Gareth Bale (Rumour to Deal Done)

[Khilari]

Good post, mate. The bit in bold, though, I've honestly never actually heard anything from Ancelotti that says he actually 'wants' Bale? If anything it's been as though he's more than happy with what he's got, happy with his young new signings, whilst Bale is sort of being forced upon him by Perez.

You may be right - I guess Ancelotti letting the cat out of the bag about negotiations at least confirm from a RM source other than Perez and AS / Marca drivel that something big is happening behind the scenes.

IF Lamela and Willian sign, I'd find it hard to believe Bale would stay. How awesome would a front four of Soldado with Lamela Willian and Bale behind him be...?! We can only dream...

Who says he has, mate?

I'm not saying he has, but surely he wouldn't sign for them without knowing where he fits in, and it can't just be discussed 3rd hand through his agent. Can't believe he'd sign for them without some personal discussion

If any club would sign someone just for the sake of it, it's Madrid.

Yeah easley just answered for me. Bale will be nothing more than a propaganda signing because Perez is a jealous **** who can't stand the fact that Barca got Neymar, so he has to try and show everyone he has a big cock. The guy is a total prick & I feel sorry for Bale if he's unable to recognise what the fuck he's possibly walking into.

We should definitely stick a first refusal clause into his contract if we sell, just in case he flops in Madrid

I'm not too sure if Bale fully appreciates the pressure he'll be under when/if he rocks up at the Bernabeu

 

[Rupstoh]

Is it me or is this becoming obvious as it must be falling into place.

Bale deal to to Real agreed a while ago for stupid money.

Levy and Baldini get active in the transfer market in a big way.

Ronaldo to go back to Man Utd to help Real offset the Bale price.

Rooney is sold to Chelsea for to offset that deal.

Luiz sold to Barca.

Suarez stays where he is and Arse buy Micah Richards from Man City for silly money.

And a gooner told me that theory at work today

Ronaldo doesn't want to live in Manchester.

Ronaldo doesn't want to live in Manchester.

really? How do you know that?

 

[HappySpur]

Because it's Manchester.

Do you think that Ronaldo will settle in Manchester when he retires from playing?

 

[Berglad]

Because it's Manchester.

Of course he won't - I didn't suggest that. He'll just move back to one of the properties he owns on the continent.

 

[Bofbro]

Because it's Manchester.

Nothing wrong with Manchester, lived here for 15 years now.

Oh calm down. An open door is an invitation. I would have done the same thing with my own city.

 

[WilliantheBrazillian]

Madrid are in no way, shape or form going to sell Ronaldo to United or anyone. Bale or no Bale, they'd be handing the La Liga title to Barcelona and Perez would be doing the opposite of what he's trying to do by making the signing - i.e. royally piss off the fans. There's no chance of Bale prompting his departure.

@GrantWahl - Real Madrid source: Gareth Bale acquisition is happening. Says he doubts Fábio Coentrão will end up being part of it.


Grant is a proper journalist. I have no doubt this is what he was told.
