I'd assume if he came back he would play upfront not in the 3 behind the striker/forward
Lazy players don't do that.
Ever.
Well this thread is just fkin comedy gold lol.
Bale is world class.
RM are set up to feed Ronaldo and Bale is included in that feeding.
If Ronaldo leaves and Bale is still there then you'll see him at his best.
Ronaldo is a greedy fker and not a team player imo.
Actually looks pissed off when someone else scores ffs.
I know it's subjective but I'm fascinated when people label Bale as 'World Class', what makes him world class?
In a fantasy world the only player we've sold in the last five years that I'd have back tomorrow is Modric, the rest can stay where they are.

I think he was bought as Ronaldo's replacement, as RM expected ManUre to buy him. When they didn't it left GB as a spare part. If GB stays, at RM, he will come into his own when Ronaldo leaves or retires!
They bought him because they could and also because he was the latest, greatest new toy!! RM are the anti christ of football as far as im concerned!!
La Liga isn't that much different to the Prem. I could understand him saying that if he went to Italy but he didn't. .
I don't really watch any La Liga, but I always thought it was far less physical, that defending is nowhere near as good and that other than the top sides, the rest are poor.
It's always why I had suspicions about La Liga players struggling often like Morientes and Soldado? Clearly the likes of Torres, Costa etc buck that trend.
But as I don't watch much La Liga, I guess it's interesting to hear.
Imagine this team with Bale back.
It's the relative absence of Bale's trademark rampaging runs at Madrid that strikes me. He still does them for Wales, and did them at Spurs all the time, but they seem largely absent at Madrid.
Which kind of connects with a feeling I always have about La Liga - that it is strangely static. I know that sounds ridiculous given the way Barca ping it about and Real flood forward at times, but whenever I watch La Liga I see an odd lack of dynamism around the pitch. I find it hard to put into words, and am not sure what it is I am seeing...more rigid formations? Less emphasis on running off the ball? Less movement/interchange between the three thirds of the pitch? Less willingness to track back? More man-marking? Generally more defensive mindsets?
I don't know, but the games seems so much less fluid and "chaotic" (in a good way) than the PL, and thus much less entertaining to watch. Maybe Bale's missing runs are somehow connected to this.
Not sure he would get the ballKane would score a fucking bundle if Bale was back in our team.
Word.
