#3 Gareth Bale should probably move

Gareth Bale scored an absolute beauty

Woof. That finish.

Ad

Taking it first time, running onto a peach of a layoff from Marco Asensio, Gareth Bale peeled back the years, kept those injuries in a locked room far far away and absolutely belted the ball into the back of the net.

It was a goal of pure, unadulterated, skill.

A skill that's been on show far too few times in his Real Madrid career.

It's not Madrid's fault that they have to cater to Ronaldo - anyone would - but it's become evident that the Welshman doesn't have the complete trust of Zinedine Zidane... or indeed his teammates. Far too often, this season especially, he's been passed up when he's made a run or called for the ball in space... and he really shouldn't have to suffer this.

Move, Gareth.
