Summer 2013: Villa Transfers, Speculation, Suggestions and Rumours

[PeterWithesShin]

So, according to the press Madrid have offered anything from £51m to £86m. And Bale is desperate to leave. While it's a lot of money, I still can't help having a little chuckle at Mr Levy. Karma is a bitch isn't it.

[Mortimer's Bear]

He's cleary going to leave so they'd be better doing the deal now giving them maximum time to reinvest the money.

[Dante Lavelli]

The ronaldo to Man U, bale to Madrid is still my hunch of what will happen, even if my logic seems flawed to the masses.

Although I think there's a game of "who blinks first" going on which may mean no one moves involving arsenal, Madrid, spurs, Liverpool, Man U. I still fear that once someone's cash is injected into the football economy that there could be a big bid for benteke.

[Mazrim]

I can't see Ronaldo wanting to play for Moyes to be honest.

 I can't see Benteke going until next summer, more likely the summer after that.He will have proved himself by then, and be worth , hopefully for us, worth more than what Spuds offered.

 Agree Mazrim, Moyes has got to prove himself this year, can't see a player as big a name as Ronaldo going there yet, they could finish outside the top 2 this season.

I saw a headline shouting 95m on the back of one of today's papers.

Who we don't want to sell and doesn't want to leave.

Ronaldo is not coming to play he will be coming to perform, carry out his final act at the theatre of (ok I can't say it but you know). Moyse is just a prop in his show as are the rest of the cast!

[Mazrim]

Or he'll stay put at the biggest club in the world, or go to Bayern.

I didn't say we'd sell him, but I could see a situation where Liverpool suddenly have say £50m to burn and a desperate beed for a striker. In which a case a £30m bid may not be so ludicrous.

Purely guesswork on my part and I'd hope we'd reject any bid at this stage anyway.

Liverpool wouldn't be daft enough to put in a bid as they know they would have zero chance of getting him.

Why would they have zero chance of getting him............

Wouldn't last a week in Germany.

Because they are shit, it isn't 1985 anymore, and he doesn't want to play for a Scandinavian club.

[Villafirst]

But Ronaldo is twice the player Bale is so I don't see why that's a good move for Real.
If they put Ronaldo and Bale behind or either side of a top striker.... awesome.

No way Ronaldo twice the player Bale is....In fact, I think Bale is the better player now. Mind you, Tottenham are asking anything up to £100M now, which makes our own Christian Benteke worth £150M!!!
