His fate was sealed this season after losing to West ham. Yesterday was final straw, playing style was unacceptable.
Rednapp could have bought Suarez but turned him down as he thought his playing style was too similar to Van Der Vaart
Bale was their talisman..any manager would of had trouble lifting the players when the star was sold. ''Clubs with ambition don't sell their best player''..that's how the remaining players would of seen it.
