Gareth Bale

A very good player but not worth paying another world record transfer fee imo.

He wasn't worth anywhere near what Madrid paid for him in the first place.

Exactly the above...... world record fee for a player not anywhere near the justification for. Don't get me wrong he is a decent player but not the fee that was paid

Thank the genius that is Ancelotti; Bale at centre forward, Ramos in midfield, both players looking awful as a result.

I'd love Bale here but I won't get too excited about the prospect, as the cunts from Trafford are allegedly having a mass clear out including the likes of Mata, Di Maria and Van Persie to finance a rebuild.

United will get next to nothing for Van Persie and they will take a bath on Mata - they will be lucky to get £25m and Di Maria will probably depart for less than they paid. Add in Falcao and United spunked some money last summer.

Falcao and Van Persie's wages are huge and what they'll save on them will be factored into their budget. Di Maria will probably go for about half of what they paid, while a friend of mine who works at Old Trafford, and who's info is generally more hit than miss because he's good mates with someone involved with the first team (not a player) has told me that a deal has been agreed in principle to take Mata back to Valencia as their marquee signing this summer for around £35m, while Herrera will also be going there if they get two of Strootman, Schweinsteiger and Gundogan.


You'd at least hope we'll make it difficult for them to get Bale, causing mischief by putting a few extortionate bids in to ensure they pay an absolute premium rate for him.

Credible source you say? How is Strootman an improvement over anyone in their current team?

Nor are Gundogan or Schweinsteiger tbf.

As for Bale, he needs to go to a team that let him play from the left again and that does not include Ronaldo. Real is all wrong for him, but I get the impression he is not ready to leave yet to solvage something of the pricetagg he carries. But if he and his agent sit down and talk sence, he can be a big player at lots of other teams. City could be a team that suits him if we wanna play a bit more direct.
 
I think a move for Bale can be financed. If nobody else is prepared to pay for him then we could cut a clever deal. I'd love him at City.
 
He was played in the wrong position for most of last night. Ancelotti seemingly under pressure to play certain players despite the formation. Modric injured so rather than play a midfielder play Ramos... no Benzema so play Bale up top... Real looked more fluid when Bale was pushed wider and Hernandez came on. It's difficult when you have Rodrigues, Ronaldo, Isco and Bale all wanting to play across a 3 but they were all over the place.

Bale needs a new lease of life and he'd show his worth if he came back to England and was played in the right position. That Real team is all about Ronaldo and I think he's struggling to play a cameo. I'd have him at City 100% if the price was right. I do think we'd be better concentrating funds on Pogba and buying options like De Bruyne and Sterling who have the capability of being better than Bale. If we bought Bale his price is only going one way... Sterling, De Bruyne, Pogba - they're all likely to get better and their fee rise higher.

Totally agree with what you say, particularly about the price being right. Wasn't overly inspired last night but that could be as you say, being played out of position. Bit of a risk for me, but willing to be proved wrong.
 
one of the the best winger in the world. homegrown too. everyone have their day off.

break the bank and get bale, sterling and pogba. we will terrorize the league and in europe.

Would love it :-)

But can we afford the three ?

Someone's going to be made scapegoat in Madrid... odds are it'll be Bale. Time's ripe for us to rescue him.

I bet he doesn't drive out of the ground in his own car tonight, once bitten......
 
If we could get him, I'd drop the Sterling pursuit in an instant. It's times like this when you strike for players like Bale, when their confidence is broken and people call him shit and hence when their price tag drops. Bring him back to the Premier League and he'll tear it up. Would United still want him after signing Depay? My guess is yes, just to stop us. He's that sort of player.
