He's Welsh, not British.
Madrid fans are the real snakes here.
If I have to pick between peak Bale vs peak Salah to win me a one off game, I would go with Bale on RW. That's how good he was!
Didn’t he start out as a left back? And then blossomed into one the best attacking forwards in modern history. He definitely overachieved.
Diolch Gar.
Overhead kick and when he smoked Maicon on the pitch
He’s got a proper head of hair now. Has he had a transplant? I’m sure he was receding before he retired…
Ronaldo carried him
He wasn't bothered, in my eyes he underachieved… Football wasn't his driving force.. Pity he could of been so much more, in my eyes a waste of a talent
Ah the part time footballer full time golfer
Finally, a decent haircut.
Greatest British player ever👏
I miss watching Bale play week in and week out for Madrid. I hope he’s enjoying his retirement.
Underachieved imo. It was a combination of pricetag and injuries that frustrated fans and he fed off of the hate. Don't blame him for losing interest in the game, but when he played he always stepped up and acted like the complete professional he was.
One of the best UK players? Name me one better in this generation? Just so i dont get george best comments 😅
My favorite player, Bale was up there with Cristiano and Messi on his day.
nice hair transplant and dyed hair!
“I feel like I overachieved” is a real insight on his mindset. He settled that’s why he couldn’t go further great player but that’s the fine margin between a Ronaldo and a bale
Absolute chancer… stole a top class living for 5-6 years at least
A special, special footballer.
A man who’s body betrayed him but not in the way bodies betray uber athletic players
Best British player ever produced
Greatest player ever that came from British isles. Unreal talent, the speed, the strenght of the guy, started career as a full back, ended as attacker … 5 CL medals, that overhead kick goal is probably the best finals goal in history of the competition.
GREALISH NEEDS TO CUT HIS DAMN HAIR ASAP FFS. Look at this Welsh James Bond
Gareth Bale: I'm MonkeyMan.
The best welsh player ever
Makes me laugh that he played for spurs and could not make them win, proving what a joke of a team tottenhem are
If you have such players, you should be winning in football
Only saw him play once, and he scored a great free kick, but you just knew he was a good player. Such players are not common.
What he did for wales shows he had something, that he got them to tournaments, when ryan giggs and ian rush never did
Just glad he did not choose to play for england.
"One of britains greatest".technically correct,but if was english,they wouldnt say he was british.just say he is from wales
finally sorted his hair out!!!!
oh he finally got rid of that overgrown man bun lol who in da hell was encouraging him to keep that bun for so long lol about 10 different styles of haircuts came and went and that bun was still a cement rock on his head. lol
Disgraceful how he was treated at Madrid after all he did for them. In my opinion the third best player in the world behind Messi and Ronaldo in his prime
The street will never forget that copa del rey and ucl finals
Best British player from recent times.
Amazing player, we are forgetting about players like him.
Gareth is such out this world player..one of my personal favorites
Over achieved 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
isco lo banquiaba
The only thing that overachieved was his hair if anything he underachieved he should still be playing
they categorise him as british but not welsh. but when they speak about other players like bellingham they don't call him british but english.
My goat 🐐 forever.
Genius Hero Icon Legend

True world class heavy hitter for Madrid in peak years. Guy was top class. Ronaldo benzema Bale!!!!
What a front three.
Wales Spurs Saints LAFC Golf Madrid. Legend and winner everywhere. 🐐💯🥳🔥
