Gareth Im new to this site but WHAT ON EARTH ARE YOU ON ABOUT ? Lets look at some facts, he's just signed a 5 year contract extension, he's very young & already the best player on the LW in the PL, his value in 2-3 yrs will be at least double his current value, now here's the BIGGY.... AS OF NEXT SEASON ALL THE TOP CLUBS PUT TOGETHER A RULE THAT STATES NO TEAM CAN COMPETE IN ANY EUROPEAN COMPETITIONS IF THEIR WAGE STRUCTURE EXCEEDS THEIR INCOME. All the financial "Big Boys" are going to sell A LOT of players so they can compete in the CL & EL, thats without any new purchases. Bale is worth at least £30M+, then add his new contract, then add to the fact Levy would've put a ridiculous "Buy Out" clause. There is the small matter he's publicly stated his Love of the Club. Sorry matey but here's here for a long while yet ! Get In !!!
