He's not even close to fitting Levy's financial or Poch's footballing models.
Unless we have a half price buy back deal and Gareth's so headf***ed He's willing to take a 50% wage reduction it is not happening.

He's got United written all over him, silly money and galactico performances where he doesn't need to work, just like Pogba.

Not so sure about this. Bale has the same agent as Luke Shaw. They also have Sanchez now so don't really need Bale.

Since when have UTD bothered about a player being needed or not. Martial was finally coming along nicely, one Sanchez later, total feck up.

Mourinho has looked a bit desperate in trying to turn around United's fortunes as their appeal has dropped. He's desperate for top class players even if there is baggage/flaws/injuries so I can see him being all over Bale. He'll offer Real big money and Gareth a big wage.
I always believe anything is possible and I'd love to think Bale wants out of the galactico lifestyle so would rather return to Spurs for less money than shithouse Mourinho's ego show but I find it hard to believe.

I expect he'll most likely end up a MU. Will be horrible to see him play for them, but not not nearly as horrible as seeing him a Chelsea shirt......that would be unforgivable.

Way waaaaaay too earlier to be making such a bold statement and you could well be made to look rather silly in the upcoming years...

Like the dude who said he would eat his underwear re: Kane (see one of my signatures below).

Nah I always backed Kane, right from when he was playing UEFA games for harry... he got that touch. I saw it in Kane but I don't in Sess. I'll say it Sess will never match bales career. A world record transfer, 3 champions leagues? No way. Got a lot to do to prove he could be a top prem player. Bale made my eyes pop out when I first saw him. Sess just hasn't impressed me that much apart from scoring, seems uninvolved in much of the play and nothing special on the ball. I think he could become a decent striker as he seems to have that knack of roghtbplace right time, but I feel I assessed the situation correctly. :D

Mourinho has history with stock piling players to stop others buying them.. Did it at Chelsea in a big way particularly his first term as manager.

He used to have a sense of humour. Now he just really annoys me with the constant whinging and sense of entitlement. Even if Chelsea beat us in the final, I really want to put United out. Although I'm really torn on this one as I couldn't bear to get beaten by Chelsea.

Let Utd pay him 400k a week to play 12 games a year for them.

We had Bale 2011 edition. This one is a sad replica with bad hair, literally don't want him.

He's not a Mourinho player in the slightest either. Would be a strange signing for all parties bar Real, so it'll probably happen for an extortionate fee, wages and headlines.

The overall market price has gone up... essentially inflation,but yeah, at that price it's probably Man United, PSG or bust.

Or a Levy special when they all pass...

VdV was a bit injury prone, but was still dream-boat!
