I haven't seen anything about bale's injury - he looked in a lot of pain.

Apparently it was only tactical on Wednesday, but he looked in pain. Team news will be in later today.

I heard that they have lost 2 of them coloured straps that actually keep him attached. without them he may play some part but will be missing a hamstring and a groin

He really is a fanny, and you can tell that Harry gets pissed off with him being such.

He makes Gomes look 'ard'.

I heard he lost some of his hair products and has had to have 2 weeks off to recuperate with the shock

I met him last night at the box holders' party and he was totally non-committal about when he would be back. He wasn't smiling much though, and he was the only player to have to perch on a stool. Ledley said he hoped to play this weekend but I'd be very surprised if Bale was.

Is Bale warranting a place in the first eleven at the moment....? Personally speaking he needs to be benched for and give either Krancjar or Pienaar a game or 2....

Agreed, I was really annoyed at his lack of movement in the Arsenal game, Luka was begging him to run in behind Sagna on a few occasions and he just stood there.

I think it would be beneficial if he has a rest for a week or two. He looks like he is lacking confidence. When on the ball he still tries things but just doesnt seem up for the fight/battle with the opposing full-back IMO.

Im not sure what it is, maybe he is still worrying about injuries or it could simply be just a loss of form. We could really do with him firing on all cylinders though pretty damn quick.

How can any one here know how much pain bale was in? How can he be called a pussy? The guy will run at a faster pace and collide with players twice the size of most of you, he got nailed twice on weds by the keeper. Give the guy a break

I agree with most of you regarding Bale. He was having a stinker and I think there was fuck all wrong with him. Harry dropped a big hint about it after the game. The reaction on the bench had shades of the home game against Milan about it (when Bale was insisting he couldn't play.) And we told the chaps at Sky that our two halftime substitutions were tactical.

The guy got cleaned out by the 'keeper and you're having a go at him for being a wimp.

Why are Spurs fans such idiots?

Can't believe you're sat in here slagging him off.

:roll:

:clap: spot on. the guy was cleared hit very hard and looked in a lot of pain. if he was in great form would people be saying he is a wuss or would they be saying that teams are targetting him to kick him? he may not be on great form at the moment but injuries happen.

I'd be a lot more worried if he started pulling out of challenges. If he were doing that then you could legitimately criticise him and his mentality, but putting his body on the line like that is a good thing.

Are you people slagging Bale off really serious?! Grow a brain before you tell him to grow a pair...
