At the risk of sounding like a stuck record, Mourinho may believe that Bale trusts him, however, does José trust Gareth? From what was let slip by the gaffer, the notion that the 31-year-old’s minutes are being managed is somewhat of an understatement.
Please don’t get me wrong, I want Bale to succeed, but fans need to know that an extension of the loan is potentially a very high-risk deal. Shouting ‘Bale is back’ is a very cosmetic approach to life.
What’s the stress all about re bales wages? Exactly. £850k a month bales on roughly. I don’t know about bonuses
The new lane will never become a white elephant. It’s a money making machine. Don’t worry ENIC won’t be nicking any of it.
Big big dough gonna make there.
We can pay good wages now. Why do you want our wage bill to be higher than arsenal’s?
We will be “doing. As I’ve said “we’re doing very well. Not even two years in. I don’t care about the other 20.
Exactly. Never have done so why bother mention them? Tottenham are independent. We don’t need ENIC money anyway.
Less wages and above them. Brilliant work.
ENIC are not troubled because they never stretch themselves or indeed use a penny of their own money.
The proof will be in the doing, not the talking. Been a lot of talking for 22 years.
So what’s all the stress with people about Bale’s wages all about then? With Bale we still pay about 50m a year less on wages than that lot down the Seven Sisters Road ffs…
What have we won since birkenshaw? One FA cup under el Tel I believe. We were broke
13 managers with no money to back them (you know this) we couldn’t complete with the oil money people. (You know this too) we were building a stadium (you know this too) domestic cups weren’t a priority as in no money in’m you know this too. Levy went about it his way (you know this too) we’ll make up for them years.
The club is being run correctly and it Will achieve what the fans crave. Be patient. We’re not long in.
With some respect. You want José to fail. That way you won’t look silly. José won’t fail.
We’re lucky to have him
With all due respect I cannot understand how you can say your first sentence. Gareth is massive at Hotspur way. He lifted the whole place. He’ll score 15_20 Goals this season. Fantastic signing
I enjoy reading Cush’s stuff. Cush knows the game
When Gareth scores the amount I expect him to score his wages will prove to be cheap. He’s gonna score some important goals.
The debt repayment is not a problem. Finding Haringey councils £110k a day ain’t a problem either
Tottenham are not troubled.
Harry Kane is still the highest paid player at the club. Not bale. Trust me I know
We are doing well at the new lane. Very well. It’s coming together. C19 put us back a bit (same as everyone else) but we’re doing very well. Glory is not far away.
I will only make my point now, I won’t be drawn into anything other than arguing or discussing the actual points.
If anyone wants to start slagging people of they don’t even know on a personal level then they’re on their own, sitting on their own little cloud in the infinite void that is cyberspace!
Thank you.
About two years and we aren’t even in the Champions League when we were in it without even having a home ground for two whole seasons!
An upturn needs to happen soon otherwise the new place will become more of a white elephant, unless it’s backed up on the pitch…
Ok. Sorry man. I respect you.
22, to be precise…
Of course they will, if he club is being run correctly by the owners and achieving what the fans crave then who’s going to be moaning? That’s the actual point of ‘moaning’ it in the first place, expecting better!
Dear oh dear…
All of that would make sense if people were actually slagging the club off, have never seen that on here, but then again I am able to comprehend logical thought.
It’s the owners that get it in the neck when things that are obviously linked to spending on the team and choices made at board level are holding the team back.
These people hold a controlling percentage of the club’s shares, they are not the club and there is no sane reason why anybody would jump to the defence of an investment company. None at all.
Pretending people are slagging off the club might give you some ammunition to use against others but pretending is all it is.
The owners are not the club and should be criticised like any other faceless group of shareholders, when it becomes appropriate…
Yes but none of this financial anxiety would trouble any of the other wealthiest clubs in the world.
It’s only in ‘Levy Land” that all of this becomes a ‘worry’. Not as much to stuff under the mattress, before of course making the monthly debt repayments on 1bn!
Tell Klopp that after attacking their way to the Premiership and Champions League one after the other…
Like your ‘insightful’ trashing of clearly talented players like Tangy and Gio just because they’re having fitness issues.
Very insightful indeed that is…
Back that up, when have I been hypocritical? I’ll await a sensible response but I won’t hold my breath…
I have never belittled the club, total bo**ocks and you know it.
I want the club to go places and I am within my rights to say if I don’t think our owners are ambitious enough on the pitch.
13 mangers, 22 years and one League Cup (13 years ago) sees me about right dunnit.
