Gareth Bale

United will possibly pay the price for what they did on Sanchez, who is on £505,000-per-week.

They are looking at £50m on Fred, £50-£60m on Alderweireld, £90m plus on Savic and that's without two new full-backs, likely to include a £50m bid for someone such as Alex Sandro - that's best part of £250m right there and the higher wages they will all require - and that's dropping the move for Willian because of Bale.

If you then factor in Bale's £100m cost in conjunction with paying £500k a week - £200k a week more than Pogba - you can start to see how the Sanchez deal was short-sighted.

They did shift Ibrahimovic's wages but he was on a lower deal in his final year and Lukaku came in on £300k a week and also Matic balanced that saving.

United are losing Carrick and Fellaini's wages and will attempt to sell Blind, Martial, Shaw and Darmian- circa £100m for that lot.

Even if they attempt to trade Pogba for Bale, it means United would literally start next season with an entirely new team and a spend of over £300m before wages -

For context - they are still paying Rooney another £100k a week for a further 12 months, so even their deep pockets will have a bottom.
Round of applause for that breakdown
 
No way bale goes anywhere for me

Good clubs already identified their targets early ie us and Liverpool

The deal would take all summer for united or Chelsea and other targets may have to be put on hold
Depends on Neymar and hazard to Madrid
But bale staying may be better for Madrid
Psg won’t want to sell

So complicated
There may be a merry go round with these players later but is it worth the hassle
Madrid have done little in last few years to squad and look how well it has payed off
 
Piece by Martin Blackburn saying we're not interested in Neymar despite his recent comments on working with Pep. Says we've very meticulously planned for the window and aren't looking to change it, even for Neymar.

So, I imagine it's a safe extrapolation to say we're not going for Bale either.

Let's move on from this one folks.
