LondonLax Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I also thinking Liverpool would actually be better off selling Suarez. He hoggs to much attention and I think they play better as a team when he is not there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Rev Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Perez talking up Bale again, says he was "born to play in Madrid" which implies strongly that Real will go all out for Bale after missing out on Neymar. I'm still not sure how Bale and Ronaldo fit into the same team though. Bale has done a lot of good work from the right hand side this season where he has been allowed to cut inside, but that happens because the rest of the Spurs team have been willing to do his donkey work for him. He won't get that at Madrid. Great players always find a way I guess, and Bale certainly has the talent to do well at a club like Real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 It will be interesting to see how Ancelotti sets them up next season, if he goes there. I think he's a better manager than Mourinho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see Bale as a team player at all, and you certainly wouldn't be able to accommodate more than one Bale-type player into a single team. I literally cannot see how he could play in the same team as Ronaldo, who does exactly the same role at Madrid. You can't have 2 players in the same team who are given the license to wander around how & where they wish, because the structure of the whole side would fall apart.

Nigel Posted May 30, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted May 30, 2013 Isn't Aspas supposed to be a bit of a hot-head? Suarez and Aspas leading the line for Liverpool should be interesting to say the least. Think Suarez wants out.. Wouldn't surprise me if he ends up at Madrid. His agent telling Sky he is happy at Red Scouse and no plans to move....shame! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The agent who has spent the evening/morning being roundly bollocked by Liverpool's Press Officer? Of course he has no "plans" to move..... but thats the thing with plans....they change.

Rob182 Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 My mate who is a Liverpool fan reckons they are after kyriakos papadopolus. I've never really seen him, but hear he is highly rated so imagine others would also be in for him. fans i know think they are in for Benteke and Christian Eriksen A Liverpool fan I work with thinks they're getting Benteke for £9.5m!

CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Really? Better manager? Yeah. Their records aren't too different, Mourinho has a better league record though (although Ancelotti has won one at Chelski and PSG, but just the one at his time at Milan with a team that won the CL twice isn't great, although the Italian league was pretty strong until 06). However I think Ancelotti brings more to the table. Or should that be less? No bullshit, no massive ego, and no need to create a siege mentality. He just coaches his team and wins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rosenthal Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 You can put Gareth Bale out left, he'll go past players with ease and get crosses in. That's not worth 60m+ though Real Madrid pushing the boat for Bale only makes sense if they have him as long term replacement of Ronaldo in mind.

I love the oneupmanship between those 2 clubs I get the impression that's what signings are to the Spanish Big Two - just trophies. If Bale has any sense he will stay in England where he will be able to fully showcase his ability instead of being a pawn in club electoral politics.
