So you think he didn't fancy playing in the biggest game of his career? Give over, the guy couldn't walk

No, I think he's pussied out of a game he thought he had no chance in winning. It was a knock, it wasn't enough to take him out the game.

You been on the beers tonight? If there one thing Ronaldo is, it's a big game player and guy would want to be scoring the winning goal in this game even if it meant poaching it on the line from someone else.

He tried to come back on twice FFS, why would he go off and give his team less chance of winning if he was fine to carry on.
 
He did against England too.

Wasn't really a pop at Wales, more at managers that pick their best player and immediately think they've got to play upfront.

IIRC it was Hal Robson that played up front against England until he went off then Bale went up top. That was more down to a lack of real options than anything though.

I know it wasn't a pop but Bale rarely plays up top for us, he has done a few times when we haven't had Kanu fit but mostly he gets a free role to do as he pleases which suits him and gets the most out of him.

Because it gets the cameras on him [HASHTAG]#attentionseekingwhore[/HASHTAG]

(Really expected this to get mancs rather than Liverpool fans ;) )
 
If he's genuinely injured, Real Madrid should go ape **** at him.

- 10-15 minutes playing on it
- running around before extra time
- not sat down throughout extra time

Obvious not that bad is it

I bet it doesn't hurt enough to stop him claiming the steps either
