There are some City fans who think that we may see Gareth Bale returning to play for some time in his career. i would suggest that, after his exploits last night, that day is still some way off yet. When and if he does arrive, is there really any chance that Ryan Shawcross will be one of his team mates? I hope not, because it seems to me that it would be one of those transfers which just wouldn’t work out for reasons other than how good or bad a player Shawcross is.
