Literally the only bad part about this window is Assou Ekotto and now having to rely on Rose, but fair enough AVB seems to have faith in him and he has been spot on during his tenure here. We've still had by far the best recruitment of any EPL team, a fact even Arsenal fans are quick to...
I've been led to believe that Bale is being sheltered from the media....like any good star player should do in a situation like this. The reality is, we don't have any concrete information on what is going on. It is really just hearsay at the moment. He could very well turn up on the bench for...
Even with the Willian fiasco, I severely doubt Spurs would let Bale go unless they had some players lined up. Methinks we will just have to be patient.
I'll wait for official confirmation, but gee, going from ryantegan and a lot of other ITKs, it looks like this is happening today, for better or worse. No matter which way it goes, I will say as an ardent Spurs fan that I have loved every moment (well, perhaps not every last one ;)) of Gareth's...
With due respect, I know how transfers work. And again, I think setting a price of 100 million pounds if he actually does want to leave won't work for anyone as, at the end of the day, we will never get anyone to pay that price. Hence the prospect of haggling. If he wants to leave, keeping him...
I'm actually really starting to wonder just what price we are holding out for, and how close Madrid have come to matching it. I still don't trust the media for a second - though, again, at the price reported, I would jump on it right quick and start looking at replacements. We need to get this...
I don't mind them spending the money they have available, but the problem with football in a lot of leagues is that the rich clubs dominate and only get richer. Buying success is the name of the game, rather than development - with some notable exceptions, of course. If indeed they have gone for...
If Di Maria and Coentrao were involved in a Bale deal, I would be happy. Di Maria is pretty heavily under-rated, I've watched him more than enough to know that is the case. Definitely a serial diver though. He plays a big hand in a lot of Madrid's goals.
If we can get Eriksen it should more than make up for losing out on Willian. Granted, he obviously isn't in the same class right now, but he could very well be in a few years. Hell, for all we know, Willian could be a Robinho-level flop in England. A difference of 20 million pounds or more...
Even then, I still wouldn't place him as high as the media suggests (i.e. around 100 million pounds/euros). I heard that there were a whole bunch of clauses in a lot of Bale's marketing deals that would greatly benefit us on the unfortunate occasion he left. Not sure on the validity but it is...
Even for Abramovic, splashing 30+ million pounds just to stop a rival club for the top four (key note, not the title) attaining a player seems a bit....strange. Either they are moving someone on or there is more to this than we have guessed.
Has anyone considered the possibility that if we sell Bale soon and Chelsea still haven't completed the Willian deal, we might match their new offer? Just curious, because by the sounds of it, Willian himself would prefer to come here.
By the way, I don't think criticizing Willian for...
