Gareth Bale

[Norbs]

best stadium i've been to,i think its well better than the nou camp.

I've only ever seen the Nou Camp from the outside. What I loved most about the Bernabau were the heaters in the roof

I just don't get this from Madrids point of view, he'll be second fiddle to Ronaldo, he won't be afforded the free role Spurs have him nor will he get any of the freekick responsibilities because he isn't close to being in Ronaldos class, he'll be stuck out on the wing a position he publicly stated he didn't want to play. Bizarre

I can think of £97m reasons why he won't mind playing on the wing

I agree it's a no brainer for monkey boy I just don't see the fascination from Madrids stand point as he won't be playing in the same role he did at Spurs and won't be anywhere near as effective

Tottenham are reportedly considering offers for Gareth Bale from more than one club, not just Spanish giants Real Madrid.

Real have been leading the chase to sign Bale all summer, but in a new twist to the transfer saga they face competition for the Welshman's signature.

Reports in Spain over the weekend suggested Real were finally edging nearer to sealing a world record deal for Bale with Tottenham reportedly ready to do a deal with the Spanish giants.

However, it has now emerged that no deal has been agreed between Tottenham and Real and that the White Hart Lane club are weighing up offers from other clubs.

Spurs are resigned to losing Bale and now they are believed to be considering offers from another club as well as Real Madrid.

Manchester United have been credited with an interest in Bale, but it remains to be seen if David Moyes' side are the ones who have entered the race for the 24-year-old.

Bale has missed Tottenham's opening two Premier League wins over Crystal Palace and Swansea with a minor injury and Andre Villas-Boas admitted after Sunday's game with Swansea that he wanted the saga to be resolved this week.

"We've gone on with our business," Villas-Boas said when asked about Bale following the 1-0 win over Swansea.

"Gareth, unfortunately for us, hasn't been part of our squad, but we have a big squad to choose from.

"This team can only develop and we look forward towards the future.

"With Gareth or without, we can be stronger."

Carlo Ancelotti would not be drawn into discussing Bale at his latest news conference on Sunday as he kept his focus on Real Madrid's next game.

"I don't like to speak for two reasons, first of all because Gareth Bale is not a player of Real Madrid at this moment, and also because I need to have respect for my players," said Ancelotti.

"They are here and we are focusing on our game tomorrow.

"I know that at this moment it is easy to talk about the market because it is very close to the end.

"I do hope the Monday deadline will arrive very soon."

think spurs are trying to get more cash from Madrid and their stupid enough to pay it

[Muddled]

Just a load of bollocks which has - more than likely - been leaked from Spurs to force Madrid's hand and move things along.

Would laugh my arse off if Madrid pull out of this transfer. They're not going to get anything close to £85m from anyone else.
