Gareth Bale is...The most expensive player ever?!
- Thread starter Mickey
- Start date
As much as I wanted Bale to Utd, I genuinely am shocked at the fee there.
When all the £80M talk came about I thought it was just the press pissing about trying to generate shock articles. Never did I think Madrid would actually go through with it!

A stage, catwalk, big screen, all the club legends etc.
Can't see Ronaldo in that photo, he's at the airport ain't he? It's rON.
Can't imagine that for Fellaini. Good luck to bale hope it works out for him.
As good as Bale is - this is just insane, someone needs to stop these fees. They are simply buying for buying's sake. Good luck to Bale though - for an English footballer, he seems quite nice and down-to-earth.
And after all, this transfer increased our chances of signing Ronaldo next year.

pff for him it'll be the city of Manchester at his heels.
Hope he naffs up the keepy uppies!!
If he was English.
Madrid probably think he is
Anyone watching his unveiling? What's that stupid bit of hair doing on his chin?
He'll probably end his speech with "Boutros Boutros-Ghali"
Seems very relaxed up there.
He's getting down with the Spanish way of life
Stadium looks more or less full from that picture, they have only filled the bottom tier for Bale.A stage, catwalk, big screen, all the club legends etc.
It's quite depressing despite how much they've overpaid. Just the fact they have Ronaldo Bale Isco and Di Maria in the same squad is insane. Not to mention the shrewd managerial appointment.
I didn't know Bale's daughter was called Alba Violet Bale? AVB?
Bet his former manager is calling him Judas if anything.

It was his dream to play for Real Madrid as a child?
Did he really mess up the keepy uppies?Bloody hell, banging on about how it's his real dream, and it's true because they had a picture of him in a Madrid kit as a kit.
I am sure loads of kids wear all sorts of kits when they're into footy at a young age, I still know a lad who supports Newcastle, but wears Newcastle, man utd, man city, arsenal, Chelsea shirts

fecked up his keepy uppies
He was kissing the badge.... For feck's sake
I bet you would kiss anything if you were paid 300k per week right?
IMO. Bale's got off lightly if thats the case!!
Did Ronaldo kiss the badge upon first arrival?
This is a genuine question, not expecting it to be a no.

This one will not work out. I dont see him being a success. I hope he is an abject failure if I am honest and RM sell him at half the price
Real Madrid fans are going to be so hacked off when they realise how much Bale is really worth. All good luck to the lad, but it is nigh on impossible to live up to £300,000 a week, and an £85 million price tag. Only Ronaldo and Messi live up to that, he will find it hard.
My kids didn't cos they were brought up proper.I am sure loads of kids wear all sorts of kits when they're into footy at a young age, I still know a lad who supports Newcastle, but wears Newcastle, man utd, man city, arsenal, Chelsea shirts
Bale's salary will be 300,000 a week?
Wish I was a footballer

That's what we call him around here, so...
Particularly with an unemployment rate of 25% and Spanish people strugglin to put food on their tables. However, it's not Bale's fault, so good luck to him. He's a very humble and nice chap, a professional role model.
As for Ronaldo, he'll be back at Old Trafford this time next year.
It's good press 101. Doesn't hurt Bale, many many fans will love it.
Nothing official on the fee ? Some say he's the most expensive player, some say he's the second.
Nice, that as an Arsenal supporter you can still buy your kids Manchester United kids. Top man Pete!
How ridiculous is it that he immediately has to announce that Ronaldo is still number 1.
For a week!Bale's salary will be 300,000 a week?
Wish I was a footballer
seemed incapable of doing keepy uppies at his ceremony
There's a clause in the deal that says no one is allowed to talk about the fee, I reckon it's more than what they paid for Ronaldo.
