I think it will be great for Bale and EPL if Bale will comeback,United or Arsenal best place for him,In Real he is all the time in Ronaldo shadow

Sooner or later real madrid will depend on him and they are stupid to release bale. United and arsenal however wont sign him, both of that team is lacking out for striker and the rumours is that both of that team is currently trying to sign vardy. Mourinho seems to have interest on vardy as well
yeah i think manchester united will be theclosest if they tryed to sign him because they have the money for it and also the manager arsenal are little bit far for signing him if real madrid got stupid and selled him

Barcelona got a trio for their striker and if real madrid think they can win by depending solely on ronaldo then it is crazy. Manchester united need defenders, not another winger and bale will never fit on the team. They should habe just sign ramos id they want anyone from real madrid into their team

Well you said that they have been too tired in Premier League, so they couldn't focused in UCL matches. So my conclusion is Premier League is more important based on your words Grin Why didnt choose to focus UCL then?

Because they are both equally important, especially for the top clubs who have a chance to win at both.  They even have difficulty on rotating the players because of the injuries of their players due to the tough league games and the CL.  And the top club owners demand winning it all.  So it's much more difficult for a club in the much tougher EPL.

In La Liga and the rest, their league fixtures are less tough.

Quote

Thats a weird reason imo, with their great squad even for their reserved players, the manager should know how to prepare his team into every tournament. Sir Alex has proved it with their great treble winner in 1998 Wink


Alex Ferguson is the exception.  He is one of the greatest football managers that ever lived.  If not, the greatest ever in our generation.

Quote

Yeah with their good sporting director, they just finished on 7th position in La Liga Smiley


That exactly explains the fact that the easier games in La Liga don't put a lot of strain on the players when they play in European tournaments.  Tottenham had a hard time balancing its players in the EPL and Europa League because they were going for both titles.

And ending up in 7th place doesn't change the fact the Andrea Berta is a good sporting director.  It's just a sh*t club who won a European tournament who no one cares about 3 years in a row.

Quote

He did it in some friendly matches and Copa America 2015 qualification games Cheesy
Yeah with his almost zero appearance in Chelsea, its weird if he still was selected for Copa America.


As I said before...  It's his knee injury.  He hasn't been back to his 100% form since that injury last January 2014.

Snap out of it guys, for those keep saying that bale will come to old trafford, that is just lame. United need striker and defender not another winger. Bale will only be a useless player there, we still got dempay and he doesnt even got a chance to be back on the team , sooner or later he will be worthless as well
yeaaa the rumour are not from trustable source saying united in approach to sign bale.
there is so many winger own by united currently, they are not needed another one even it is bale.
and i don't think united want to spend over 100M for one player only.

Indeed it will be a wasted decision with 100 M they could get atleast two great player to be on the team. Martial cost 50 M and now he is a superstar in old trafford. Huge fund spending doesnt guarantee the club will be the champion of the league for sure so making a stupid decision like that is a waste of money
if Mourinho could make Manchester United into a strong team in the next season, maybe Martial will be a key player in strategy implementation.

No.  Now why would I say that?  Although I think they are both equally important.  All the top clubs want to win both the league and thr CL plus also their cup games.

As I told you, the tougher league games in the EPL put a strain on their players more compared to other leagues.

Sevilla has a better team built.  They have a good sporting director in Andrea Berta.  It's quite a feat what they did in winning the Europa League 3 times in a row.  But no one really cares for the Europa League though.  Grin
Yeah with their good sporting director, they just finished on 7th position in La Liga Smiley

What year and in what tournament?  As far as I know he was sidelined for the 2014 WorldCup due to the knee injury he had while he was at Monaco.  He wasn't able to get back in form at United due to that same injury, and when he went to Chelsea the following season it was the same story.

Now that he's back at Monaco, we'll see how he performs.  I hope he does well as he is one of my favorite players since his Porto days under Villas Boas.

