    And it's begging to hype up and stir even more... this time Sky Sports saying it, such bull****!

    The same Shaquiri who last week was apparently available in January for 10m?
    Madness.

    Bale to United is possible, the people running the rumours say his children will be school going age soon and a move back to the UK would be for family reasons and Bale likes the thought of playing for United.
    How much is true is anyone's guess.

    I'd like to think it's a "no smoke without fire" scenario. There's far easier stories that would make far more sense for the journalists to pull out of their asses (David Luiz for our defensive woes; Aaron Ramsey and Jack Whilsire in a massive double swoop coup to fix out mid field, etc).

    I'd love Bale. After Ronaldo, he'd probably be second on my "dream signings" list. So I'll remain cautiously optimistic about it :P

    Bale....really.

    Considering his buyout clause as with most La Liga players is outragous (I believe his is 1BN) then Madrid would need to be selling. Sure I'd take him in a heartbeat, but I really dont see that happening.

    I wouldn't pick David Luiz for a school yard kick about....

    I wouldn't mind David Luiz actually. We always had a good head-case type figure to rally the troops like Rio, Vidic, Roy Keane and Scholes. We're missing that now.


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


    Di Maria helped fund the purchase of James Rodriguez and Kroos.
    The sale of Bale would be for similar reasons.

    Saw this and had to share,kinda puts paid to the Fergie Time jibes from Liverpool fans.

    Some snippets of a Fergie interview to be shown on boxing day

    He says watch LVG fly when the players are fit. He says Carrick is the best CMF in england and evaluates some other players.

    The best part for me was how very proud and happy he seems for the "kid" DDG :)

    Wonder what our latest goal was? Owen? Macheda?

    It's not RAWK-are you lost or did you wander in here on purpose to post your usual nuggets of wisdom?

    Hey, I was only making the point that your post made no sense and your response backed that up :) Back it up instead of a jibe back that doesn't actually make sense either as no goals were last season?

    Anyone can wander in and comment on a post btw.

    Funny that two of the top four there came in the same match. Can remember it well, both were penalties. It finished Arsenal's title hopes that season.

    Would be interesting to see how many goals each team scored after 90 mins though

    The person who designed the sculptor put too much thought into this...

    Looks about ten years younger since he retired. Delighted for him.

    DeAndre Yedlin granted a work permit for Spurs after signing from Seattle in the summer. Really think we missed a trick there, young, athletic, pacey and I think he has a lot of potential. Could have been a perfect combo of cover and competition for Rafael.
