"Tottenham ready to sell Gareth Bale for €100m plus Alvaro Morata" -

http://www.theguardian.com/football/201 ... aro-morata

The lure of Santiago Bernabeu proves really irresistible. One moment you hear Bale or club says he'll stay, the next you hear him ask Spurs listen to offers.

In my opinion, Spurs should let Bale go for that massive sum of money. Then perhaps they can buy another 2 or 3 other players at a great deal. Look at Michael Laudrup, he got Michu at a great deal, if they got great scouts, there should be players poised to become the next Bale.

If Bale doesn't shine in Madrid, like most people would say, it's his problem already. He asked for it.

Ugh.

Spurs want Luis Suarez to replace Gareth Bale.

Bayern want Suarez too but Suarez want Champions League football, which Spurs can't provide. Odds of him going to Bayern for now is @ 21 at sky and @ 2.5 to Gunners. Might place another small just-for-fun stake on this transfer. :D

I think Liverpool are waiting until the last second of the season, praying that someone from abroad comes in for Suarez, if not then they'll have to sell to Arsenal. They've already lost him really and there's no point having a 40 million pound waste of space on the books who isn't going to fight for the cause.

Agreed. While Rodgers says he'll wait for Suarez to regain his 'spirit' and rejoin Liverpool, I think Suarez has already decided. Half of him is thinking somewhere else and it's no use to keep such player because he won't perform at his peak potential. If he goes to Bayern, he'll be a very big addition to Guardiola's squad.

So it now appears that Arsene Wenger is about to make his first major signing. Luis Gustavo of Bayern Munich was rumoured to be his transfer target earlier this week. Bayern and Arsenal have already agreed a fee for him, in the region of 17 million pounds. Recently, Gustavo has responded to Arsenal's interest admitting he wants the transfer. Finally, Wenger has decided to touch his transfer kitty. lol.

I never heard of this rumor. I don't this that is likely to happen since Bayern already have Mandzukic and Pizarro - and Lewandowski from next season on. Also, Guardiola prefers a system with a "wrong" striker who acts like a midfielder - like Messi plays at Barcelona. And that wouod be Goetze... so I don't see where Suarez could possibly play. Ah, and one more thing: Since Suarez is one the most undisciplined players, that disqualifies him for Bayern.

Well rumor hasn't resurfaced since i read it from daily mail. Probably made up by some drunken writer, nonetheless i also saw it posted in another forum.

I'd really like to see where this Suarez saga ends. I think he deserves to say that he wants Champions League football.

So it appears Arsene Wenger is now turning his attention to Swansea's Michu, while rumours that Luis Gustavo will join Wolfburg continue to circulate.

Yet, even for a 'ridiculous sum', Laudrup won't sell Michu. Besides, it's already too late for them to find a replacement.

Understandably, Michu was key to Swansea's successes last season and they could pay the price if they sell him now. Laudrup has even imagined the scenario already:

"You could say we got the money, but why be the richest club in the Championship? What is that worth?"

On the same basis Southampton will be in Europe and Arsenal relegated!
