    Bale's agent has called these stories that UTD are preparing a record bid "irresponsible journalism".

    Can't see it happening myself.

    It's just click bait. There is a story being built in the media that utd want to build a galatico style team even though utd are constantly harping on about doing things the United way etc etc, Giggs with the assistant manager, jan with the number 11 jersey the lip service of not sacking moyes and giving him a long term contract.

    Click bait and advertising dolla dolla bills is all it is about becuase no one buys the paper anymore.

    Hummels and Strootman would make us as strong as any team in Europe IMO. 433 and everyone fit

    De Gea

    Valencia. Jones. Hummels. Shaw

    Blind
    Herrera. Strootman.


    Rooney. Falcao. Di Maria

    There should be an infraction to anyone who makes a United XI with a team that doesnt comprise at least 9 United players.

    Asked about links with Bale, van Gaal said: "I cannot discuss that with you.

    "I discuss that with my CEO and not anyone from the media."

    He says that any time he is ever asked about a possible sale/purchase

    Valencia wtf?!?!

    Yeah he's better than Rafael now, didn't you get the memo?

    LVG has just said no one will be back for the next game other than maybe Smalling.

    He also said he's only using wing backs cos he has no fit full backs (paraphrasing a bit)

    Looks like back three for the next couple of games anyway.

    He also said, last week, that Rafael has been fit, but he has not been selected, I am pretty concerned about it right now

    Rafael was on bench last time out. Easing him back in I reckon!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,721 ✭✭✭Al Capwned


    Rafael is by far our best option at right back, and still a player that I hold out hope for to become a United legend.....
    I'll be delighted to see him back.

    Its just how he spoke, he said he compared and he did not make the selection, that he was fit to play again (last game) and we will see if he will make the selection, and he didn't.

    Super player, would make such a difference to the right side of our attack

    Graham Hunter said on off the ball that Bale is more than happy at Real Madrid and his dream was to play for them.
    That United offered more money to Spurs for him and told his agent they would pay him more than Madrid would, but Bale didn't want the move.
    Hunter said Bale will not be moving to the Premier League in the next year but maybe in the future like two to three years time.
    He also said United wouldn't have a free run as City would also want him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,775 ✭✭✭✭RobertKK


    ...and RTE are running with the story of United and €153 million for Bale as the top sports story.

    Flicking through the channels here and it appears MUTV is on freeview? I'm with Sky so I'm not sure if its just with them or if its UPC as well.

    Currently showing '96 FA cup semi against Chelsea :D

    Just got an early Xmas present from my brother and mother...tickets to the Southampton game in 3 weeks! He's apologising saying he thought, when he got them, it would be an "easier" game and has watched in dread as they've had a strong enough season.

    Don't care. Been a few years since I've got over (financial and other limitations!). Super excited now. Merry Xmas everyone :D
