Could we buy Bale back

Page 3 of 3

Bale will probably see out the remaining 3 years of his £15m a season 6 year contract with Real Madrid and then move somewhere for free. By then he will be 30 years old.

If Madrid decide to cash in on him, he will end up at somewhere like PSG, £ity, United or maybe even Bayern. It is doubtful Levy would match those wages, even after we are in the new stadium.

The only chance he would come back to Spurs would be on a free after his contract expires, and for a massive salary.

Can`t see it ever happening myself.

Why would bale leave the biggest club in the world to go to a club who's main aim is a top 4 finish?

The same could've been said about VDV, whom had no prior affiliation with Spurs. Arsenal fans sometimes you just have to laugh..

Unfortunately I again find myself agreeing with chronic

This in itself cause me more upset than I felt when Bale left.

I have argued for years on here (and the old 606) that football was not all about buying the best players around. Great managers BUILD great sides, like Bill Nick did for us back in the 60's.

Compare Athletico with Real out in Spain for a start. Real for years have bought bought bought and Athletico have built. Still nto a lto to choose between the two sides other than the wage bill of course.

I loved Bale when he was with us and he was fantastic but we have changed and he has moved on. Still a great player but I am more than happy with the way things are at Spurs at the moment and have no wish for us to take a backward step.

Not only that but since Bale moved to Real he has spent half his life injured ffs so for me its a no.

That's a bold statement then Grand and Chronic. More or less what the both of you are saying is that if we do hit the heights we all hope wish for and a big player becomes available you would turn him down for fair of upsetting dressing room harmony or team chemistry. Even uniteds class of 92 needed the odd world class sprinkle from season to season. You mention athletico building instead of buying? Mandzukic, greizzman, turan, Koke all weren't cheap. As were many of their other players. I understand what your getting at though, peanuts in comparison to Real.

we are developing our own world class talents…

not there yet but plenty of players in this squad have the ability to go on and become world class.

Even still, when some of them reach that level, in my opinion a major signing every summer or second summer is the way to stabilise the squad and improve the overall marketability of Tottenham Hotspurs FC worldwide.

Koke came through their academy, Mandzukic was £15m.

Chronic,

And no real fan on the planet would ever reject him on a freebie. That is just pathetic.

------

unless they felt that a "star" player would upset the harmony and team ethic at the club, which would be detrimental long term......

not saying that is my view, just showing why your statement is hasty...

=============================

So you don’t necessarily oppose my opinion, but you thought you would give an opposing view anyhow...

after you labelling anyone who wouldn't take him on a free pathetic, I gave a perfectly valid reason why that statement is silly.

as usual however you have got your feathers in a twist about being challenged.

Chronic,

I'm just baffled why you feel the need to oppose my posts - even when you do not even disagree with them.

You are one very strange poster - that is for sure...
