KFS Posted 25 July 2019 Share Posted 25 July 2019 Could be that he has right to work specifically for Man City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was immediately loaned out to Girona for a season, then when he came back he was denied a permit so they sent him back out on loan to Girona again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post FoxyJim1987 Posted 26 July 2019 Popular Post Share Posted 26 July 2019 Nothing to do with us but Gareth Bale, what a greedy ****. No regard for his career at all, no wonder Zidane wants rid. No intention of learning any Spanish and integrating himself, said he would play golf for the remaining years of his contract as he can't possibly take less than 600k a week. Now surprise surprise instead of a modest pay cut to play for bayern, man utd, spurs etc he's going to earn an even bigger fortune to flush his career down the toilet. Money in the game is getting ridiculous. Now above the superclubs is China offering crazy money, what next Dubai or the middle east starting a league it's mental and should be stopped. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it says a lot about someone who wants to live in a country, but can't be arsed to learn the language. It's just disrespectful. I don't agree about China or whoever offering silly money, though. If that's what they want to do, that's their prerogative. They shouldn't attract any players in their prime who are serious about their career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The UAE, Saudi, and the other gulf states all have fairly modest leagues compared to Europe, big wages but not on China level. Also, when did Bale say that about Golf? I swear that was just a rumour, although I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Posted 27 July 2019 Share Posted 27 July 2019 I thought the Chinese club he’s signing for also owns Inter Milan and he’ll end up there after a short cameo in China. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a bit indifferent to Bale but to be fair you cant really blame Real Madrid for being silly enough to offer a 600k a week long term contract to him. He's won everything in the club game and probably doesnt have a chance to become a club legend anywhere at this stage of his career so his last motivation is probably in international football and trying getting Wales to a World Cup. Know its not what us fans what to hear as many of us would love to be paid to play football but thats the harsh reality of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a short career and he hired his agent to make him the most money he could in that time. The world has changed and the ‘younguns’ have a different mindset. Doing something easier for more money would tempt a lot of young men in the world of work. https://www.nottinghampost.com/sport/football/football-news/nottingham-forest-almost-landed-80m-2885611 Edited 27 July 2019 by LinekersApples I’ve added totally unrelated weblink cos it’s funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it's a short career, so surely if you are a top class player who has already earned multi-millions the correct mindset should be to play at the highest level you are capable of during your peak years? He could still earn £300k+ per week at another top European club. How much money does he need? I would understand the China move if he was at the end of his career but not now. Smacks of greed and no desire to achieve playing success to me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest SO1 Posted 27 July 2019 Share Posted 27 July 2019 Standing up for Real Madrid. You can't make it up. I must be surrounded by a bunch of self entitled millionaires. They signed a contract. Pay up........... Hypocrisy at its finest. Zidine is an absolute shit house for getting involved with this. Looks like an idiot. You'd think he had more class.

Bluearmyfox28 Posted 27 July 2019 Share Posted 27 July 2019 I know my opinion might be a bit unpopular but I’m sorry if someone is offering me £52m a year I’m gone. I understand that he should want to play at a top standard but Bale has won the highest competitions at club level, so why not roll in the money. Sign a 3 year contract & you’ve made £156m that’s a stupid amount of money regardless of how much he currently earns. Yes it may be greed but why not. In other sports like boxing, NBA, American Football etc it’s all about how much money you can make in such a short period. Like I say I know it’s an unpopular opinion, but Bale has put a load of hard work to get where he is today so why not milk in the money whilst you can. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You say that but to normal football fans the whole situation is ridiculous. I mean seriously, who needs 600k a week to live? As a normal person and a football fan I'd give my left nut to play in the premier league for 50k a week, let alone some of the reported wages the likes of Sanchez and De Gea earn. To me, he has no regard for the remainder of his career. He doesn't want the challenge anymore and once that goes away you might aw well give up playing. He's earned enough in his time in Spain. I'd be coming back home and taking any contract offered to me, because let's be fair he'd be offered well in excess of 100k a week by any of the big teams in England Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxymcoxy Posted 27 July 2019 Share Posted 27 July 2019 What about this Pepe lad to Arsenal then? Can't say I've seen loads of him but first reaction is good signing altthough maybe not the most important area for them to spend that much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
