You're right, and maybe it would happen with another coach, but Zidane has too much power.Well then its the Madrid board who come off as mugs in such a scenario. A manager is well within his rights to pick whatever team he wants, but if everyone else is unavailable or injured or whatever and the manager still isn't playing a player due to a personal vendetta, then the board needs to call out the manager for wasting the club's money to play out his vendetta. Also, its not like Bale has been unprofessional or missed training or anything like that. He's merely underperformed and its a manager's prerogative to make an underperforming player play well if they can't get rid off him.
I don't know how Bale thinks, but maybe, if he was actually fit, he could find some motivation in, for instance, being a part of bringing United back to glory. All while having his name chanted by thousands every week.Even if he wasn’t injured all the time, the guy’s won 4 CL trophies and La Liga. Realistically Wales aren’t going to win anything in his career. Where’s his motivation supposed to come from? At this stage of his career, having racked up a better trophy haul than 99% of players, I can see why he would prefer to take it easy at Madrid, rather than slugging it out at Spurs, United or Chelsea.
It is my opinion of course. What else would it be?That’s your opinion. For Bale this is a job and his livelihood. He’s not under any obligation to be winning trophies and making history.

This is what I don't understand eitherHave zero sympathy with Bale. He had a chance to leave 2 seasons ago but he chose not to so why is he crying n ow. Moreover he is getting paid huge money so it's not like he is playing for free. Having said that feck madrid and their supporters

Apart from Madrid and their fans being complete wankers and blaming Bale for everything even though he is one of their better and most consistent performers. Madrid threw money about to tie him down and now they want to use him as a scapegoat for their massive failures from their management, CEOs, scouts, whatever, he is just taking the piss and draining their bank accounts by being there.Have zero sympathy with Bale.

I agree with what you say and that is why I said feck madrid and their fans too but I cannot sympathise with Bale either. He acts like he is some victim when he had a chance to leave but chose to play for them. Why moan now. You chose to extend your contract knowing well how the madrid fans act. This is why I have no sympathy for players joining madrid. If I join a company where I know I would be abused if I fail to deliver but i chose to stay because they are playing me more then I shouldn't be getting any sympathy. In this case both Bale and madrid are getting what they deserve.Apart from Madrid and their fans being complete wankers and blaming Bale for everything even though he is one of their better and most consistent performers.

If they gave you a 5 year contract for Megabucks, why move somewhere else when they don't want you for less? Would you take a huge paycut in your job and move somewhere you don't want to be like that when you're perfectly happy where you're at?
Maybe I've missed it but where is he crying about it?Have zero sympathy with Bale. He had a chance to leave 2 seasons ago but he chose not to so why is he crying n ow. Moreover he is getting paid huge money so it's not like he is playing for free. Having said that feck madrid and their supporters
Hilarious. His face is like "what do you want me to do with this", then "here, take this, I don't want to hold it".

His agent have been moaning about it since last season. It's like they want to show to Zidane and Madrid how good they are and how Zidane is wrong. My point is why should we sympathize with Bale even if Zidane is mistreating him. I will always say Zidane is a jerk but Bale must have already realised that and even then he wants to be there so why should he get any benefit of doubt.Maybe I've missed it but where is he crying about it?

Ramos suspended.Was Varane captain? Don't understand why he's handing it over in the first place?
Probably so the flag was in the middle of the picture.Was Varane captain? Don't understand why he's handing it over in the first place?
I'm not sure if you're serious.Gareth Bale, King of Comedy.
Honestly this is a fuss over nothing, I doubt he was trying to send any kind of message and the video has been cropped and slowed down in a way to make it look like more than it is. I don't see why he should have talks with his team mates anyway, if they can't be arsed to learn Welsh why should he speak Spanish?
See how fast Moyes picked up the lingo.Any football player who is living/playing that long in a foreign country and doesn't speak the language, is a total wanker. It's unbelievable.
Not to mention, it could easily be the fact that Carvajal is an academy grad and you can understand why he might have done it.That whole clip is stupid. They slow down the clip to make it look like Bale didn't want to accept the emblem from Varane, when in real time he had a look at it, took it and passed it to Carvajal.
