Gareth Bale

[Metalhead]

Thankfully we won't to have to worry about this at all.

Absolutely.

Just praying it’s not to another PL team. Would make me sick watching him play for one of our rivals.

Some sort of deal involving Pogba the other way seems the most logical.

Got a feeling it'll be Man United.

Bayern makes so much sense. Huge club, Bale with point to prove at the highest level (CL, domestic titles), able to pay big wages due to fan base etc, clubs have a good relationship since taking James Rodrigues on loan, both Adidas sponsored teams, and with Robben and Ribery finished, it’s exactly the position they desperately need to fill with a name. 2+2....

i would fully agree with this, except i think read somewhere that their highest paid player is paid 165 to 225k Euros per year depending on what source you want to believe. So at that point, unless they are willing to break from tradition, they are in the same boat we are in and with him, we would be competing for titles, etc. Again, if neymar goes, PSG would have to be the front runner as they would have cash and salary in hand depending on the FFP impact.

Would we be offering Llorente another contract if Bale was coming back? Doubt it.

This post makes me sad (because deep down I can see it happening) ?

Hoping for a mad, unexpected, out-of-the-blue signing to us. We would win everything next year with Bale on board.

Absolutely.

I probably sound like a soulless bellend and you'd be right, but I just don't see how Spurs could ever bring him back into the fold, the money and number crunching is just too far beyond us.

It's a fun dream for all of us who enjoyed watching him tear teams apart though.

I hope, by the looks of things like a lot of others, he just doesn't pull on another prem. team shirt is all, that'd be fucking galling.

Wasn't there a few reports a few days ago saying we'd offered about £50m for him?

His agent then went on Talksport and said the story was garbage.

What a **** of a club Real are.

 

[Japhet]

It gets on my nerves when people complain about how much professional athletes earn an how it's an obscene amount of money.

No one put a gun to the head of the team executives and forced them to pay X amount of money for X amount of years. They agreed to pay it and every player and agent is well within their right to milk the club dry, especially in situations when the club no longer wants the player.

If you think football players earn a lot check out what some NBA and MLB players earn and I'm not talking about max contract players.

You can't accuse an athlete of being motivated by money because whether you realise it or not, we all are.

Gareth Bale is doing the right thing.

The people having the gun put to their heads are the fans with the season ticket prices, merchandising and TV subscriptions.

I think Bayern will get him as theyre ont he look out for a winger given that Robben and Ribery have now gone and they were unsuccessful with Sane. It may even be on loan.

I would hate it if he went to Manure but that is a possibility with Pogba going the other way plus getting cash from Real. Bloody hell imagine if he goes to Liverscum - arghhhhhhhhh

If we get him, id fuck the defence off and just go all out attack - who cares about defending when the opposition would be shit scared to attack

'If tomorrow would be better!' emphasis on '!' ??

 

[TheVoiceofReason]

It’s quite sad to think if he doesn’t sign for us now, he never will. Not sure I’m ready to give up on that idea!

 

[TheAmerican]

I wonder if Bale wants it still or if he’s over football.

I'm stubborn as fuck. If Bale were anything like me, I'd rather sit on my wages at that club in spite of those comments, than transfer to a new club.

 

[BunionBoy]

well he would fill a number of issues and could fill in as a back up striker so not as crazy as it sounds. Plus he is closer to Cardiff..

 

[barry]

Lads I just don’t see this happening at all.

Well this is all the confirmation i need. The staff here get pertinent information that can't be shared with the rest of the community due to its sensitive nature, so if Mr Stoof says this, you can pretty much guarantee it ain't happening.

 

[Guntz]

Would have to be a loan deal, but then all the clubs in Europe would want to take him on loan too.

I think it'll be PSG. No real reason why, but there's only about 3 options for him. China is too far away, and United probably wouldn't go in for him without shifting one of Pogba or Sanchez.

Not even going to entertain the idea of him coming home.
