Gareth Bale

[hutchiniho]

Odds on with the Bookies to go to China.
(I know that’s a response to where the money’s going but they don’t often get it wrong)
After his Madrid contract it’s the only other place in the world where he’s going to get close to 600kpw.
Added on top Madrid sound like they aren’t going to do him any favours and cover a contract payout or wage top up.
They’re just going to push him to whoever will pay up the most.
Bale’s not going to give a monkeys about China either, he’s won the lot, and it would be hard to pick out a club that will do as well as Real have done recently anyway. he doesn’t socialise in Madrid so won’t worry about another country or language.
Early bed, stroll around a few parks, best player by a mile, then a few holes of golf. Retire at 33.
As some have said, what a waste.
Would have been good to see, Kane and Bale tear it up But I guess that huge contract has hampered any return Home and a desire to go full tilt back in the Prem doesn’t seem to be there anyway.

Onwards and upwards with Lo Celso and Ndombele. Maybe even a resigned Eriksen too.

As would we. Means nothing. There is always a way. Especially with that club. If Manchester United wanted Gareth Bale, they would 1000% sign Gareth Bale.

Well! They WANT him, but can’t afford him! How is that?

Zidane is a dick, he makes me well sick”
I know Danny won’t fail, we is gonna get Bale”

Close thread ??

In this well rendered rhyming couplet, the poet, RikkiRocket, through a conceptually taut internal rhyme, connects the essence of Zidane with the function of being ‘sick’. Indeed, the presence of the pejorative ‘dick’, in this example early 21st Century slang for penis, illuminates the poet’s disdain for Zidane thoroughly and eschews ambiguity (often the first refuge of the inferior poet) for refreshingly stark condemnation. One can only marvel at the urgency of language, the direct and concise application of sophisticated poetic devices that Mr RikkiRocket deftly deploys here

@WHL should also be falling on his sword for giving a Funny rating. Insta-ban worthy.

Amazing really to see a talent like that deciding to retire from top flight football so early

It's a really sad waste for everyone involved.

I hope he goes to China. he’s got to do what’s best for his great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great grandkids.

I mean, they can’t be having just the 10 mansions, they’re gunna need at least 20.

With my Bale induced stiffy? Ok.

He’s coming home.

I'm in bits!

 

[RikkiRocket]

Mate, that’s exactly what I was aiming for ?

 

[Tiffers]

Hypothetically, if Real Madrid offered a straight swap for Eriksen and both players wanted it to happen, would you swap Bale for Eriksen?

Good business provided we got GLC as well

I’m fine. Thanks for the concern tho. Appreciated.

Such a shame if Bale goes to China. He is way too good for that

It’s like playing for Brentford but picking up R Madrid wages... has gold digger written all over it.

If this is true I don't see him going to China. I'm sure his family would much prefer staying in Europe.

 

[Japhet]

I'd rather he sat tight in Madrid and played golf than go to effing China. If more money than he already has is that important to him I really have no idea what's going on in his head.

 

[Indisguise]

I don't think he'll go to China. He might have won four Champions Leagues but he still hasn't got a Premiership trophy. I reckon he'd love to come back and try to win the PL with us.

 

[gilzeantheking]

What an absolute waste ofhis talent - if true.

With us!!

 

[ButchCassidy]

Why is everyone suddenly acting like we’ve had a bid accepted and Bale just has to choose between us and China? Trix and others have intimated we’re nowhere close to what Madrid would want. It’s not a personal snub of Spurs for him to go elsewhere.

 

[Gbspurs]

They can’t afford him!!!

If the world's richest club can't afford you maybe it's time to re-evaluate your demands.

It’s all about very creative accounting/sponsorships etc ?

Error corrected. In all other aspects a sublime and laser sharp critique and review of this gem from the great RikkiRocket.
