It’s like a new Bale all of a sudden, engaging on Twitter with Peter Crouch, it’s brilliant to see!
Genuinely excited and starting to believe we could see the best Bale back in a month or so!

I'm not on Twitter, any chance of a link?

It's amazing how far we've come as a society in such a short time.

it’s absolutely insane how hostile the Gallowgate and Leazes End used to bur to black players - with the home fans hurling bananas etc at their own players. I have never seen so much hate as Mitchell Thomas got that game... I want to say it’s a different world now,

I'm so happy right now.

But the person I am most Happy for is Harry Kane, he deserves this.

He's also replied to Rafa. I'd say Madrid are very much micro managers when it comes to socials. Certainly seems a different Bale on the twitter doesn't it!

Obviously now very happy.

Not sure if previously mentioned but I reckon they delayed the announcement to get them into fifa21

He loves it. In the backstage footage he literally tells the interviewer about how he was 9 in a pre-season game and he still has the shirt. I don't think that's him disliking it at all.

I knew he was good, but played in pre season at only 9! Wowzers

Bale came across far more happy to be here in the behind the scenes off the cuff number/memories stuff than the contrived interview.

Love it. Re-debut will be so, so special. It best be on a weekend so I can watch.

Bale's going to make me bite the bullet and join Twitter, isn't he?

I live in Denmark. The yellow kit with Bale 9 and EL badges is 929 DKK. That about £115.

A bit steep.

I'm curious to put things into prospective how good prime Glenn Hoddle is, how much would u reckon a prime Glenn would fetch in the current market?

Click to expand...

9 figures, easily. Prime Hoddle was devastating, guileful, had exceptional skill and incredible vision. He wasn’t fast, but to borrow a phrase he was playing chess while everyone else played draughts.

He definitely doesn't seem too impressed with no9. Lamela is sleeping with one eye open from now on.
