Tottenham never sent Bale out on loan. He came through the youth system at Southampton and was tearing the championship apart at 17 years old, he's also already made his international debut at 17. Tottenham paid £10m for him in the end. Yes he developed massively in the last 2-3 seasons but he didn't real come from nowhere.
Roberto Carlos had already been called up to the Brazil national side at 19 years old.
Cyrus is already 22 and has neither teared up league one let alone the championship yet.
Has Cyrus really supplied wilson's crosses? Just 4 assists in 32 league one games? Compare that to bales first season aged 17 with Southampton in the championship - 39 apps, 5 goals and 8 assists. Blair Adams has 1 more assist than christie.
And if Man U get Shaw (left back), Christie can do a job there?????
