It seems like we're being priced out with Bale, and Griezmann either stays in Atletico or joins Barca. Explains our interest in Talisca/Arnautovic but I refuse to believe there aren't any better options out there, we need real quality now. Rock the boat for Willian/Mahrez if needed but don't settle for average due to lack of obvious options.
We have plenty can play wide type of players who are best centrally. Don't need more in draxler. He is not even a improvement.Would like to see us try to sign Draxler. Fallen out of favour at PSG, can play left side or right side
In other words, they aren't selling him.Madrid price Bale: 222m€
There's no guarantee these reports are true, just as there is no guarantee we are even actually interested in him.It seems like we're being priced out with Bale, and Griezmann either stays in Atletico or joins Barca.

We've got that to spend. We'd make our money back on sponsorship's and shirt sales alone.
I doubt we are going to pay anything for him.I'v seen plenty of different prices quoted for a player through the years, but Bale takes this to another level.
Yesterday there was a tweet that he's available for €100m. Today it's €222m. Tomorrow it's probably €150m, and on saturday he's at €240m. While at the same time, the caf values him at €60m. The meltdown will be unreal, no matter what we pay for him!
Have to be joking, not worth half of that.We've got that to spend. We'd make our money back on sponsorship's and shirt sales alone.
Did the same with Morata.As much as I'd love to see it happen if they are talking stupid figures then they can go feck themselves.
Do one, Perez. Enjoy paying his huge wages while he sits in the physio room.
Even if he was available for a more realistic £80m we should stay well away. Give me Willian any day over Bale. Or better again, Leon Baily.

That’s the problem Spurs have. Pochettino has a budget of £100m but as seen that would just about purchase Zaha and an average player. Given the fact that they are inflating the prices of the players they are willing to sell. Might be leaving it late again to sign players.
We still have a 35 mill pund buy-back clause for Depay, any chance that we utilize it? I don't think he has shown enough development to return to Manchester yet, especially as we are well stacked at left wing. However, I see an opportunity for us to use the buy-back clause to buy him for 35 mill and sell him on to Milan for 40 mill (like the Afobe to Stoke via Wolves deal). A potential problem with Lyon selling him directly to Milan is that we then no longer will have a buy-back clause for him. By buying him from Lyon and selling him on to Milan ourselves, we could include a new release clause. Or we could buy him now and loan him out to Milan, or loan him to Inter as part of a deal where Skriniar is going the other way.Apparently, Depay agreed to join Milan with reported salary of 4.5m/year and Lyon are asking for 40m him now. Feckin Depay
Zaha isn't worth near 70m so its a bit of a red herring in this case. They don't even need him, they're stock piled with talented attackers.
Yeah because bale's price has been quoted around 222m eurosAm I actually reading people wanting Willian over Bale in this thread?
Solid source you've got there!Yeah because bale's price has been quoted around 222m euros
Zaha isn’t the only player now who is quite overpriced. And clearly they’re after an attacking winger.
They’re after De Ligt, and if they were to sign him it would cost £60m+ at least so again that’s a lot of their budget gone.

I was giving the reason for why people are wanting Willian over BaleSolid source you've got there!
Willian over Talisca/Arnautovic, seems pretty sensible.Am I actually reading people wanting Willian over Bale in this thread?
