Gareth Bale

[Semi-Neutral]

If he stays at Real for the rest of his career and repeats this season he'll be well worth it, let alone if he improves.

Considering the inflated transfer market prices. By the end of his career, people will be like, "100M Euros? LOL. Peanuts." It's sad that transfer prices are getting so high though.

Imagine we will hut a bubble at some point.

 

[KingMessi]

Imagine we will hut a bubble at some point.

I hope, for the sake of the game, that we do.

 

[Haruko The Goon]

Should have listened to me. To get somebody that physically strong, with such pace, and amazing at dribbling will also be a seriously dangerous player.

Knows how to strike a ball quite well too

 

[Hamzah]

He wouldn't fit here at all.

 

[Haruko The Goon]

Bale on the LW? surly that would work out...

Actually, because Messi is the best ever, you accomodate the team and formation to suit his needs. If that's the case, what formation do you need to play to get the best out of LM?

 

[Hamzah]

Bale likes space to run into we don't really get that, because we have the ball so much. Even Neymar struggles from this a little bit so with bale it would the same but even more.

Formation wise yeah he'd fit into one of the wingers positions but not playing style wise.

Edit... Also he isn't a Good dribbler, he just hits then ball ahead and runs after it. A dribbler works in tight spaces like Messi, di Maria, iniesta etc.

 

[Galning]

Bale would be a disaster at Barcelona.

 

[xavisionary]

I don't understand why 'directness' is not valued by Barca fans. You could really use someone like Bale IMO.

 

[Hamzah]

Most prem players that come here end up not working out. I think directness isn't good for Barca.

Okay fairplay. Not a good technical dribbler, but knows how to leave a full back for dead given the space.

Perhaps Barca could change their style?

Change style for Bale who has just joined Real Madrid for over 100M? That does not make any sense

 

[Hamzah]

It's hypothetical. Also I don't think I changing the style is possible. Too many people would be against it. We had less posession than Rayo in one match this season and even though we won 4-0 people were pissed.

Hypothetically, before he signed for them.
