Player Watch: Gareth Bale - Retires

[gazzeh]

Terrible grammar, "Bale's", Bale's what exactly?

Not to be taking advantage of a very serious and deadly health crisis. But you could go into college and start coughing everywhere? You'd be sent home quicker than someone saying "self-isolate".

Yeah dunno about that I have already had to self isolate haha

Bale is...

 

[TheChosenOne]

Have we ever signed two left back's in a single day before?

A single decade ?

 

[gazzeh]

What number will he wear Will Lamela be 3?? lool

Everybody keeps saying to try Ndombele as a 10 but what no one seems to realise is that's the position that covers the most ground in modern football Eriksen was always our highest KM per game in poch's best years. Ndombele is not a number 10.

With Bale and Son cutting in from either side and Kane being the complete forward he is we won't need a traditional 10. Gio and Ndom can do their thing in the middle with relative freedom while Hojbjerg sits and protects. Works beautifully on paper/in my head. No idea if it works in the real world.

mate im in my engineering classes online today. its not good.

im a visual learner and the only thing ive been able to visualize is everyone's new formation for the season

I'm getting hit with the outer bands of a hurricane as we speak. If the power goes out for any length of time.....

Bale is...

Does that work? I'm sure it doesn't. I'm aware it replaces the "i", but english wise, it's just awful.

It's the Mail. What do you expect?

 

[spursfan77]

This can’t be correct. The Times are saying Madrid won’t subsidise his wages.

 

[fuzzylogic]

Is anyone other than the kit man still at the club when Bale played for us last?

Geoff Scott

 

[Dashy]

Looks like I chose the wrong day to stop sniffing glue.

One of the best days on here.
The day we are closest to a Bale return. Hopefully
Big thanks to everyone.

Yeah of course it does.

I refuse to get excited about this until it's signed, sealed and delivered.

But BBC are reporting it, and even Ally Gold is saying he's hearing we are making a genuine attempt. He normally just rolls his eyes when anyone asks him about Bale.

Will. Not. Get. Excited. Yet!

Haven't we already confirmed our squad numbers for this season? Someone correct me if I'm wrong but unless Lamela leaves, surely Bale can't take #11?

 

[Neon_Knight_]

Have we ever signed two left back's in a single day before?

We've signed two players who should have been left back...does that count?

It's perfectly legitimate to use an apostrophe to contract phrases. "Football's coming home...".

Levy and Winksy

Thankfully, the in-house commentator isn’t.
