Tottenham Hotspur fans on Twitter have been responding to the latest comments made by Lilywhites winger Gareth Bale in regards to his future.
This comes after Spurs-focused Twitter account @thespursweb shared a post on their page relaying comments made by Bale during a recent interview (via Evening Standard) about his future at the end of the current season.
The winger, who is currently on a season-long loan deal from Real Madrid, said that the main reason he came to Spurs was to play regular football and be fit to play for his country in the European Championships.
He then added that his plan is to return to Madrid when his current deal with Spurs expires at the end of the season.
This post then gathered a lot of replies from Spurs fans who were not shy in sharing their thoughts on what Bale had to say.
So, what did these Tottenham fans have to say in response to Bale’s comments about his future?
“Don’t play him again this season”
“Wow just wow”
“Send him back now”
“Has to be a joke right?”
“This has ruined my day”
“My heart. It’s gonna be 2013 all over again seeing him leave”
Looking at the replies to this post, it seems that these Spurs fans are quite disappointed to hear Bale’s comments about him returning to his parent club when his loan deal with Tottenham expires at the end of the season.
Given how the 31-year-old, who is currently valued at £18 million, has scored 10 goals and provided three assists in the 25 appearances he’s made for the club so far this season, it’s understandable why they may be disheartened to hear that he may not be with them next year.
Would you be disappointed if Bale didn't stay at Spurs for next season?
Yes
No
In our view, given how he’s only on a season-long loan deal with Spurs, it’s hardly surprising that Bale would go back to Madrid when it ends, however, the fact that he said he’s using his time at Spurs to get fit enough to play for Wales does seem to suggest that he’s not particularly interested in how Spurs get on this season as long as he gets his fitness up.
