Definitely. Bale is a class above and a library above. He is more expensive then all that other fodder after all

He won't be anywhere near the level as those players

He is at least 2 groups behind the likes of Messi, Ronaldo, Zidane, Maradonna, Pele, Ronaldino.....

How the furk people have been fooled into thinking he is one of the best players in the world after a good half season, and good couple of games against Inter is beyond me.

His transfer will go in the same way Kaka's went......very disappointing.

How much have you seen bale play? Last ear he was fantastic and he has not been fit and hardly played this year. Ridiculous article.

Still bitter than that Roman got snubbed by Darth Levy.

When?

KDB

Nick is one of those people it would seem

I bet nick is also one of the people that thought we should have sold Cech a few seasons ago, thinks Bertrand should play week in week out, thinks Lukaku is world class and shouldn't have gone out on loan and thinks we should play essien and Mikel in the centre against city

looks well out of his depth today, that what happens when you are developed at a low level club like Spurs.

Awww...couple pints down ya neck ronny? In no way do I think he is one of the best footballers in the world.
But drunk people like yourself judging any player, especially one who played So well last year, on a performance against Barcelona when he's obviously not fit...is like your last comment, ridiculous

Even if I did think bale was world class...which I don't...why would that make anyone think the things you said about Cech and Bertrand etc? Lol you must
Be really drunk. Enjoy mate.

He is a good player with a fantastic strike on him and a very high top speed.

His way of play may have worked in this league, where the end to end action plays well to his attributes. Just don't think it will work well in La Liga.

He had an excellent half season. Mata, RVP and Suarez had a better overall season than him.

Nick

I'm not drunk pal, but saying the article is ridiculous is ridiculous in itself!

I'm stating a fact, not on 1 game, yes he was good last year but form is temporary and class is permanent. He was on form last year and to say that he is on the same level as those players is insulting to those players

Have just watched El classico,and I think that
he has a long way to go.He will propably scorch a few lesser teams, but he has a lot to learn,lets see at the end of the season.

He is an exceptional footballer but I don't think he is random enough. Random is probably the wrong word but I never get the sense he will do anything extraordinary or surprising. I don't think Bale leaves defenders dumbfounded in the way that Messi, Neymar and Ronaldo.

This Nick, is just one thing that bale doesn't have in his locker

Trust me mate, you'll see at the end of the season when bale gets fit and still gets the same results.

He'll improve that is what I believe but he's just not as good and never will be as good as those players

So basically what I said? Then you started saying ridiculous things? Lol.

Lol you didn't like my Bertrand comment?

£85m for bale. levy must be sitting there piddling himself laughing.

so, in theory, bale is worth more than ronaldo. a man who over three seasons has averaged more than a goal a game.

the distance between ronaldo and bale is about the same as that between lampard and barton. except i dont think bale is so deluded that he actually believes he is as good.

this move will end very, very badly.

Only his 2nd start for Madrid, weird how people are judged after such little time.

Ignoring the scandalous price tag, he'll need time to find his best form, and perhaps a full season to settle in. As a Madrid fan, I won't pass judgement until next season.

Madrid's formation yesterday was ideal for him to be able to get at Barça, but our game plan wasn't. The fact we pressed high instead of sitting deep didn't really fit in with that line up.

price tag....Torres...

I think Bale would have been better staying in the PL. I think a move to Utd would have been best for him because I could have seen him tearing it up at Old Trafford.

I also think he will fail at Real Madrid for several reasons and will be back in the PL within two years.

From what I understand many of the Real Madrid players were very unhappy that the club sold Ozil who has been such a key player for them.

When you see how much of a difference Ozil has already made to Arsenal you can understand why.

Bale has come in with a huge price tag on him and he will be under great pressure to prove himself to both the fans as well as his fellow players that he is good enough.

Factor in that Bale is in a different country with a different language and you begin to understand the size of the task that faces Bale. Its a much more difficult environment than the comfort zone that was Spurs.

Thats why I think that Bale will fail to impress and will be back in the PL within two years.

He'll always be an understudy to Ron..that'll be the trouble I suspect
