You think it wasnt? :lol:

Not really. Pace, power, youth, technique. I thought he was destined for greatness. I was on here prior to you guys getting Neymar, and I was adamant that Bale would be the better option on the LW.

Or did you mean the fee?

Ofc i mean the fee.

Also the fee is the issue with Sideshow too. If they got him for 25-30m wouldnt have been bad

The fee was ridiculous I agree. But what fees aren't? Football has gone mad, and the fees only ever go in one direction: Upwards.

In a decade for now, the world record fee will probably be £150m or something crazy. Maybe even more.

The amount of clubs that have sugardaddys is always on the rise. In 2004, there was Chelsea, nowadays there is City, Psg and Monaco too.

It's becoming more and more competitive, and when you get a phenomenal player in Bale, after the season he had last year, then you do all you get to get him: even if you over pay by 20m. Complete winners mentality Real had in getting the job done.

20m? Try something like 50m

Yeah I agree the fee was ridiculous but so was the fee for Neymar and our deal for Zlatan and now PSG's for Luiz and lots of other deals (esp to Russia).... Thats just the way its going now.... Before 20-35mill used to be a lot but now thats what you pay for a average player like Andy Carroll lol

What's annoying from here as a fan of PSG, is that when RM spends 100M euros on a player that even if very good doesnt worth that much, there's not much reaction because it's a big historic club.

When a club like PSG does big spending, there are way more nonsense, insults, sarcasms, harsh words and jokes flying around.

If people make fun of DL for 45M, i can't understand if they dont make fun of Bale for 100M. Sure bale is a better player than Luiz, but it doesnt mean 100M was a good deal in any way.

Thats why i hate oil clubs and Madrid. Not only paying ridiculous sums but also spoiling the market for others.

It's hard to curb it. I hope something happens, but there will always be ways around restrictions. Theres no clear and easy way to stop big clubs from spending big.

I wouldnt be too sensitive about people making fun of newly rich clubs... thats what happens when you suddenly come into lots of money. Also if Luiz had of been a guaranteed starter for Chelski all season then I doubt people would query it as much but he wasnt so it is high.. ... People also questioned MAtas fee..... I dont remember people mockin PSG over their other deals (maybe they did tho) but this one is a bit different. Personally I think he will be a great signing for you but that you paid about 15 mill over the odds for him

I am a PSG fan and i think DL's deal is contender for the worst deal of the year. Now maybe i will be proven wrong.

I try to be fair and be logical while putting aside my fanboyism. You know i was the first to say we would fail against Chelsea after PSG won 3-1 by with an enormous amount of luck.

And my guts tell me it's not a good deal.

That said, I've kind of enough of the harsh - out of place - comments towards the club i support.

Everyone was making fun of Bale mec ! Everyone was saying that it's too much… but since his goal in Copa Del Rey, there's no more talk about his price.
But we all know that he's worth 50/60m euro, no more.
