I don't understand why people are suddenly having problems with Bale. He is an individualist but that's why he became a 100M player. He takes the ball, tries to run through the defense and shoots, more often than not he scores. That's how he scored a lot of his goals last season including the one against Barca where he ran almost halfway across the field. He probably scored a lot of goals in his career from chances like those against Valencia so he thought he'd go for it. But he's not the player for intricate passing movements and elegant goals. He's more in the category of Suarez (without the biting) and Costa (with less fouls), they bully their way through to goal. Either way I hope they play better against Atletico. I do hope we start with a defensive midfielder next to Toni, otherwise the poor boy has to defend too much.
