Transfer window always makes me smile - it's reached a stage where agents, managers and those specifically involved with the transfer and contract of a player can say, "No, there's no story here - contract in place, happy where they are, manager not selling" but that doesn't weigh up against a speculative journo and that feeling of hope 
We're a funny bunch, but it's a reflection of the way football works now; contracts are basically worth dick.

Shame.
Although I hope people don't get angry if we don't sign Bale and 'only' end up with someone like Martial.

The only way that would annoy me is if we had every chance of signing Bale, but chose not to in favour of the younger player with more potential and future re sale value.
In reality though I’m not even so sure Bale is going to leave Mardrid and it’s still a bit of a pipe dream.
Martial is a good player and Poch could probably coax more out of him than Mourinho. Would still be a decent signing, but I think some are overstating his impact.

Life must be very cold when you have no dreams.

I would guess that it’s always been a long shot, but not completely off the radar. Hence this may be Levy’s kind of deal, imagine the kudos he’d get going in to the new stadium and re-signing Bale?! He knows this too, it would be mega for the club and for him personally. His defining moment no doubt.
Mind you would love him back here but even if Madrid sell him he would join one of he Manchester clubs over us.Don't get why everyone's convinced he would return to us as it would be a major step back in his career.

He's nearly 29, got a history of injury and Zidane ain't a fan by all accounts. I completely disagree: I think we'd be a fantastic option.
