I really want him more than Pogba imo. Pogba would definitely improve our midfield and allow us to boss big teams, but I don't think it will solve our problems of killing Flat Track teams, which is the most important thing in winning the title. I'd rather get a good CM cover for Cesc like Schnieiderlin etc.

 

If we add Bale, these Flat track teams couldn't double mark Hazard, if they do they'd get ripped apart by Bale on the other side. I hope we get him...

 

I agree, i am also not sure that Pogba is as amazing as people are making out. He's a good player but i am yet to see him have a brilliant game. I don't think spending £60 million on him would be wise. I would much rather have Bale.

I'd take Bale over just about anyone else mentioned for us.

Pogba is class but he's still learning his trade while for me Bale is the finished article and plays in a position we flatter to deceive in.

Yeah me too. Bale is absolute class player who can decide games by himself. Pogba is very good, but for me he simply dorsnt have the same impact

Bale is a class player individually, but his team play has been shown to be lacking somewhat at Madrid, which is one of the reasons he hasn't been able to win the fans' support. He's a monster in a counter attacking set up and he'll put up good numbers in any team and set up, but would he really be a worth 75 million for us? Especially if it means we cannot make a top signing in midfield. I'm not quite sure.

Nothing to do with his team play at all, they're annoyed with him cause he doesn't get Ronaldo numbers, it comes down to how much they paid for him. The only time they have gotten annoyed is when he hasn't passed to Ronaldo, no one else.

No point going for Bale unless we sell a ton of players we currently have

Why?

If anything our squad currently lacks depth, last thing we need is to be trimming the squad size.

We could easily buy Bale without needing anyone to leave.

The Sun sh*t stirring saying Madrid may offer Bale in straight Swap For Hazard, as Madrid Definitely want Hazard as a 'Galactico' this summer, I say f**k right off!!!!!!!

Hazard had said he doesn't want to leave, José doesn't want him to leave, the board don't want to lose him and Bale would cost more per week. I say f**k off Real!!

why would they sell a RW to accommodate hazard (not a RW)? surely they should sell ronaldo. 

Haz is going nowhere, I honestly think it's all Paper Talk. I can see them trying to stir the fires cause they want Chelsea to lose their best player.

If some of the more quality press is accurate Bale does not like living in Spain, that must have an effect, I'd quite like him. The Hazard thing is the Sun being the Sun.

I was thinking that hazard would more suit the barcelona team with the way he plays. I don't want to see him leave, but could you imagine the front 3 of: 

 

Neymar   Suarez   Messi

           

              Hazard

 

Holy sh*t, what offensive front line that would be. 

 

Unfortunately, this is the reason the Spain are dominating in Europe. You cannot keep hold of your very best player/s for more than 5 seasons (at maximum) before the big boys in Spain come sniffing, and the player/s want to leave.

Can't see us swapping Eden Hazard for Gareth Bale.

 

Papers will run this story into the ground over the summer though, they're desperate for us to lose our best player.

We should give them what they want....

 

 

Mikel of course, I heard they want him.

 

Bale for Mikel. Good Business

You're forgetting Ramires lad.

Gary neville believes sign bale would make us strong favourites for next years title.

Just cannot see us matching a 100mill bud from city or United though.

I'm curious to know what everyone thinks is Bale's most effective position. Would I be right in saying he wasn't playing right wing much in his best season for Tottenham?

Central/Left I believe. I think we should have a very large transfer kitty this summer, considering we already made quite a good profit this season including the sales of Romelu, Schurrle etc, plus PL winners money etc. 

 

So if he's available, I think we should go all out on him. He'll make us a European force, as like Bayern and co. Although we'd still need a quality midfielder as well.

 

Bale and Hazard on either wings will be devastating as much as Robben and Ribery.

I heard one of those supposed 'insiders' sat near me at SB on Sunday. He said the usual 'Bale is coming next summer mate..' to the guy next to him. 'I can't tell you how I know, but it's a done deal, bet your house on it.'

 

Needless to say I took this unexpected insight with a ridiculously large pinch of salt!

Was it Star?

Is it coming?

Lets hope Juventus knock them out of CL and Barcelona win the league, then they would probably sell half their team :P

Would rather Isco

I just don't see why Madrid would let him go and in truth despite being able to afford the fee I just don't see Chelsea paying £60m+ for any one player.
