Gareth Bale

[Flavia]

there's been plenty players who scored in cl final. non of them had their value rise to 100m instantly.

You're leaving the context aside. 12 years of waiting for la decima makes his fee already repayed. I imagine any rm fan thinks that way.

 

[El Gato]

Hate his headless chicken manner, but that header was really so redeeming. Not an easy thing to do either as he was falling away from the ball. Prince of Wales comes in and gets such a huge double in his first year.

Can't wait till he develops even more and leads the team to even more titles.

Yep, I'm gonna put 50 euros on Real winning the CL in 2026. You didn't even win the League, which is the main title a team can win in a competitional year.

i never understand people who make 'his fee is paid' statements when a player scores 1 goal. ridiculous regardless of context.

his had a good season tbh but today he was poor. long way from repaying 100m, gonna have to turn into ronaldo for next 10 years to pay that.

 

[footyfan]

He was quite poor, but he was the only player on either team who was getting himself chances with movement and positioning.

Good for him, can't hate the player. Smiled when I saw the delight on his face after the goal.

Imagine how sad I am about that right in this moment now.

 

[DonAK]

Well... cant really say much about this guy now.

It's just a hyperbole, because he scored the most important goal for rm in ages. If it was neymar for Barça, we would be saying the same.

But it wasn't Neymar that's the thing. And we look like fools for it. As if Neymar didn't have enough criticism already.

Hopefully WC he will prove to people that he's just as good if not better than this guy. Which I think he is.

And I didn't mean to have a comparison but it's been like that all season and him winning gets more leverage on his side.

Sorry Jaden, but Bale has been better than Neymar this season. Much better stats, and two big goals against two big teams in two finals. How they play on the field and how you interpret that is subjective, so I won't go there. Just remember that not all teams want the same thing from their attackers.

With that said, Di Maria was the best player on the field today followed by Gabi who put it an absolutely immense performance. Respect for those two.

 

[onzeXI]

I'd take Bale over Neymar every day of the week.

 

[NeyMesSis]

in 2-3 years neymar will be better than Bale and neraly as good as Ronaldo

 

[antonnn]

Toby did such a shit job on Bale for that header. Went to ground when it was clear Bale was never going to use his foot.

It doesn't matter who's the best player, what matters is what player is helping his team win titles...

Neymar is 4 years younger than Bale, who I think he is beyond dumb, which can be (micro) managed, but his atheltic ability is unreal. Btw, his finishing of the header was actually fantastic, after watching it several times, it was a difficult header.
