will end up like Modric; once he loses his pace; what if he gets injured? etc etc etc..............

They have a better chance with him in the team than without. Like I said there aren't many players about like him and if they add 1 or 2 others on top of Paulinho and Soldado then I'm pretty confident they would finish 4th at least

If I was them I'd sell. That way they could use the money to properly improve their team in a few areas. As it is they will always be one injury away from being a very ordinary team.

Yup, they are massively bereft of creative players. Bale being pretty much the only one. They could buy 2 or 3 creative players with the Bale cash which could see them as a little bit more of just a challenger for the top 4.
Sorry if already posted
Daniel Levy is angry and does not want to sell Gareth Bale to Real Madrid. The Tottenham chairman considers it humiliating that 'los Blancos' are making a move for Bale just a year after they signed Modric. He has told Madrid’s board members that his club is not Real’s youth academy and that they will have to pay €145m (£125m) if they want to sign Bale.
It is more than just a question of money. What the Tottenham chairman wants is to make a point. He wants to take his anger out on Real Madrid by demanding a transfer fee which 'los Blancos' see as unaffordable.
The first ever three-figure transfer fee: that is what Levy wants. Neither Bale’s pleas nor Madrid’s big-money offers can make him play ball. He is angry and will not listen to reason.
So Madrid and Tottenham are left trying to agree a fee which satisfies the demands of the Spurs chairman, without it going beyond what Real Madrid considers affordable. Meanwhile, an unhappy Bale does not want to have to pull on a Tottenham shirt again.
Bale landed in London on Monday, but he does not want to spend even one more day training or playing with Villas-Boas’ team. The Spurs squad returns to training tomorrow and there it will be seen if Bale will back down or not.
Ridiculous if true.
