I think I said here that he is Isco with pace and explosiveness. That is how I would describe him. Those two attributes allows him to get by many deffenders.
I ended it already on my last post.. you think he is not better than Bale so there is nothing more to discuss. Making that statement based on how the two players are playing currently, Bale being benched in the clasico and then coming in late to screw up an open net chance, does not make you look like someone who makes any sense at all. You must not even watch our own games.
We all know very well what Bale is capable of. Remember last year when he was finally proclaimed as a substitute, and he had to fight for the spot in the CL final. He was a beast in the last matches, wanted to provw himself. I think he did it and it showd in the final. But why he doesn't show this attitude more often? After his performance in the final and with Ronaldo leaving, I thought he will become our leader in attack. He had the perfect opportunity and he failed. I don't get it at all - he wasn't happy because he wasn't playing, but when he plays he does play he is not doing it at 100%, not even close to that. Seeing an 18 year old doing the job he was supposed to do or at least what I thought he was supposed to, changed my mind on him - sell no matter what. He has the football qualities but not the mentality for Real Madrid.
I don't think he delivers more of what we've been lacking from Bale, which is considerable end product. We need a productive player on the wing, especially without having a volume scorer in the 9 position. We replace Bale with Hazard, and we don't really jump another level. We're refreshening, but we don't adress our problem with Bale (end product) at all.
We are lacking everything from Bale not just goals. He plays because he may score a goal or two here and there and his salary but besides that he offers nothing and most fans are not happy with that. Hazard will produce more playing in a far superior team and with higher quality players all around.
That's your opinion. Maybe he produces the most when he's the main focus of the team as he is now in London.
Hazard will consistently demonstrate a superior level of skill on each play of every game which is the difference from Bale who might have only have one or two good plays per game and will only play half the games. Goals are all but irrelevant because Hazard will be important every minute.
⚪️💯⚪️: Bale reaches the century mark for @realmadriden in all competitionshttps://t.co/0kX6zbUdTA— beIN SPORTS USA (@beINSPORTSUSA) February 9, 2019 Weird celebration but for some reason riled up Atleti fans behind the net, so all okay
Nothing weird about it. That's a universal "******** you" movement, just like flipping a middle finger or putting you hand under your chin and pulling it forward. Well done Bale!

Not reliable throughout the course of a season as we all know, but he is a big game player, can’t deny that.
Yeah how dare someone put up basic statistics side by side. The utter travesty. Cmon man, lighten up. Everyone knows the numbers don't paint the full picture, but the numbers are what they are.
