5. He's Unsettled

There are few things worse in football than having an unsettled player on your books, and Gareth Bale
is unsettled. Yesterday, it was revealed the Welshman
asked for talks with Real over a potential move to the Spanish capital this summer, while in May, Bale's agent Jonathan Barnett told a Spanish television show that his client "would be honoured" to hear from Madrid president Florentino Perez. Clearly, it is the player's dream to play at the Bernabeu, and who could blame him? Regular, and more importantly,
guaranteed Champions League football each season, playing in front of a crowd of 70,000 and lining up alongside one of the world's best footballers, Cristiano Ronaldo. Any professional football player would jump at those opportunities. And if Spurs try to hang onto him, they run the risk of Bale becoming disenchanted with life in North London which could then lead to disharmony in the dressing room. And that cannot be allowed to happen.
