Gareth Bale

[RichieS]

7 supercars.
Well 4 of those could be vintage. 1 is awaiting parts, 1 overheats in traffic, 1 is not road legal and 1 is so rare it could not be taken out in public.
So he is down to 3.
The wife is out in one as she likes the sound system.
Now he has only 2, and one of those is open top and the forecast is rain.

1 bleeding supercar and that is due for a service next week and he'll end up having to drive to the golf course in the au-pair's runabout Audi.

Now if only he had £1m p/w....

Ha ha! This is a perfect analogy for how some people view our squad - "Yeah, but who's going to play up front if Kane, Son, Lucas and Dele are all out?!".*

*Yes, I am aware this actually happened last season.

Watching Real Madrid again today and while Zidane might think he doesn't need Bale I think he may well be out of his mind. I know its pre-season but something is not right with this Real team and Bale would make a difference for sure.

And now there's a rumour he was playing golf last night instead of playing against us Although that said golf is just going for a walk so you could feasibly play it even if you were out injured with a moon boot and crutches

There’s a photo taken by the media. But it could have been at any time really. Just Madrid stirring stuff.

RMs problems aren’t at the forward position. Hazard and Benzema look good to me for a first runout. They weren’t pressing well but Bale wouldn’t solve that issue. But Modric and Kroos have lost a few steps and the game / our midfield simply passed them by yesterday. Modric benched against Fener today. Their fullback play (esp Marcelo’s form) has also been really bad. Zidane wants Pogba and brought in Mendy for a reason. They have a fullback and central midfield problem and they look awful.

Agree..particuarly in regards to Marcelo and midfield. Just feel Bale still has so much to offer there or at a top team.

Just wanted to hear SC opinion

Would you prefer Bale or Dybala?

Lazy jurno work will link him with spurs... AND I CANT WAIT!

Bale for me! All day, everyday, including weekends.

Oh I know, hence why I didn't post the photo. I just find the whole situation hilarious tbh

Bale

Premiership proven and with a friendly arm round the shoulder from Poch would be back to his devasting best.

 

[Lighty64]

I honestly think he will stay put unless RM pay him off and release him.

he had an offer to go to China with a team in 2nd willing to pay a fee and give him silly wages, and he refused to go.

he then decided to go because another team offered him a wage but on a free. Madrid pulled the plug and has upset Bale

 

[mil1lion]

The only way I see him going is if it's a loan deal. That way Zidane might be gone (again) by the time his loan ends and he'll go back.

 

[yankspurs]

Madrid really have convinced themselves that all Bale does is play golf. It's quite bizarre.

 

[Rocksuperstar]

The longer this goes on the more I start looking at Zizou and Perez. If the reports hold water, Perez made the call to pull out of the deal with China and he recognises that he has a lot of money tied up in Bale so where does that decision leave him and his manager?

Is Perez going to insist he's in the squad? I mean, we talk about his enormous wages, i'm pretty sure we haven't factored in the cost to Real of his bonuses for goals, games, achievements etc. so Perez hasn't made this decision lightly. Is it a power play on Zidane?

Like I said before, ITK proof. It's a clown show.

 

[Spurs 1961]

Perez rules at RM like DL does at Spurs. No one will force them to do anything they don't want to. It could well be Zidane doesn't last beyond September if there is not a massive improvement at the club.

Jose is available!

Just got a little feeling now the Chinese window has closed.....

Just got a little feeling now the Chinese window has closed.....

he's definitely running out of viable options

 

[Joeyboey]

Can he play right back?
