Still waiting for a consistent season from him, i know the team have issues but he is supposed to be the guy who steps up now.

Cant blame him for our constant defensive errors in our own box, but Bale has not stepped up at all this season.

He sulks far too much to be taken seriously and the redemption criteria have escalated. He'd have to bang in 30 this season for people to forgive him his constant mood swings. Time to part ways. Send him to Chelsea as part of the package.

In general, he is better on the left.

No he's not. The entire flank is left exposed because he doesn't track back consistently, hence Vazquez gets the amount of game time that he gets at an opportunity when Bale doesn't play. Nor is he better there offensively, most of his best performances came from the right and his clunky cutting-in for shots and cross-field passes.

He started as a left back snd used to track back plenty. If he doesn't know it's because the coach doesn't ask him to do it. That simple

credit for the hattrick, but don't let that fool you, being a 'world class' player requires far more consistency, something bale has never shown. he belongs to that category of good players with great athleticism that will occasionally be superb but that are nevertheless like 2 rungs from the 'world class' level

Bale was consistent in his last season at Spurs. After that, he was consistent but plagued with injuries.
