Evenin’.

The Italian media has been sniffing and quite understandably so around The Boy Bale for some time now. But when it comes to these foreign mega-bid deals I’m always sceptical. They might scan well as a headline, but history is not littered with young lads who have barely mastered their native tongue making the extraordinary leap into unknown cultures. Well, apart from Great Train Robbers.

Tonight’s news comes then from the Italian daily,  Gazzetta dello Sport who believe that Lyons’ left wing-man Michel Bastos has been subject to strong interest from our lot.

Bastos is a class act, Lille were weighed off to the tune of £18M for him. Like Bale, he’s versatile. He can cross with great ability and he’s a triffic shot on him.

Why would this happen? Well one obvious answer is that nothing lasts forever (just like they taught me that in the SAS). Another answer is ‘no it bloody well won’t as Baler’s staying forever and a day’.

Do let me know wot you fink.  Crazy Italian bar stewards or Spurs preparing for the worst?

    I would like to know, how much the buy out clause is, in Baler new contract. I still think that it will all depend on where we end up in the league this year. If we get fourth and CL then we keep most of the first team squad, if fifth or below, the rats will desert the ship.

      I agree, only I wouldn’t call them rats. They’ve only got a few years to play at the highest level, so they will go where the medals and trophies are, not to mention the dosh.

      The question for me is why have they made so much hard work of beating part time plumbers and relegation dross this season. I given up counting the number of points we’ve thrown away.

    A complete fabrication yet again by the Ities, absolute bollocks. Did Bale not very recently sign a 4.5 year extension on his current contract. Dont go likening him to Berbatov who is just a greedy two faced Eastern European who was out to get as much money as he could, threw a few strops to get his own way and buggered off to Manure as fast as possible. Some arseholes say that contracts dont mean a thing these days but if a club does not want to sell and a player does not want to go then thats the end of it. Spurs have been linked with every tom dick and harry including uncle tom cobley and all, again more media shite and the biggest advocates of this is the low life scum masquerading as professional journalists. Did Harry Redknapp or better still Daniel Levy say that they will buy Bastos as a replacement for Bale, sell him now, make a big profit and to hell with developing a great team fit to challenge for major honours throughout Europe. Where did this Itiy arsehole get this information from, the guy operating the turnstiles or the groundsman. Pure tripe. Next it will be Sandro mark my words. Piss off.

    Well we only have one left winger and one left back so adding a further player like Bastos, who interestingly played well in an am role sometimes at Lille but who has played both lw and lb would give us better options. Forget Bale leaving, he just signed a new contract and said he wanted to stay, that’s just the Italians trying to kid themselves he’ll move to Milan

  • Brycie says:

    No way the boy bale I’d for the off we need to be signing players like Bad sauce from lyon and mother sucker from a german team and the like if we want to add to our squad ! We are always concerning ourselves with who we are gonna sell when we should be looking at who we are going to bring in or on to ensure not only do we qualify for the CL next year but that when we do get in we gave a strong enough squad to cope with the demands that it obviously has week on week out if that lot up the road can do it then bring back the glory days to the lane and light it up!!!
