<START> Gareth Bale £86m transfer to Real Madrid inevitable, says manager Andre Villas-Boas It's a position they chose to take. It's up to the club now to decide if it's a fineable offence. He added: "Obviously, he's involved in a big transfer move to Real Madrid. If it happens, we wish him all the best. What he left here is great memories. What's happening is a dream move for him. There will be a three-way agreement for the player to go and Tottenham will accept, most likely, the biggest transfer in world football. In the end, if Tottenham accept it and everything goes all right, it will be end of story. Spurs are thought to be angry at Real's conduct over the transfer, which has included erecting a stage to present Bale before the move has been finalised and offering shirts for sale with the player's name on. Villas-Boas said: "They can do whatever they want. Whether it's responsible or irresponsible, I don't care. The Spurs manager denied "dragging out" the Bale deal while the club hunt for replacements. "You wouldn't expect the biggest transfer in world football to happen easily," he said. Whenever they get to an agreement, end of story. Villas-Boas insisted the move was independent of further signings at White Hart Lane, which should include Erik Lamela, who is expected to join from Roma for a club record £26 million plus add ons, and Vlad Chiriches from Steaua Bucharest. Tottenham were also said to have made a £7 million bid for Ajax winger Christian Eriksen. Villas-Boas said: "I have told you that we will continue re-strengthening the squad so we are looking at different positions to make us stronger. Not only those players, others as well. In the next couple of days, we will have further news and I think we will see further additions at Tottenham. But not Chelsea star Juan Mata, according to the man who brought him to Stamford Bridge and made a cheeky attempt to sign him after being gaumped by his old club for Willian. "First, Chelsea wouldn't sell to Tottenham in any way or form, as they think that we are title contenders," he said. Mata is a great, great player - player of the season last season - very, very important player for Chelsea. They're just not going to strengthen another team that, in their opinion, are rivals for the title. Meanwhile, Villas-Boas hit out at England manager Roy Hodgson following Andros Townsend's maiden international call-up. The Portuguese claimed Hodgson failed to consult him over the decision to include the 22-year-old in the squad for World Cup qualifiers against Moldova and Ukraine. "I would've preferred to give my opinion on the fact that he gets caught up so soon," he said, accusing Hodgson of having ditching other Tottenham players after one call-up last season. We had Jake Livermore, Tom Huddlestone, Steven Caulker, called up for England. At the moment, it doesn't seem to have any continuity there. What I hope for is that, for such a big impact on a player, for the smile that he put on his face, for the future of Andros, hopefully we can see some continuity.
