Top bombing from Roberto giving it back to Twitchy, that should unsettle his star player a little in the coming months :-D
Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini thinks Gareth Bale would be "the strongest target" for leading clubs in Europe if he was made available.
Reports in Italy claim Juventus are keen to sign the Wales winger, who has caught the eye with some sparkling performances for Tottenham this season - including a Champions League hat-trick at the San Siro against Inter Milan.
And Mancini reckons Juve would take a leap in quality if they were to prise the 21-year-old from the north London club.
He said in an interview to Turin sports newspaper Tuttosport: "Last year Bale had already proved his value but his career had not yet taken off.
"Now you would need a lot of money (to sign him). He is a very expensive player. Certainly, Juve with Bale would gain a lot.
"Moreover, what is certain is that if Tottenham decides to put him on the market, Bale would be the strongest target in the summer.
"Perhaps he (Bale) is the only player who is not a striker that can make a difference. Without him, Tottenham loses 50% of their potential."
Bale's contract at White Hart Lane runs to 2014 and Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy last month assured fans the club had no intention of selling him.

But Tottenham boss Redknapp dismissed any such notion about cashing in on winger Bale, saying: “I don’t know why Roberto would talk about Gareth. It’s great to have him here and long may he stay at Tottenham.
“I don’t see any way he’d be looking to move, he doesn’t want to move and we don’t want to sell him. If you are building a football club you don’t sell young players like Gareth Bale, so he’s here to stay hopefully.”
Hahahahahahahahaha!
Hypocritical cunt!

Good headline MRM. I thought the same when I heard it. Mind you I think it was just some Italian journo asking him what he thought of Bale and would he be good at (pennyless) Juve.
Still good effect though.
