Benitez is someone I actually wanted us to sign! Very sad news. http://www1.skysports.com/football/...ingham-striker-christian-benitez-dies-aged-27
Apparently Soldado is signing Diploma's for kids in Valencia tomorrow morning. - And supposedly that will be his last appearance as a Valencia player. Also, Adam Suter, who gets a fair bit of stick on here, but has called a lot correctly, is still adamant that Bale is signing a new deal. He's been going on about the fact that he'd be offered a new deal for months and despite the recent speculation, is still saying it will still happen. Thats a big call. He's not made himself look like an idiot yet. If he's wrong, he's going to be facing an absolute grilling on twitter. - At least the DV stuff was an overnight change of mind from Villa himself, where we'd genuinely agreed a deal. However, I wouldn't want to be in his shoes if Bale ends up leaving! abuse.com !!
He certainly looks to be out on a limb here. Of course, if you do make a prediction, even if it looks likely you're wrong, it's probably best to stick to your guns. You may be right after all, you won't be a waffler, and, if worst comes to worst, you won't be wrong twice.
Don't know if this is anything - I don't really think so but the more you know... Got an email from EA today about FIFA 14 - promoting the limited and collector's editions (OT - who does that for a football game?!) Only Messi is on the cover of the limited and collector's edition - Bale is nowhere to be seen. There were a couple of pictures of the regular cover which Bale is on of course but nothing on the limited and collectors.
How could he even know that? At best he's just taking a punt based on the info he's heard. I wasn't aware of any particular ITK getting a rough ride on here. I might not believe much of it but it keeps me entertained through the summer.
Suter annoys me - if he was so confident then he'd make his profile public. There's better ITK's around than him I think.
he knows someone who works for the club. A bit like us with Spurcat. I may have exaggerated, but the minute anyone says twitter ITK, everyone thinks "yeah yeah yeah". LOL. - that's what i was getting at
it used to be. But he got loads of abuse when something changed. I don't get it though... if any of the twitters aren't ITK, why bother spouting the bullshit? You only get abuse. it's just not worth it. Therefore what he says must be true, or certainly truthful based on what he's heard. why would you put yourself in a position where you face relentless abuse? No one wants to have that. surely he trusts who he gets the info from and passes it on to let other fans know?
Ah I think ITK's start to get unstuck when they use what they've heard to form their own opinion, like in this case. Bale hasn't signed a new contract but he's taken the positive news he's heard on it and, instead of just relaying that, decided that he will sign a new contract when perhaps even Bale doesn't know that.
Punt at best I would say just in case. Why would EA have insider knowledge whatsoever on such a confidential matter?
They might get better updates because the game is due out soon and binning all those printed covers would cost EA (who are renowned to love a bit of profit).
Di Maria and Coentrao? Who certainly don't want to come here, and might just concentrate on avoiding injuries? No thanks. We shouldn't let Bale go this year, because we'd be reneging on commitments to a wide variety of backers. Aside from that, when and if we do let him go, cash only, (unless, as in the case of VDV, we get someone who really wants to come here.)
Unless they are paying Spurs a lot of money for that info I do t see why Spurs would tell them. And it's Spurs that would have to, they have the power to accept/reject the transfer. More hearsay but more my way I believe it will go down: http://www.standard.co.uk/sport/foo...eal-madrid-8736625.html?origin=internalSearch
It looks more and more like Bales agent has been feeding the media in order to maximise his clients and his own income. Estate Agents, Football Agents, Secret Agents we do not love you. The grit in life's vaseline, as we all slide down the razor blade of life. Ugh!
