idiot
at last,at last.i wrote months ago bale was wasted playing wide.he is capable of 15-20 goals a season in the correct role.and this is it.as was mentioned being double marked when out on the wing gave him nowhere to go.hes nearly two footed so attacking down the middle gives him options he doesnt have playing wide.rose could do a excellent job on the wing and is a good defender.who do you drop?i dont know.this is now such a excellent team.we are getting injurys all the time.so maybe rose will get his chance.
