Gareth Bale

Re: Gareth Bale

I think if we want to stand a chance of keeping him happy, we need to get him back amongst the lads as soon as possible. Like Steff said, his isolation from the banter and team spirit he so obviously enjoys is making it much easier for Barnett, Zidane and Perez to get into his head. Put him back into the regular squad, and maybe we’ll see a smile return to his face, which would utterly horrify the likes of Perez and Mr.Fifteen Percent.
 
Re: Gareth Bale

that's a funny conclusion to draw mate :lol:

he won't make it at Madrid because his head has been turned - even more funny when you open the post saying you don't even understand what it means :p

****

I do - but if I make a decision generally I stick with it (if I know full well that the opportunity wilcome round again). Ive been in a similiar position where I worked for a smaller company, I was offered a position at a larger company but I knew it was just a year or two too soon. I got the opportunity again and moved. My head wasnt turned and yes we are all different etc.

I didnt say he would fail because his head has been turned - I dont think he is strong mentally YET and I used the whole head turning as 'evidence' to support that conclusion.

Anyways we will see - I think Levy may put in a first refusal option for us at a specific price if he doesnt succeed.

We havent even seen the upset face of Bale yet.

Where is he actually? Are the players not training?
 
Re: Gareth Bale

Ronaldo seems to have got on ok with Real after having his head turned by them whilst at United ;)


anyway - we don't know what Real have been telling Bale behind closed doors but id wager a months wages they have been in almost daily contact with his camp as the window has trudged on.

no offence mate but being an accountant (?) and putting off a top job for a year or two is slightly different to having the worlds most famous football club begging to sign you as a player

I think Ronaldo had that arrogance you sometimes need. I dont think Bale does. Im coming across like I know Bale inside out (maybe I do maybe I dont ;))
 
Re: Gareth Bale

I would much rather AVB be the the one speaking to Bale and his family rather than Levy or Baldini. I think a heart to heart discussion where AVB is allowed to discuss his plans for the up coming season would be a better way to convince Bale that his future lies here (much like Lambert with Benteke).

That is a great point. But it does not seem to be a concern to AVB. Maybe it should be (or maybe it is!)
 
Re: Gareth Bale

Just waiting for the Bale hands in transfer request breaking news on sky now. It's going to be a horrible feeling.....

At least it would speed up whatever outcome will arise. Worst case scenario is this drags on for the rest of the transfer window affecting our business and goes balls up on transfer deadline day
 
Re: Gareth Bale

A few weeks back, Madrid had agreed to back off and stop tapping Bale & Barnet up and everyone thought it was done until next summer, when he would move on.

Ancelotti came in and told them he wanted Bale at all costs. We don't want player+ deals, and we were not interested in selling the player because, bluntly, HE was happy enough to stay one more year. Then they stepped up their dirty process.

How do you know this about Ancelotti ?
 
Re: Gareth Bale

Anybody a bit worried how this will affect AVB's relationship with the club? (if Bale leaves)

AVBshould understand the precariousness of the situation. Levy didnt decide to sell Bale, Bale decided to act a bit tacotish through Barnett (unfounded but based on everything here etc) and RM decided to act like ****s (they were ****s before but now they are like the **** of a Jo Brand).

AVB will be happy with the 50m warchest.
 
Re: Gareth Bale

If the bid goes up to 100m would people be annoyed if we accept?

I'd accept it from PSG. fudge it, even Utd. Anybody but RM.


Cant sell him to Man Utd or any other premeirship team ..

If it has to happen, then 100 million plus to Madrid is fine with me ... We then get them in the 2014-15 CL and give Bale, Modders, Zidane , Perez a damn good hiding over two legs[-o<
 
Re: Gareth Bale

A bit. He has said he was promised Bale next season and that must have influenced his decision to stay at Spurs.

But Spurs is a great gig for him right now whether Gareth goes or stays. I do not expect him to stick around like Fergie but even without Gareth we have the players for him to put a trophy on his CV.
 
Re: Gareth Bale

not really. AVB should have always known where he stands in the order of things

plus it would show whether or not AVB is actually any good. making us win without the one man team .....goal to points won so to speak
