Title: Bale to Spurs? Post by: Acidmouse on May 23, 2007, 02:52:31 PM He's having a medical. For a reported £10m, is that the best club he can go to? :P

Post by: Colchester Kev on May 23, 2007, 03:19:00 PM 17 years old, unproven in top flight football, 10 million seems a lot of money, plus he is welsh ;)
But im sure he can see that the future is bright at Spurs and he is making the right decision :) I also hear that Terry Henry is leaving goonsville and going to barca. lets hope so. Title: Re: Bale to Spurs? Post by: scotty2hatty on May 23, 2007, 03:23:30 PM Absolutely ridiculous price imo.
Title: Re: Bale to Spurs? Post by: matt674 on May 23, 2007, 03:27:19 PM think you misread the headline - it actually read "spurs to bale", realizing that the only way is down next season they are quitting the premiership.........
Title: Re: Bale to Spurs? Post by: TightEnd on May 23, 2007, 03:28:23 PM Absolutely ridiculous price imo. i am not sure I agree. Yes young English talent is overpriced in general...but to compete with the top 4 Spurs have to compete with the prices they are prpared to pay.. Title: Re: Bale to Spurs?

Post by: TightEnd on May 23, 2007, 03:35:03 PM British talent then
Notwithstanding the fact he is Welsh...if he develops into a consistent Premiership player (and most judges rate him that highly), a fixture on the team sheet, in 3 years time you'll be saying "£10m turned out to be cheap didn't it?" for those types of players you pay over the odds at this sort of age Title: Re: Bale to Spurs?

Yes young English talent is overpriced in general...but to compete with the top 4 Spurs have to compete with the prices they are prpared to pay.. But is he really the best left back they could have signed for that price? What about Leighton Baines? Title: Re: Bale to Spurs? Post by: Colchester Kev on May 23, 2007, 03:41:08 PM I agree with Tighty, 10 million is an investment into Bales future, if he is as good as he is heralded, and he continues to progress as a player, then 10 million would be chicken feed... get them young, tie up a long contract and reap the rewards in a few years.
Title: Re: Bale to Spurs? Post by: TightEnd on May 23, 2007, 03:41:39 PM what about him?
With the likes of Huddlestone, Dawson in particular Jol has shown himself to be a good judge of young talent I don't think we need to second guess him Not sure quite when I turned into a Spurs apologee, but anyway! Title: Re: Bale to Spurs? Post by: 77dave on May 23, 2007, 03:44:24 PM not to mention arron lennon
Title: Re: Bale to Spurs? Post by: bigalhx1 on May 23, 2007, 05:21:57 PM we have not had a overpriced flop at the lane since mutely became manger infact nothing but player prices going up so catch the pigeon mutely and bring him to the lane

Title: Re: Bale to Spurs? Post by: The Baron on May 23, 2007, 06:42:38 PM 10m is still over priced - young or not. Kaka went to AC Milan for 5m when he was a similar age!
Title: Re: Bale to Spurs? Post by: Ironside on May 23, 2007, 06:47:23 PM all rumour i am afraid
