complaring 2 human football players from France who are both let footed wingers is like comparing 2 distinctly different species of animal?
haha what? Why would Bale going to City be better than Hazard? Bale is off to Man Utd anyway
It'll be about £45m tbf. Probably the best young attacker in the world. Him or Gotze
Oh I see, even still, he'll be leaving so it doesn't really matter who to

Yeah Spurs fan. Wouldn't want to lose Bale, there is the possibility that Bale would be on City's shopping list if they miss out on Hazard. As for Utd they don't need wingers, if they were to take anyone it would be Modric, but I would have thought both are our of their price range.

Not sure why he will be leaving? Levy set his stall last year with Modric. Bale won't be leaving this year regardless of the result tomorrow unless a massive offer comes in which only City can offer, he is under contract. I can see Levy selling Modric though, another year older and his price will only decrease from here on in. It was also clear through his performances this year he wasn't fully committed.

i didn't say he was French. but he is coming from France i.e we can compare the performances of arfa and hazard because they have both played in the same league before.
Things change though when players want to leave. Both will want to leave this summer, next summer at the absolute latest.
Once upon a time Bale and Man Utd looked a perfect match, Bale being Giggs' replacement now with City's money I'm not so sure. Plus what has Bale got once his pace has gone and he can no longer kick the ball half way up the pitch and run after it?
hope we can work something out

"I hate living in Manchester, it's a horrible place, I have to spend most my time there because I bench warm at £170k per week. What makes it worse is that with all that money I can't even buy attractive hookers as it's Manchester and I'm not like Rooney and don't like the over 55's...
Please let me come play in London, I don't want to take a pay cut though. I do really like Spurs, you're more likely to give me money and let me play. London has much more attractive women too, I just need the big wages to ensure they come back home with me."
Think that about covers it.

Oh I don't think Bale is particularly great, but as you say, I think they're a good match and I can see it happening. I doubt City will want Bale
well, unfortuanetly a lot of clubs do
So that Hazard 'rumour' was nonsense:

If there's a direct bidding war between Man Utd and Man City, City will get him.
Optimistically, I'd hope the fee is around £30m~ and he comes to United on a slightly lower wage because he isn't that bothered about money and wants to improve the biggest club side on the planet. Unfortunately, his personality suggests otherwise, so I think we'll lose out.

I can't imagine he would come to united. He has been buggering about for months now with his "I'll be in the premier league" then "I'll be in Manchester".
If he was that bothered which of the two sides he was going to I think he would have handled it a bit differently. If he doesn't care which he goes to then the wages and fee will win it for City.
I did see something strange earlier though. Can't remember who it was said that City would sell Aguero this summer but that sounds a little unlikely. City will get another striker, midfielder and defender at least but I doubt they would lose Aguero.
