Cajun Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 £6 million rising to £10 million Thats some kerching!! Not really ... It's an excellent investment when you think about it. At only 17 years old and already a first team player every week for club and country. Also physically mature so will not struggle in that regard. Can't knock them. It's a good move for them. I think Baines is more appropriate for us though as we need someone who is more experienced due to the tatters our defence is currently in. Well it is.

Guest kingdawson Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 southampton deny a deal has been agreed. Well done Sky Sports. Aaaaahhh! That would be Freddy putting in that last minute bid after Spurs have done all the hard work and scouted the player for us. Works everytime. Suckers! wouldnt be suprised tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest smoggeordie Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Beeb Southampton defender Gareth Bale is exected to have a medical at Tottenham on Wednesday after the two clubs agreed a fee, reports BBC Radio Wales. Saints boss George Burley earlier denied reports a fee had been agreed between the two clubs. But sources close to the 17-year-old expect him to sign within days. Spurs had a bid of about £10m accepted by Saints in January, but Welsh international Bale rejected the chance to move to White Hart Lane. The teenager has only one year left on his contract and was also linked with moves to Arsenal and Manchester United. More soon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

junkhead Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Bale is very attacking minded, he won't have any trouble playing as a winger.. he's already doing the playmaker thing from the left back at Southampton.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Knightrider Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Has anyone actually seen him play much? Not seen much of him myself but what I have seen of him I don't see why all the fuss, not saying he's a bad player or anything, he just doesn't stand out as some wonderkid which to splash all that money on you'd expect him to be, or one in the making anyway. Big gamble for any club IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Bale is quality. Seen him a lot for Southampton. The best thing about him is that he plays with so much maturity. You tend to forget you are watching a 17 year old. Physically strong too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that meet your requirements? How many times do you have to see someone before you can judge them. What do you mean it won't leave me with enough time to see anyone else? Goodness grief ...

Cajun Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 £6m rising to £10m for a 17 year old centre back who is "proven" in the championship is crazy money tbh! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't said anything ridiculous have I? I haven't said he is a world beater or anything rmotely close to that. He does have a good build and doesn't look like your typical 17yr old tweener. And he does have a cool head on his shoulders and is very assured of himself in the way he plays, which is why I have said he is mature. Neither of these is a ridiculous claim I don't think!

James Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Southampton are losing £12m a year, and are auctioning off their best players. Bale will go, even if the highest bid is £3m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
