AVB did a very good job last season allowing for injuries and some very average personnel - he was 'baled' out many times with some welsh worldies.

No excuses this term IF we get what's been ITK'ed

Yep but I also think AVB did extremely well getting our record points total with two strikers who were basically crap last season. Any other year, with a striker scoring a medium to good number of goals and we would have got 3rd in the league. We now have Soldado and won't have to rely on Bale's screamers. :)

Interesting angle and certainly one to consider but too much smoke for there not to be fire with Bale's imminent depature.

POTL 'can't believe this is happening' regarding Lamela
POTL has never said Bale is going

= I still cling to some hope Bale is staying as even POTL didn't think we would get Lamela if Bale stayed (is how I read it).

I refuse to get too excited until a signing is on the OS so I refuse to get too down about Bale until on the OS. Circumstantial evidence may point to Bale going but ITK is very mixed to put it lightly. No doubt there is interest and we have probably named a price but plenty of suggestion RM can't / won't meet it and also plenty suggesting we don't need the Bale money to do our business this window.

You are indeed correct. We can't expect miracles in a short period of time.

But if that strikeforce lines up this season I'll be very excited.


christ yes I'm over the moon :)

I think I am happy now however this pans out.

Willian & Lamela in and Bale stays, then fantastic.

But if Bale goes and we get all those plus Contrao, then still a great window for us.

Until thus date, I have never shit, farted, & come all at the same time, quite an unusual experience, and in honour of the man himself am going to call it a Lamela

There you go, I have just Lamela'd

I've never Lamela'd but on a big night when I was 17 I was passed out in the back of my mate's car and managed to complete the "Grand Slam". He could never get rid of the smell completely.

I'm being silly here, but would like draft a teamsheet if we had Willian, Lamela AND Bale?

Sounds like we're so close to becoming a real force. 2 signings to go. So excited but until they've signed...

Me hormones are all over the place! :nailbiting:

Does anyone else think Levy's explination will be like this.....

Press.. So Daniel, tell us, why did you sell Gareth to Madrid for a world record bid of £100 million ?

Daniel.... Well, Gareth has a very rare degenerative muscle disease and will be in a wheelchair within three months. So it was either sell him now for £100 million or else wait to the next transfer window were we would only have got £60 million for him from Liverpool.

I was infact middle of writing the same. Agreed
can't believe this is happening may be not straightforward after all........



Atleast thats what I am hoping

Seriously if someone had told me we would sell Bale but sign these 3 with the money I would have said they were crazy. I love Bale but I would take those 3 over Bale anytime. An injury to Bale and we were screwed last season, an injury to one star this season does not affect our quality too much.

There's no Bale in Team :cautious:

Totally agree... :)
