Is it me or does this read as the Bale angry story is not true? Seeing as he was adamant about the Ade part.


No. I think it means the Ade bit is true. I think Breezer and JJ are both pretty close to what is going on, especially given Breezer's knowledge of what happened at the Enfield game.

Breezer thinks Bale is sulky.
JJ thinks he will go.

I hope both of them are wrong, or at the least JJ (as JJ does too!)

Snippets from JJ on twitter.

- Adebayor was offered to RM and they rejected him.
- Bale is not angry
- He still thinks Bale will go.


Where did you get the "Bale is not angry" from? I couldn't make that out from his tweets (genuinely interested - not doubting you!)

What happened with all the Besiktas comments with Ade then? Surely if we wanted him out so much we would take the deal they were offering.

They still have not been confirmed to be in Europa or not have they? Saw they were in the draw today provisionally.

Honestly, enough pussy footing round this, I just wish Hudd would fuck off now and take some control over his career and look to establish himself elsewhere.

It's clear as can be he doesn't feature in our long term plans so please, do us a favour and accept a move!

He won't move out of London mate, loves the nightlife too much, and how would he ever be able to go out to the funky buddha on a regular basis if he moved away lol

If he's thrown his toys out if the pram he really disappoints me. Talent or not you don't go round being a petulant kid. You bide your time and do things properly. Don't think he'd end up being like Modric and Berba. In someways I thought he would have learnt not to do that considering he saw it first hand.
Guess even the so called nice ones can be divas. ( on on the basis the ITK is correct)

I didn't think Modric would end up like................err............Modric. RM dirty tricks brigade did a job on him though.

Maybe Bale is sulking because he's injured..... and he just wants to get out there and play.....

I think the club is in a win win situation if the ITK reports on figures are true.
Keep him, he'll hit 20-25 goals again, propelling us onwards.
Sell him, so long as the money is reinvested wisely, and despite losing our star, we could strengthen as a whole.
I personally think the fee's being mentioned are over the top, but hey, if Levy can get top dollar, fair play.
Key points, has to be done soon, not last week/day of the window, and replacements have to be of a good enough calibre to compensate.
My opinion, it's going to happen, may already be underway, and replacements are being secured to soften the blow before it is announced. (And make sure we don't get bent over on price if clubs know we have that much money)
The Bale money could get us a quality LB, CB and CF/WF, and still have money left. £85m = £15m LB, £15m CB and £20m striker with £35m left over. Maybe get Lamela with some of that?
Any other outgoings would be bonus cash to cover signing on fee's, wages, earlier transfers, couple of youngsters etc.

Well if Liverpool keep Suarez and we sell Bale. Will say it all IMO - and they finished all those points behind us last season.

Hmm...ok Bale is more expensive but the principal is the same for me. Everybody has a price but I really hope we don't lower our demands.

We shouldn't be conceding an inch on this. If Madrid can't ridiculously over pay for him they should be told to piss off.

Or maybe, he's trying to build a really hard Lego set, and that's hard for most of us, so must be incredibly frustrating to someone just getting used to his opposable thumbs...

At the moment we do have a Where's Wally going on with Levy. London, Croatia, Miami, Madrid

I kind of trust the reporters in Croatia the most on this one as no ITK has been given one way or the other. But I do realize that choosing that options is the most self-serving of all four with "we get the wunderkind and keep the superstar" :bag:

Mate, if Madrid were sniffing round Suarez instead and were negotiating with Liverpool then he'd be off in a shot!

I'm pretty damn confident that Bale will still be with us come September but I think Liverpool may have to buckle and sell Suarez regardless of whatever rhetoric John Henry is spouting.

Sort of just betterlooking obviously. If you by chance have guessed who I am do not post on it on here please.

do you still work as a p.e teacher in epping Clive? Cracking left back that you were.

On what j.j is saying he is undoubtably correct bale is not sulking. Not that I would disagree with j.j but bale will not leave this year in my opinion.

Where is the LOVE rating? I LOVE this Bale news.

Well that's what we are all hoping, win win in so many ways!
