As a Welshman, seeing Bale in a Villa shirt would initially be the greatest thing to ever happen ever.

Nothing tangibly good would actually come of it though. He'd score a few wondergoals off the bench but would barely ever be fit and then my love for him would be tainted by the fact that Villa fans held him in negative regard.

Absolutely not on Bale. If Spurs couldn’t get him to give a fuck then we’re not achieving it. He’s a part time player now and is only interested in playing for Wales and making sure nothing happens between now and the World Cup. If anyone thinks he’s going to go the extra mile they are deluded. And that’s before he wraps himself in cotton wool two months before the WC to avoid any injuries. That or he get “a knock” in September that keeps him out until November only for him to miraculously come back, fully fit in Qatar.

After scoring those goals for Madrid v Liverpool in that CL final, it should have been the trigger for Bale to go on and prove Zidane wrong elsewhere. I can't really understand why he effectively gave up as a top level footballer instead.

All he wants is to stay fit for the WC. He won't be motivated and will prob retire when Walws get knocked out. His wages will be sill too.

His tantric abilities, now waning as he is only human but were apparently rampant for a good 20+ years by all accounts.

Has your mind gone blank regarding Regatta being our new training gear providers?

Any opinion on Divock Origi? Being allowed to go  so could he solve our upfront problem?

Appears Liverpool are replacing Origi with Darwin but as ADVF says I believe he's off to Milan thankfully.

I have a bad feeling about this.
