Gareth Bale

[Robbie]

Until you guys sign a top CB, I'd have to say that Madrid have a big advantage this season. One injury to Pique or Puyol, and things could get really bad. Hopefully you guys throw a massive bid at Hummels or Subotic, or try to get Howedes from Schalke.

How do you figure that? In our record breaking last season. Puyol was injured more often than not.

Yeah against La Liga fodder, the likes of Mascherano and even Adriano and Barta can do a good enough job. In fact, even without Messi the club won 6/6.

The fuck? Real bid 100m euro?

You kidding???

Source? If so, shit just got real.

I read somewhere yesterday(marca or md) that tottenham asking price was 120m

 

[Ursegor]

Anything beyond € 30 million for him is a joke. He is Tello with more muscle + a stupid goal celebration.

That sounds like Levy (Chief Executive). Spurs are a selling club. It's only a matter of time before they sell.

But still ... the price of transfer fees is getting/has gotten ridiculous.

 

[Luftstalag14]

I don't care for Bale (well, if he does go to RM it will make me distress because of their lineup), what worries me is RM's deep pocket and the much inflated transfer prices thanks to the likes of RM and PSG. That means it will be much harder for us to sign and pay for the players we want in the future, unless we squader away our money like they do.

 

[USWAY]

Unlike some, I think Bale is a great player, but Spurs would be stupid not to take 100 million and run with it. Geez you can buy an elite LW replacement AND the striker they've been looking for with that kind of money.

It would be sweet when Perez does pay that amount

 

[abual3bed1]

Perez is considering a 90m + Di Maria/Coentrao bid.

 

[Jenks]

Levy is an absolute baron. He'll wring every penny he can out of Real Madrid.

No... just no...

But yeah, this deal is brilliant! I'd take it in a heartbeat if I were Levy. The Di Maria plus money is best.

 

[SwiftGuyver]

don't Real have some kind of deal in place with Spurs? basically Spurs get first choice on loaning Real youth products and Real get first dibs on any Spurs players they want?

anyway i hope they sign him for as much as possible! i trust Levy to squeeze as much money as he can out of them!

it's a shame they signed Isco & Illarramendi this summer but i'm glad they sold Higuaín and could lose di María in this Bale deal...

di María deserves better than Spurs though!
