Hmm I wonder if by 'both sides' he means Spurs and Madrid or Spurs and Bale. The way it's worded seems to indicate Bale and Spurs, and the follow up seems to reinforce that, talking about Madrid needing to lower their demands or Spurs needing to stump up the cash.

I can’t understand the love for him, to be honest. He left at the height of his powers, spent his best years giving service to another club and now wants out.

Taking him back would be like welcoming an ex-lover back into your bed after she’s had her fun with some other fella. Sure, the sex might have been good before and yes, the experience that’s she’s gained screwing another man might benefit me in the sack again, but she’s chosen a different path in life, one that wasn’t with me, so, as far as I’m concerned, it’s over between us and I’ve moved on. Banging N’Jie, GKN, Chadli, Lamela and others never gave me the same pleasure but it’s better than a wank. Plus I’ve got Moura and Son now.

Best post in weeks, that.

He doesn't want out though, he's being dumped so like your ex lover, will be needy and vulnerable and you hold all the cards.

i think RM are praying they can use Bale to get Pogba. They don't seem fussed about Eriksen so I don't think we hold any cards there. I'd personally really like to see RM get totally fucked on FFP and if you add Bale's contract onto what they've already spent this window, they must be very close. I also think we should be looking to the future, not the past and I also see no way the financials would make any sense for us at all.

In my opinion it’s a no-brainer - if it can be done.

With regard to Kane; I’m sure he will accept that a 3 time Champions League winning, title winning football superstar, brand, and talent will be the club’s highest earner.

His presence will lift the squad, lift the club, and will only have a positive affect in terms of team performance.

But yeah, 600k a week is ridiculous, and if he isn’t willing to take a cut, or if Madrid won’t shoulder some of the burden, then we’ll just have to move on.

But if it’s doable, we should do it.

It's not about this window. Ffp is measured over 3 windows. They are fine.

Been scarred by too many ex-player returns to get too excited about this.

I know that sounds dumb. But, fuck you.

It’s so unusual for such a high profile player on such high wages at such a big club to be so unwanted by a manager. If I can smell that there’s a fantastic deal to be done for an interested club that may be attractive to the player then I’m sure Daniel Levy will be absolutely salivating at this moment. I’d love to see a RM scorned Bale in a Pochettino Spurs side, whether that’s a popular view or not. Different levels.

That's exactly how it is as things stand.

The question has always been how badly to Madrid want him out, maybe these noises coming out of Madrid are suggesting RM are loosening their stance? I'm sure there is still a long way to go for it to be viable however...

But, she had given you her first time and you banged her enough when she was young. She was at her prime too while you were banging her but you just couldn't satisfy her other needs.

Ok, too much personification it's becoming steamy.
