It works against his "viking" image.That's called shithousing.

I mean, I'm sure the Vikings shithoused too. Lie there and play dead and then leap up and slam a knife into you. You do whatever needs to be done.It works against his "viking" image.
somebody made a compilation Bale's Burnley performance. What a reel. Every frickin touch was positive, meaningful.
Kane’s I understand but Son’s corners have been very good.Keep him in the team now and try to manage his fitness and minutes. He should be on freekicks and corners too, tired of Son and Kane's set-pieces.
No one's devastated mate. Stop trying to make something out of nothing as you usually do.I'm sure he's devastated ?

Okay okayOkay
Maybe mate but i think whats helped him is eventually playing in a team who were able to keep the ball better so he was able to close down with a bit more intensity when we were out of possession. The situations he’s found himself when he’s played or brought on haven’t been easy, a miss match team in the Europa with little chemistry or twenty minutes here and there with the team shape normally a bit of a mess. Personal opinion but I don’t think his mentality or work rate has changed the last couple of weeks. I just don’t think we’ve been particularly clever in how we’ve used him up until now.
It was common knowledge that he wasn’t ready for a full 90 or a PL start for months on end. Those limited appearances were simply to help him get back in the grove. It’s not surprising, he spent the better part of 24 months on the bench in Madrid so I don’t blame him. He was always going to take this long to get up to speed.
So it’s a bit unfair to say we haven’t been particularly clever with him when in essence we’ve been extremely intelligent. I know we all wanted to see this form from day one but that was never going to happen. Now that he’s ready he’ll probably spend less time injured or with niggles in the long term, which means he’ll be consistent and that’s what we really need.
I'm a great believer in players playing their way back into fitness, you can do all the running, gymwork etc in the world ain't nothing like playing match minutes.
Ndombele alluded to this in his latest interview.
Wife or X wife? ?Just seeing that Beautiful man's smile light up my life is enough for me... especially after I spent the first half of the season slagging him off.
Wife has always told me I was a two faced prick! She's finally right about something.
Best part of Bale getting back to form and starting games is that we might never ever ever evaaaaaaaar see Harry Kane take another direct free-kick this season.