Edit:  And he wasn't selected for Coppa America.

When Falcao moved to Manchester United , I thought he could be the next big things because he is doing really good in Atletico Madrid and Monaco
But I don't know why he didn't do well enough in English club , maybe he didn't get enough play times.Really sad that such a talented player don't shine anymore , at least for me he is super talented .
It's ironic when in 2013 he became top scorer for Monaco, and the next season in Man United, he played bad, even he was played by LvG in Reserved U-21 team. Lately, some news said he will back to Monaco, hope he will find his best performance again.
he has bad decisions with playing for Man Utd because in these team he could not played with good performance and may be this is why EPL will be difficult league for several players because they could made very much goals on their previous teams but when they move to EPL they have failed and only in reserve players

Bale is not the right player for Manchester United next season, it may be more appropriate should Manchester United buy players back and middle nice and had a vision in play.

Of course it is.  Tough league matches make the players even more tired in CL fixtures.  This is a known fact.

On Sevilla that doesn't mean it is any better than some of the EPL teams, and yes the less tough fixtures sure did help them.  Imagine if Sevilla was part of the EPL...  They would have tired players going into European competition.  

 On Falcao, he was sidelined during the World Cup because of the said knee injury.  It keeps recurring, but keeps telling the media that his new injury isn't connected with his knee but a minor muscular one.  But that's waht they all say to maintain their value in the transfer market.
In other words, you just saying that Premier League is more important than European tournament right? Grin

No.  Now why would I say that?  Although I think they are both equally important.  All the top clubs want to win both the league and thr CL plus also their cup games.

Why didnt they play better in UCL instead of Premier League, which if you can win UCL's title, so you dont need to reach big 4 to qualify next UCL?


As I told you, the tougher league games in the EPL put a strain on their players more compared to other leagues.

Quote

Well, you should know Sevila played two finals in Copa Del Rey and Europa League, even the gap between both final was short. Liverpool didnt have any other match beside Premier League at the moment.


Sevilla has a better team built.  They have a good sporting director in Andrea Berta.  It's quite a feat what they did in winning the Europa League 3 times in a row.  But no one really cares for the Europa League though.  Grin

Yeah, Falcao with his injured knee became all time top scorer for Colombia, it still amazing imo Cool

One big reason why EPL teams have a hard time getting to the semi finals in the CL is because their league games are already very tough.  Their cup games are also tough towards the end.  Top clubs from La Liga, Bundesliga, Ligue 1 and Serie A find it easier to get to the semis because they're leagues are so damn easy and relaxing for them.

Edit:  And on the topic of Falcao...  During 2014 (the same time he was with United) he appeared for Colombia only 3 times and scored only 1 goal.

I dont think the tough competition could be a reason why they played bad in European tournament, there was Sevilla as a not big team in Spain and struggling in La Liga, could won Europa League, even 3 times in a row. Sir Alex has proven that Man United could went to UCL final few times with tough competition in Premier League. So, I dont think the tough competition as the problem why Premier League team bad in UCL.

While he was a Man United player in 2014/15 season, if I'm not mistaken he has made 5 goals, even he broke the record of Arnoldo Iguarán and became the all time Colombian top scorer. Unfortunately he played bad in Copa America and his position replaced to Jackson Martinez.

clearly the proven reason why Falcao does not shine at Manchester United because the coach prefers young players and it made him only able to watch on the bench without being able to develop his talents in the field to prove that he is a great player. the best decision for him is moving from Manchester United

I don't think so.  LVG resorted to playing the younger players not by design but by necessity.  He had no choice, they had a lot of injuries.  Good thing Rashford clicked.
yeah it was just a luck for rashford it was almost all player manchester united injured but honestly he has a great talent in football.

Again, he had a serious knee injury at Monaco.  And yet he was still signed on loan by LVG at United.  That wasn't a wise move as after the knee injury, Falcao never came back in form.  And that knee injury could be recurring according to rumors.
