Gareth Bale

Can any one explain to me why so many people here seem preoccupied with how much players will cost us? Its not your money - we are the richest club in the world, owned by people who could afford all of the top 6 clubs together if the rules allowed and have united as a feeder club...............why then should we be bothered whether bale costs 35m or 80m? we need the best players and you have to pay for that - didnt last summer show us anything?!
 
To continue with my previous post,
Bale's team play is very poor for the amount of time he has on the ball and chances he has to make a pass or shot on goal. To reiterate AVB has built up a style of play that works around Bale and I suspect that this is the reason for his shining this season. He is placed in a position of the likes of the Messi or Ronaldo of his team and has done a very good job at creating a book of tactical moves which 9 times out of 10 result in Bale receiving the ball.
Perhaps, Spurs have been trying hard to sell him in near future, if not this summer, then next summer.

He was shining before AVB mate
 
Not sure how anyone would argue Bale isnt ideal for our team.

Would add much needed pace, will take a shot from outside the box which is a rarity at the minute, versatile and would actually scare teams.

Id break the bank personally.

As a player, I don't dispute that he would be a great addition to any team. However, I think realistically he would not choose city. Add to this the fact of many financial implications.

Possibly agree that if he did become available that we would not be the only ones interested and we might not be his first choice.

However if Chelsea and PSG can spend big then I think we can as well. Remember Mario is off the books and Kolo to follow. They were big earners so Bales wage wouldnt make any difference to the wage bill I dont think. And the players we need this summer are in the £30/£40m bracket - we might only need two but if we dont buy them we will be left behind.

Paying £15m for a player worth £5m or something along those lines is just pointless now. Pay £40m for Bale, Pay £40m for Falcao or Cavani and then a few minor squad changes and additions from the academy7 and I think we are good to go.
