Why can't Real Madrid fans admit Bale was second choice for Real Madrid?

They intended to get Neymar, couldn't, and bought Bale for double the price of what Barca paid for Neymar.

Not to mention, the head of Real Madrid med team said Bale would be 120% fit for El Clasico, I didn't see that 120% today...

    EDIT 3 - Omg, you're still going. *Sigh*

    1. I didn't ask you if Bale was better than Neymar, I asked you if you still think Bale was a 'phenomenal buy', given his price.

    2. Bale did have a preseason. Carlo Ancelotti himself said they WILL get the best out of Gareth Bale after the two weeks of training. I used Neymar as an example to prove my previous point. Sure people react differently, but you cannot deny what Ancelotti HIMSELF said. Not to mention, the head of Real Madrid medical team said Bale would be 120% fit for El Clásico.

    3. Still, Carlo Ancelotti himself said they WILL get the best out of Gareth Bale after the two weeks of training, and the head of the Real Madrid medical team said Bale would be 120% fit for the El Clásico. Neymar has had more health problems than Bale, and their situation was similar. I used Neymar as an example to prove my previous point, since you obviously couldn't comprehend what I wrote. Even after what Ancelotti said, Bale's performances in games have no better than average.

    4. Well obviously. You're reinstating what I've been saying since the first day he signed for Real Madrid. It was only recently that Real Madrid fans started agreeing with me that a world class striker was needed, only because his performance in games has been average. Real Madrid fans are very fickle after all.

    5. Again, for the second time, Carlo Ancelotti himself said they WILL get the best out of Gareth Bale after the two weeks of training. Unless you're going to make more pitiful excuses, and claim you know more than the manager. Bale has been subbed off during games because his performance has average, he's one dimensional and didn't have any impact in the matches he started.

    6. You're just reinstating again what I've been saying since the first day he signed for Real Madrid. I said he MIGHT end up being an expensive flop like Kaká was. Although I could be wrong, his current situation proves me right otherwise.

    Just because I didn't reply to you straight it doesn't mean you've 'won' the victory, lol. Only an ignorant fool, would think that like that. Obviously I don't spend my whole day on this site, I have a work life, a family and a social life as well. Oh, but look who I'm telling. All you've done is repeat yourself, state the obvious, as well as state and prove my previous points. You say that everything I just wrote was idiotic manure, but you couldn't even directly answer them. Instead you talk down everything I wrote as a defensive mechanism, because you no real arguments to counter them with. Whereas, I have countered all your arguments multiple times.

    Please don't bother replying to me since you have nothing relevant to argue. My answer is already reaching its limit, I even had to delete my previous edits, as I keep countering and exposing the flaws in your arguments, so don't except a reply from me after this one.

    Better luck next time though: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=gES-g7UrNPU :)

    Another president should take control of Real Madrid that CARE about the team performance not business, why buy Bale with 100m while you got Di Maria and JESE, the best young talent.

    I don't think it even matters whether he was second or first, a striker was always needed in his place.

    To be fair, he needs more time to adjust, he had no pre season and needs to be given more time to prove himself.

    @Vhalin -- How about you stop being so disgracefully biased and realize it takes time to adjust to a new league and team (more than a few games). I admit he was average at best today but its not fair to judge as of yet. Why dont you focus on the question and stop obsessing over strangers or have you nothing better in your life to do?

    How amusing. Once again you are incapable of having a civilized discussion without insulting someone, which is pathetic. Your points are all obvious. I (and everyone else) have stated several times that Bale was not worth all that money, a striker was needed first before Bale (as previously stated). Neymar adjusted quicker, had more pre season training, played superb yesterday. I stated that as well. So you made zero proper counter arguments, stated the obvious and you think you have won anything? Please stop replying to my answers as you never make any valid points and lose every time. Keep begging for best answer as that makes you feel as if you won, correct? How pitiful.

    @@You have countered absolutely nothing. You first insulted me, i believe you also deleted that comment, so i simply pointed out that you have nothing else to do but respond to my comments, as this is not the first. I was not insulting you but your actions. You need to know the difference.

    After they sold Higuaín, i thought a new striker was needed. Until recently has this been unboundedly clear with Benz horrible form. I did say Bale would be a phenomenal buy (and he still may be over time) and he was not needed but still a good buy and potentially a phenomenal buy.

    Lets set a few things clear hear so you can specifically argue the points because you have this thought that you are saying meaningful things when your actually spewing manure.

    1)At the end of the last season, Bale was better than Neymar. (that link was in the past and therefore shows how things in the past where so that link is idiotic for current events as Neymar is currently a better performer that Bale according to the Classico) Obviously over time someone may get better than the other.

    2)Bale has had no pre season and this effected his performance. (Neymar arguably may of been in a similar situation but his actions DO NOT effect Bale. All people react to a situation differently so i dont know why you would mention Neymar in the first place)

    3)Bale has recently come back from another injury (So has Neymar with a health problem but once again his actions are not related to Bale and they reacted differently)

    4)Bale was not worth that money

    5)Most importantly it takes time for someone to adjust to a new league and team. 6 appearances is DEFIANTLY not enough time, especially when he never played over 60 min each match.

    6)He may end up to be another "Kaka" but you cannot tell as of now with all the points presented above.

    Go ahead and direct your arguments now in a civilized manner & stop spewing manure.

    Last Edit@@

    1)You presented the link to a question from a while ago mocking Madrid fans that Bale was better than Neymar, and at the time he was so your response to #1 is idiotic.

    2) Bale had 1 or 2 pre season matches with Spurs and 0 for Madrid. He had little to no pre season. Its pathetic how you cannot understand that players respond to injuries differently (especially when they had different conditions). Comparing Neymar to Bale fitness wise is idiotic and irreverent because they are different people.

    3) Are you serious? Realistically Bale would of not been at his best despite what the manager says. (he was obviously wrong) That was clearly shown as well during the match.

    4) You agreed with me.

    5)Once again, Realistically Bale was and is not at his best. The performance proved the manager wrong, its pitiful that i have to point that out.

    6) Pay attention here as this is where you prove yourself WRONG. You did NOT say he might be a Kaka or flop. You said HE IS a kaka and a flop. You did not mention in any form or possibility that you may be wrong, you said it as it was fact. THAT IS MY ENTIRE POINT. My entire point is to say he MAY not be a flop and as i initially said he needs to be given time to prove himself. Its HILARIOUS that in the end you agree with me and wrote all that to get to my point. I will end it here because you have this completely foolish thought that everything you wrote is fact and correct. Either way, you proved my point and good try & I wont reply anymore as well.
