I agree with Darren π―π
Bale was good. Great even. But overrated and lazy as hell.
Maybe not in Greatest π in GB but maybe π€ in Wales !
Oh come on Bale is not even the best player from Wales (Giggs).
Best , Greaves , Bale my top 3 , perhaps Moore as well.
If anyone disrespects him they are crazy! Great player for club and country, turns up in big games, just unlucky with injuries
Bale at Spurs was his best time, the year before he went to Madridβ¦
Playing with those egos in Madrid meant he couldnβt be consistent
NOT ON UR LIFE IS HE TOP3 …BENT IS SMOKEING THAT GOOD STUFF…
Gazza, best, Adam, Terry, stevie g, list goes on…. ur insane if u think he is top 3….
(HE makes the list for sure…. but top 50, he dnt get to sit with the top 10) let's calm down….. otherwise …. Gary nev is top top right backs ever π€£π€£π€£π€£
Bale is excellent. He's not better than Rooney, Greaves, or Best. He's not better than Gazza even.
Bale was elite for like 4 seasons tops! But anit nobody acting like he a legendary player
Rooney Nr1! π₯
1. George best, 2. Bobby Charlton, 3. Jimmy greaves/Kenny dalglish. Pains me to say the top 2 being a Liverpool fan π
Bale never won balondor but Michael Owen did just saying
looooooooooooooooooooool Bale top 3 is funny he has real ballers to thank for the CL's not temporary now n then when i feel like it footballers like himself
If he was English heβd be the greatestππ Rooney couldnβt lace heβs boots
Bale is not even the best Welsh player ever. That accolade belongs to John Charles.
4 great seasons !!!!
Wont be missed
Bale
Best
Rooney
Nope, already could think of Rooney, Lampard and Gerrard and thatβs just from an English stand point. Ian Rush, Dalgish etc.. Bales decorated but naa the last couple of seasons leading up to his retirement has stained his chances of being top 3. Wasnβt even Top 3 at Real at any point. IMOπ€·πΎββοΈ
Brilliant for 3 years but not even top 10 British player
Canβt say all time because you canβt rate players from different eras against each other, it makes no sense. Especially if youβre young and youβve only ever watched this era, how can you say Bale is better than Charlton, Moore etc? Through watching YouTube videos?
Shame he wasted the later years
Great player. Shame had so many injury problems, that with his love of golf and never really as loved as some at real madrid, probably why he only turned for wales in last couple of years, people quick to forget how players were in their prime
Greatest player was George best
1. Best
2. Rooney
3. Bale
Bale of Sicknote has been retired for 3-4 years now. The wage thief was just waiting for his massive contract to expire before he announced it.
Jimmy Johnstone , Kenny dalglish, Denis law , best 3
Heβs not even top 10
Bale basically won 2 CL for Real Madrid on his own.
Cracks me up all these sheep claiming Bale is number 1!!
Dalgleish
Greaves
Hoddle
Rooney
Gerrard
Giggs
Best
Law
Ball
Charlton
Are all ahead of him.
Even a prime Owen and scholes I'd argue were better.
In my opinion to be up there with the best you have to be complete… And before the hate begins I'm not saying Gerrard is the greatest British player ever, but he was complete. Strength, pace, leadership, could spray a ball like KDB, scored some of the best goals in premier League history, and could tackle. He was complete. Bale isn't.
But in my opinion Best is the greatest.
If anyone thinks Gareth bale is in the the top three British players is deluded Darren bent is severely bias and please stop going on about what he did for wales what have wales ever done? Baleβs best attribute is playing golf
Bale at his best was like a one man team.
Matthews Greaves Moore linekar gazza Adams daglish Gerrard scholes list goes on doesn't come close
he's decent but he's no Rory McIlroy
Bale is Legend. Gareth was Vinnie jones when defending, and Cafu when attacking. The Welsh Vinnie Fu
He went to Madrid thinking he would replace R9…when he realised he wasn't fit to clean his boots he became the pathetic little bench warmer.
Bale is a legend
Dareen always a sober intelligent speaker. Love his inputs and he and Stein are a great combo
shows the level of british football when bale is regarded as the greatest british player , and you guys invented the sport lol such a shame
That goal vs Liverpool was so damn good. It's one of the best of all time. Top 5 champion league goals ever.
Bale's love hate relationship with football is why he is not as respected as people who have achieved less
Bale is so underrated by the UK and us Madrid fans didnβt appreciate him enough as well he fell off in his last few seasons but in his prime he was amazing
George Best is the best. Then the rest are open. Definitely best Welsh player.
I think what left a bitter taste in the Madrid fans mouths ,was Bale's trolling behavior in the later stage of his tenure…
People forget how good Keegan was. Best player in Europe, twice, great athlete too.
IN the top 3 ur having a laugh bent
Bale is better then Lewandowski
Gareth Bale in the top 3 you got to be kidding me, top 25 maybe
