Is Bale worth £100 million?
i think everyone knows utd were in for him but dont think he would ever of come to utd from spurs
It's total BS in my opinion.
If Spurs had have called our bluff and said "go on then 100m and he's yours"..........the tumbleweeds would have blown by.
No way on earth would we offer 100m for him when a player we needed far far far more (Cesc) we were bartering all the way for.
Pre 2005 (before the Glazers) we had the british transfer record. Since their arrival we've dropped to 5th in the PL alone.
They prefer the money going the other way.

no, but he's a sensational, match winning talent, Herrera is a very good midfield player but £31m is reserved for the very top end

i do think we made a bid though but not 125million
Why offer £25 million for Fabregas?
Why offer £12 million for De Rossi?
Very strange summer dealings. I always give the people who do these things the benefit of the doubt but it's bizarre how badly it went.

it couldnt have gone any worse tbh
A bid that was a pointless as a chocolate teapot. Bale only ever wanted Madrid.
We should bid for Messi in January, then we'll complete the set.

Messi's on the decline anyway. He's only scored 12 goals this season.
The thing I can't fathom about this story is why would Capello know?
He has nothing to do with United, he has nothing to do with Spurs, he has nothing to do with Bales and he has nothing to do with Wales.
Is this a story because he's a "football man" ?

He used to be the Real Madrid manager and while that alone doesn't give him some sort of mystical powers of knowing, i'd imagine being such a big guy in the football world he would know about a £100 million bid being made.
I've no idea if this is true or not but isn't he the second person to claim this now?
Not really sure why a man like Capello would feel the need to lie about something like this?
To think that Harry Redknapp couldn't get rid of Bale for £3mil...
How would Capello even know about this from his office in Russia?
I doubt very much whether we offered that. If we did thank goodness we didn't get him. That much on one player and yes he is every good but one injury and he is out for the season. As we have seen we need a few quality players. Spend 60-70 million on a LB and top CM
Yeah because we haven't had global communications networks for decades......
Sorry but I don't believe this is true, glazers would NEVER allow A bid of 100 million
No matter what the article says I think it's complete garbage.
I wouldn't be surprised if you were willing to pay a lot for him. I've heard god knows how many times that you thought you would get Ronaldo in the summer and I personally believe that too, so there was the money there for me.
Agree about the Fabregas one, that was bizarre. Difference between your outgoing chief exec and your incoming perhaps?
Bale wanted Madrid this is from his own words.
Does this class as a snub?
Most sensible blue on here ^
