The Godfather 71,874 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 That offer for Bale is ludicrous.Yip.3 years ago you wouldn't even swap him with either of them without serious thought.Just shows how bad they must want him and IMO how worried they are Ronaldo might be off.

ClydebankBearWATP 877 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Will Higuain and Coentrao want to join spurs but ? challengers for everything to a europa league team. Plus its like 200k+ wages for the two players and a bale replacement 250-300k wages. Its a non starter imo................ hopefully Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a non starter imo................ hopefullySpurs with those 2 players and £50 odd million to spend would become a top 4 team and a better one than currently. They would know that they were joining a team on the up. Plus London is a great city, I can see this happening if Madrid push for it as these 2 players would flourish under AVB IMO.

simplythebest 11,453 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Considering Bale's age it's hardly surprising he wasn't as good 2 or 3 years ago. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broxi 11,482 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Considering Bale's age it's hardly surprising he wasn't as good 2 or 3 years ago.But with most players you can spot the potential. Bale was about to be tossed out as dead wood. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broxi 11,482 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Moving forward from left back helped him a lot.I still maintain he's only had one good season. If he performs at the same heights again this coming season I will hold my hands up and give him the credit, but even his hype last season was still over the true reality, people putting him in the same sentence as Messi and Ronaldo, and now £80m transfer fees, never in a million years in my book.

Bale is on a fairly long contract if I remember correctly and Spurs won't let go unless it's a pretty special offer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSuedeSambas 53,775 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Manchester United have bid around £12m for Everton left-back Leighton Baines.Shit move. He's 28 and has no resale value. Moyes out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSuedeSambas 53,775 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 That's a £74million+ offer Absolutely crazy offer if its true (which I don't think it is)Spurs could buy two or three very good players for the 50 million and they would already be getting another two very good players as part of the deal too.Like I said if I was Daniel Levy I'd be offering to drive him.

The_Blue_Flash 390 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 £12m is a rip off for him, hes rubbish. I know Moyes has no experience of actually winning but if you bring the crap players with you, Utd will be cursed with your 11 year no trophies.Its pathetic he has already got rid of a brilliant back room staff, i mean what do they know they are winners, better to bring in his losing everton lot instead.

wully 47,329 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 How long does Baines have left on his contract? Seems a low bid.Two years, Martinez plans to extend it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueSuedeSambas 53,775 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Cheers mate, I think Man United would be better going for Luke Shaw or Ben Davies. Both have massive potential, in-fact if Everton can get a bit more money for Baines and get the green light to sign one of them, would be excellent business.Davies seemed to come out of nowhere last season All the talk was about Taylor and how he would move on to a bigger club, I think he was being linked with Arsenal this time last year, but Davies came in when Taylor got injured and was probably even better than Taylor ever was.
