That elbow by Bale was so unbelievably satisfying, he's won me over so much that I'd be happy for him to be back in the team purely just to goal hang. :LOL:

I still think he should be starting.

With what he does in an attacking sense Jose really can’t afford one player not to assist defensively?

You have likes of Moura to do that kind of running as he is nowhere near as talented as Bale.

He’s always pissing about when talking to his teammates, which is Much better than the dead straight, serious version we tend to get in regular interviews.

Can anyone seriously tell me with a straight face that we would have been any worse off in that match with Bale starting?

Waiting for Shadydan....

Its ridiculous the guy that saved mourinho his job with his performances gets treated this way. Because of one below par performance where the whole team was shit and then coming on as a sub in the Europa league collapse when again there were many more who played the full match who were way more culpable.

Cutting off our nose to spite our face.

He swaned onto the pitch chewing gum not giving a toss and then hit that free kick over the bar like he was playing rugby for Wales.

Yeah because he was brought to Newcastle to sit on the bench. He was done warming up and was mentally done with the game as Jose had Sissoko ready to come on before they scored the equalizer. Then all of a sudden we concede a goal and Jose is rushing him to strip off and get on the pitch to rescue the game for him from a free kick when he's not had a touch of the ball.

Sorry but if that's me, after the run of form Bale was in to turn our season around and then to be treated with the disrespect Jose has treated him and that shit happens, it would piss me the fuck off too. We all know Bale is better than what Jose is doing with him and IMO it's all down to his lack of man management skills.

Jose has no idea how deal with players to give them confidence. All he does is hype them up when they're in form like his stupid comments like "When Bale plays like this not one manager in the world doesn't play him". And then when they need good man management to build their confidence he takes snide shots in public and drops them in favor of "his boys" who are inferior players.
