I don't get your point, outside of the fact you think I'm small minded because I think Barcelona defend like school kids and somehow I should be bigger than that. I'm not, if I think a goal was like a goal from a school pitch, I'll say so and if that makes me small minded because I don't worship Barcelona or Gareth bale I can live with it. Its better than my other analogy where I thought it looked like a Benny hill sketch. It was a comic goal and outside of bale being very fast I struggle to see any football in there outside of poor defending, poor goalkeeping and some bad touches and a desperate toe poke from bale.

 

I don't really care who you rate or not, I considered you small minded because of the cursing and whacking bit.

Bale's got incredible pace and a great shot but he's still more of a great athlete playing football than a great footballer. He's the product of 30 years of sports science devoted to making the perfect footballer, and I often suspect there's some steroids involved in his recent surge. Kyle Walker is a similar prototype - fast, powerful but a shit footballer.

 

I'd still take a Jan Molby over the coming generation of genetically modified players.

Surely the aim is to have a genetically modified Jan Molby??

Thought bales goal was ace, myself. Physically, he's probably the best player in the world. I don't see any other player scoring a goal like that. Absolutely fucking rapid, that lad. Nobody can deny he's world class

 

I think that is why it was a great goal, very few players could score that goal in the way he did.  

 

Ronaldo is one who could, can't think of many more who could blow a player away as easily as Bale did with that pace.  But the toe poke finish I thought was cute.

Two words Djibril Diese. FA cup final good example. Not sure he was world class.!
