I really dont like this Bale will stay if we get champions league football comment, i thought he would stay whatever for at least one more year.
I think he will stay for at least one more year whatever happens.
He's younger than when Modric and Berba moved on.
He's got a young kid.
He still goes home to Wales whenever he can (apparently)
He's playing well, doing well and getting recognition.
He may have no inclination to move abroad.
There are a very limited number of clubs that could afford him.
Plus, if we do get CL then that should suffice for a year anyway.
Either way, he's already given us 6 years so that's a good amount of service already so I wouldn't begrudge him a move, much as I don't want him to leave.
I'm pretty sure he's stated previously he'd like to play abroad at some point...
At the end of the day the aim for Spurs to get into the Champions League is to attract the bigger named players. Problem we have is that Levy won't pay out for the bigger named players so it really will not be too much of a disaster if we don't qualify. Gareth will be off to Real Madrid and so will AVB. When and if the latter happens I will call myself an ex Spurs fan. What is the point of making so much progress in what we have become only to grab a wad of notes off the highest bidder and fudge it all up.
yeah whats the point in supporting a side that can't break the top 4
Gareth Bale is now just one goal shy of being the first Spurs player to score 20 Premier League goals in a season since Jurgen Klinsmann in 1994-95.
Although the PFA Player of the Year Award won’t be officially announced until Sunday night, The Sun newspaper is reporting that Gareth Bale has won the award and has achieved the honor of winning it for the second time alongside other two-time winners Thierry Henry, Alan Shearer and Cristiano Ronaldo.
i really hope he wins this because winning it a third time with us might be enough reason for him to stay.

I think Bale deserves to win not only the PFA and Young Player of The Year awards but also the FWA award as well. Remember Ginola won both the PFA and FWA award when we were a mid table team. Bale's impact has really helped us to fight for top 4 places all season. I think neutrals have also enjoyed watching Bale more than the likes of Van Persie or Suarez. All of his goals have been of world class quality as well.
