Both in their peak?
Right now?
For us?

Bale was a better left back

So hard to call this. Bale at his peak was almost Ronaldo level, but Son is also outstanding. I think Bale just, and that’s also due to his huge achievements with Real

Interesting comparison. I assume you mean Bale at his best for Spurs vs Son right now

Bale was better in his peak. Ridiculous consistency and at one point scoring from everywhere and carrying the team on his back for a season

I'm assuming you're talking their respective peaks because right now Bale isn't a top flight standard player let alone a world class one.

To answer the question that would be Bale, never known someone to max out his athletic qualities so spectacularly.

Perhaps best to compare with when Son finishes the season. He is a fantastic player but has played at a world class level before for 10 games or so and then can drop off in form for another 10 games. This season seems to be the longest time of consistency he’s had playing at his best, if he finishes off the season with little drop off he will be in the running for PFA player of the year and will be a significant factor for Spurs battling for the PL.

I used to love how Bale would grab our team and game by the scruff of the neck through sheer will and power. I’d say Bale but just

Bale at his peak was better, and I’m Sons biggest fan
He was literally the hottest property around, hence the massive fee we got

When the team are poor Son usually is too. Bale used to win us games singlehandedly when we were poor.

Bale at his best vs Son in peak form.

Tough to know until the season is over. If Son keeps this up he just shades it for me but he is usually notoriously steaky

Streaky* lol

Prime Bale was better quite easily

Current Bale is worse than Pepe

Son has been consistently more productive than bale on a per 90 basis but Bale was in a much worse team which he was carrying

It's an interesting question

This. Prime Bale was one of the top footballers in the world. Son hasn't reached that level where he could win games on his own, on a regular basis. Amazing player but prime Bale was just unplayable, hence why he went to Madrid, and won a load of CLs, as the world's most expensive player.

Difficult One tbh

Although should be noted that Bale left Spurs just after his 24th birthday, and Son joined just after his 23rd.

If only we had them in their prime at the same time...

Whilst Bale has been a great player, I think Welsh fans might just put the great John Charles their best ever player. Then again there was also the great Cliff Jones.......🤔

Come on. Prime Bale was the best player in the world after Messi and Ronaldo. Son, even at the minute, isn't even the best player in the team.
