80m is ridiculous money. 80m was the amount they spent to buy Ronaldo isnt it? but Ronaldo seems much more worth it compared to Bale. Much of Bale's game is based on speed. If I was Levy(I am not a JEW!) but this is a good opportunity to sell.
Hopefully Jose can tell him on where he needs to work on and he really goes ahead to work on it. or simply he can just go on loan get a good manager who can guide him.
will chelsea even sell to a local rival club? i doubt so. whats more Spurs had defoe and adebayor. they weren't looking for a striker in sturridge's mould.
I think poor development actually stalled his career. The move to Swansea was terrible. Then to Middlesbrough where he got game time, but the team was playing badly.
Boateng and Ramires are 2 different players imo. Boatening is more like a no.10 eh? I prefer we look for another player similiar in Ramires mould, high work rate and stamina.
