#3 Bale to become the 'next Ronaldo':

AC Milan v Real Madrid
Gareth Bale in action

There's no doubt over Gareth Bale's skills and abilities. It was his injuries which restricted him from being one of the top 3 players in the world after Leo and Cristiano. With his recent performances, Bale looks hungry to thrive as if he was waiting for Ronaldo to leave.

Bale scored the second goal of the match and looks in good touch prior to the season which is surely a positive side for Lopetegui, who wishes to win his first major trophy at Real Madrid against Atletico.

Julen already made it clear that Bale would be taking over Ronaldo's role, and Bale started at Ronaldo's old position against Milan. He made it clear that there's a lot to come from him in this season.