ENIC cheques still landing on your doormat every month are they?
Correct.
Tappa – Enough – or you leave and you do not come back.
Squabbling like hens in a coop.
The point is, and I’m sure HH will agree, is that it’s taken 6 months – that is to say 6 million quid for our portion of his wages – for the lad to be properly considered as a PL regular.
It’s obvious what he brings when he’s on form, but this is like a trip to the bookies. You have to look at what he can potentially contribute and ask if it’s worth that financial outlay. Then assess the risk; what happens if we keep him next season and we’re stuck paying out that cabbage for a crock?
Gareth is not a normal situation. He belongs to Madrid, he’s chronically injury prone, and his wages are outrageous. A quid is a profit if we sell Kane. We can’t sell Bale.
And as facts seems to be something you choose not to see. I said bully boy tactics. I didn’t accuse you of bullying. You chose to read it that way. So perhaps learn to read properly before opening your mouth.
What did I say that wasn’t fact ? Or rubbish as you put it ?
I ain’t bullying anyone. I’m just bored of your rubbish. “Bullying” grow up
20 years at the new lane?
Not sure how stating that GB & HK are injury prone is slating or belittling the club. It’s a statement of fact. An inconvenient fact to you maybe, but it is a fact.
You seem to think it’s ok to come on the thread and be obnoxious to people. 🤷🏻♂️ Well your bully boy tactics won’t work with me. I’m as entitled to an opinion as are you or any other contributor to the thread. It’s an opinion it’s not personal. Get over yourself.
20 years and counting …..
Bore off ….
“The pain”… 6 goals in 6 games, finally showing form, linking up with Kane beautifully, running past people. Helping us get our biggest wins of the prem season so far. Didn’t you like his goals?… If he was fragile he wouldn’t be playing. Burnley are physical, they have a few bruisers, he ran riot man.
Sir Alex.. “Attack wins you games, defence wins you titles”
Alot of moaning and repetition.. Very rarely insightful..
😆 Says the hypocritical parrot.
The moaners, naysayers, pessimistic ones will vanish when we click into gear.. Stand that ground brother 🐓
I say judge the lad at the end of the season. If he plays alot, plays well, helps us win the double AND get top four.. I would assume he would have to take a huge pay cut too.
You lot support each other more than you do tottenham. Jokers.
If your opinion means belittling my club then yes
For all. I don’t wanna be in your cliques. I’m gonna stand firm alone and put you all in your places when I think you’re belittling my club. I’ve gotta be careful though coz the guvna might run me off. All your little snide smart ar$e comments about my club I’ll back her. My club means more to me than any of you lot. Slate my club you slate me. My clubs on her way to greatness. You mugs just can’t see it.
So does anyone with an opinion different to yours, it seems.
I chat sh*t …( pot kettle!) so tell me brains, Have GB and HK not had careers dogged with injury ? Do we not, in HK’s case get to Xmas and wonder when the inevitable injury will occur. Same when GB was here first time round. He had a regular hamstring injury that kept him sidelined. He had a fair few injury’s at Real too.
If you think that’s chatting sh*t then clearly your comment (s) as usual are to stir a row. You won’t get one out of me. Go pick on someone else. East Stand normally bests you, perhaps go try your luck there again.
Defensive set up? Once Joses teams can defend properly they can attack all day long. Fck sake!!!!!!!!
Oh ! Here he is. The resident hard man has his useful and insightful contribution to the conversation.
Thanks for your input !
Not as Fragile as you are as a fan. Notice I didn’t say supporter.
Personally I’d let someone else have the pain of having him. We can all see how good he is but at the same time we can all see how fragile he is.
He’s always been on the ‘At risk’ register when it comes to injury. No different to one of our own. It’s always been a case of not if but when !
What Bale produces in 45 mins is enough, then Mourinho can resort to his favoured defensive set up without him. Hell of a tough month ahead with international matches on top, every player will be needed.
It will be a loan, then he’s a free agent to get a nice signing on fee and wage offset by the signing on fee
Minutes in a game , with the right rest/preparation Must be getting him back to a level – albeit not the young version of Bale . That aside players like bale have to adapt their game as they get older (players that rely on pace)he still has so much quality on the ball.
cant help but think Levy will use this season and his condition to potentially get him next year at a further reduced wage.
Madrid/ Bale have 1 year left – which neither wants(apart from bale wanting the cash- who wouldn’t ). I don’t think Bale wants to be anywhere else than Spurs .
what do we reckon the outcome will be ?
