I think that's true but I personally wouldn't take only £78M. I think he is better than that and with all the bullshit from Real I'd make them pay a world record fee up front (or within a reasonable period like two years) or tell them to fuck off. But I think Levy has got this.

This is Ciprian Marica's goalscoring record. Pretty poor to be honest. The only reason for us attaining him would surely just to help settle Vlad?
I dont think we need him as Soldado, Defoe and Kane would be adaquate cover for our 4-5-1 formation.

.Not sure if anyone is with me but i will be resembling this when it comes to kick off tommorow.

The thought of losing petrifies me especially as we have signed players and will get untold stick if we lose.

To be honest if it wasnt Madrid and their madness interested I dont think £78m is justifiable for Bale.
Ronaldo cost that, when he was basically the best player around. Bale is no where near that good IMHO.
He could be, but he isnt right now.
Literally should be a "Pay up or fuck off" situation. I just hope we dont blink first and give into their shit.. But then again. It is Levy....
So. With Bale going to replace Ronaldo, and Neymar replacing Messi, are we picking up the scrap? I think we could do with someone that can fire freekicks about as good as Bale, and this Messi lad I'm hearing good things about. 
Given the level of player we are targetting this summer going for this guy would be, well, strange
My friends told me that Balzaretti is absolute *****
I wouldn't take less than £80m because a new record fee would piss Ronaldo off even more, having that twat sulking around the place will cause no end of shit for Madrid.
there's absolutely no need for him
Depends who you ask though. His stats are comparable with Ronaldo's last season in the Prem, and in my view Bale will be the better player because he scores so much from outside the box and his acceleration can't be compared with anyone else, Ronaldo included. Those facets to his game make himincredibly valuable if you want to win trophies playing against other good teams. Invaluable in my view and at his age I don't think the price is that much really. But like I say, it's all opinions; it depends who you ask.
Either way, I'd be surprised if Levy accepted less than the world record fee, unless there was some catch.
I think if we are looking to buy a striker in replacement for Adebayor then it must be a class youngster that dosen't mind playing the odd game and we can slowly build him up when say Defoe get's to old. I wouldn't be to bothered if Ade goes and we get no one to be honest but if we were to sign a striker then it should be a youngster.
