IMHO, Zidane is so disrespectful as a leader figure of the squad.
How do people find a way to virtue signal about this? The only reason to move over there as a footballer is for money.
Bale is hardly a culture vulture, is he? He thinks buenos dias is one of his Madrid teammates.
Given that almost all of SC were (not that long ago) in agreement that only two or three clubs could afford to do the deal I think it's safe to assume clubs aren't exactly beating a path to Madrid's door with offers. It's very likely that there aren't that many options right now and as far as I'm aware, the first hurdle to overcome, before Bale even gets to nod or shake his head at any offer, is that Madrid must accept one.
So IMO it's not a case at all of Bale turning down X, Y or Z (and remember, according to SC, they were the only clubs who could afford him) you have to wonder if there's actually been any vaguely acceptable offers made at all from the clubs who previously were written off as candidates by a lot of people on SC. I don't understand how we get from only three clubs can afford him to where we are now, people giving him stick for potentially going somewhere, when it's almost universally agreed that options are very limited.
It's still relatively early in the Spanish transfer window and there's still a lot of stuff to be played out but if, at the end of the day, an offer from China is all that's on the table, what's he to do? Stay at Madrid and effectively write off the twilight of his career or go to China and effectively write of the twilight of his career. Either choice will have people saying words like 'greed' or 'happy to play golf', so he can't win because he was supposed to have magically accepted an offer that wasn't there. And it's all stuff from us, who know absolutely nothing about how it all goes down, the ins and outs, the whole thing.
And before people say he should lower his demands........Why? That is something you do, if you do it at all, right at the last knockings of a transfer window, why would you do it with weeks to go? He's playing poker with Madrid and he holds a lot of the cards, he doesn't have to do anything on the hurry up even though that might disappoint a few people
I hear there is problems with the new Fu Man Chu movie due to racial stereotyping. With that haircut he’ll fit into that film really well. Or is that stereotyping in itself?
Zidane doesn't like Bale for the "style" he wishes RM to play. I think there was a bit of a falling out over that and I guess siilar to Poch, if you upset the manager, it's curtains.
Zidane also only come back on the proviso that GB would be sold.
Well his previous “style” seemed to be “pass it to Ronaldo” I’m guessing the new “style” will be “pass it to Hazard”
I hope he fails spectacularly this time round. Bald headed shit pigeon.
He couldnt learn Spanish in over six years so has got no chance of learning Chinese...
