Gareth Bale

If Bale didn't play for Spurs, he'd be rated more by Chelsea fans I reckon.

Hence, we are biased.

It's nothing to do with him playing for Spurs, i think Modric is the best CM in the league likewise with Valencia on the wing.

I just don't think he is world class, on his day he is a handful for any defender but he doesn't have his day as often as we think. Ive seen more games of him being totally anonymous, and by that i mean i didn't even notice he was playing than i have seen him totally dominate the game.

Ill take him at Chelsea for a reasonable price, which won't be possible with the ludicrous money that mercenary Levy will demand.

getting Bale would be a dream, an unrealistic dream... i would rather have Bale than Modric to be honest... Bale has so much pace and silky-ness

I'd take Modric over Bale anyday

Well, Mata is by far a better player than Modric, and far more dynamic as he can play in a wing position. Ergo we do not need playmakers, we need wingers, and Bale is better than the rest in the EPL, in my opinion. Valencia a close second.

[Jase 43,479]

Why are people even comparing Bale/Mata with Modric? It's not like they are the same type of players.

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Because Mata is a left-winger and a playmaker. Meaning he can be compared with Bale and Modric. Modric and Bale cannot be compared.

Alves is talking up Bale in his press conference today.

Typical Barca tap up tactics. Soon Xavi will say that Bale needs to come home. At least when Chelsea tap up players it's in private motels with armed thugs, gosh.

I like how after he tackles him he looks back and admires his work.
