The Godfather 72,484 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Spurs are going to be some team this season.Yeah I look forward to how they do but I reckon it will take them a little bit of time before they are firing on all cylinders on the basis they have so many new faces who are all first team players.I don’t expect them to challenge for the title this season but next season they will be right up there.

nelsonRFC82 305 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 My point is the 3 I mentioned are miles ahead of Bale, so how could anyone put him 3rd...Honestly can't get my head around Madrid's willingness to pay so much for Bale.For me there is a debate if he is even the best player in England or in the top 10 in the world yet, it would seem, is going to become the world's most expensive player???I don't think Bale has proved himself a level above the likes of RVP, Mata or Suarez and if you look further afield then you have (I'm not saying all these players are better than Bale...although some of them clearly are! but the rest surely comparable and worthy of debate):IniestaFabregasXaviOzilIscoMullerRobbenRiberySchweinsteigerGotzeReusIbrahimovicFalcaoCavaniPirloThis ignores the obvious Messi & Ronaldo who are miles ahead of Bale!

A few Englsih pundits say Bale is the 3rd best in the world but they obviously don't watch much Spanish or German football obviously! Typical remark from an English pundit Muller is one of Bayern and Germany's best players and is younger than Bale! The likes of Pirlo Iniesta and Xavi are impossible to compare to him though as they are older and more established but will be worth less. If Bale can referred in the same tier as these guys he needs to have seasons like last season for the next few years otherwise its a pretty bold claim to be making Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

maverick1200 2,846 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Everyone's laughing at Arsenal, but Man United are having just as much luck so far Man Utd have an excuse though. Moyes has had only 2 months to scout players he wanted because all the signings he was looking at for Everton would not be good enough. Wenger should of known his targets and got them in early.

jackg93 458 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Guillem Balague has revealed how Arsenal missed out on signing Spanish international David Villa for potentially as little as 2.3m euros.The 31-year-old joined Atletico Madrid from Barcelona this summer as he brought to an end his three-year stay at the Nou Camp. Balague told Revista that Arsenal tried to sign the player in January but failed to follow up that interest when Barcelona were eager to offload the forward this summerVilla was largely restricted to appearances off the bench in his final season at the Nou Camp as he made his way back from a broken leg, which kept him out of the game for eight months.And this, Balague suspects, was what deterred Arsene Wenger from making another bid for the player."In January Arsenal came and offered a four-year deal, about 20m euros, and some money for Barcelona. Barcelona said they were not selling," Balague told Revista."So I think that David Villa, who took his kids to a British school, expected Arsenal to come back but they didn't, because they saw that David Villa in the last six months was not happy and wasn't playing well, and they probably thought he is not what he was."Atletico Madrid came in and they got a deal for 2.5m euros - that is all for the first year. If he stays for three years it is 4.6m euros. Why so cheap? I found out that Barcelona have a first option on [18-year-old Atletico midfielder] Oliver Torres."Now if Atletico fans find out about that they might not be happy but it is one way of Barcelona saying they are getting rid of a big wage and getting a first option on this guy, and let go someone who was not happy either."Villa, who has replaced successful striker Radamel Falcao at Atletico, started their 3-1 victory over Sevilla and Terry Gibson hopes he can regain his best goal-scoring form this season."If you are going to try to get a replacement for Falcao - and it goes without saying his success at Atletico Madrid - David Villa is as good as you are going to get."I think they got him for a good price. I think he needs dusting down, get his sharpness back and become used to playing again in that position that he started in the other night - in the middle of attack."That is the old David Villa who played for Valencia and Zaragoza, and that we want to see. At Barcelona he played wider on the left. I am hoping he really gets back to enjoying his football and playing in his favourite position again."

I agree Arsenal have had a much worse summer, but people would probably be laughing at Man United if Arsenal weren't being so epically ridiculous.
