Can someone tell him this isn't 10m diving please. He's becoming a bit embarrassing with his theatrics now.

He needs to think back 12 months and be that Gareth Bale again.

Absolutely agree with this, said the same thing to my mates whom we are watching the game.

The diving and theatrics are terrible and needs to be removed from his game, its embarrassing to watch.

I'm not pleased when one of our own wins Soccer AM's "Tom Daley's Dive of the Week".

No he wasn't, take the spurs tinted specs off..It was not a penalty, and even if he gets fouled we get 10 minutes of lying on the floor with the Peter Griffin oooos and ahhhhs.

He was doing it 12 months ago too :lol: It's just one of the things we have to put up with be because, despite the size and strength of him, he's a bit of a pansy and I don't ever see him changing.

I don't seem to remember the constant dives and rolling around, but maybe that's because he was becoming one of the best players in the world...seems to have regressed a bit lately.

Sometimes I feel he should stick to the left wing role. The central/free role is good against lesser opposition but feel he needs to stick to the left against better opposition. This way gives bae options for passing up the left wing.

This.... His job is to get down the wings with his pace and cause havoc and whip those crosses in.

I can also remember not so long ago how he spent most of the match fucking sorting his hair out every 5 mintues. He's now moved on to carrying on like a pussy at times and making a meal of challenges. He needs to get his head down and put in some graft for the team and add some consistency to his game.

he needs to exploit the left, and only if he cant make his move in game from the left, then he should move inwards. and he should stop diving. its getting really annoying.

Harry needs to manage him better - he needs to keep him on the left and stop this random role bullshit, and Gareth, himself, needs to cut out the flash shit and just play the power game he's used to dominate teams with.

The adoration has gotten to his head, he needs to reign it in and get back to his explosive self. We really need him playing over the enxt few weeks.

As we keep saying but Harry doesn't see it we have one of the best left sided and dangerous players in world football but we keep messing him about and sticking him right and central

Bale is just a decent player when he's on the right hand side. On the left he's world class

Yeah agree. It's just part of his development I think and I'm sure we will see more good days than bad.
