Jeff Stelling: Bale is better than La Liga's Ronaldo

Giggs earned the right to play in that better team, he didn't get in by default.

Giggs was a truly brilliant winger, with trickery, skill, vision, pace as well as the ability to accurately pass and cross a ball. The only one of them Bale does consistently is pace. The rest he is inconsistent at. Bale is more about athleticism than ability (although he does have ability as well).

If Bale gets to a major international tournament it will be purely because UEFA are expanded the European Championships. It's still unlikely that Wales will make it though.

Bale would easily get into Manchester United's team and probably any team in the world.

Bale also actually performs for Wales (average international team.)

Giggs did nothing at all for them.

Put it this way.

You have to pick an all time Wales XI to play the current England team at the Millennium Stadium.

You come to pick your left winger.

Who do you pick?

Giggs or Bale?

You pick Bale.

Put it this way. Fuck Wales.

You have to pick an all time Premier League XI - you pick Giggs.
 
Needs to learn to stand up soft monkey faced ****.

Lose his pace and he'll be half the player. Messi and Ronaldo have so much more in their lockers (porno mags, fan mail, maybe a nice chocolate bar).

Now. But have them the same age...hard to choose IMO.

You're a right back and you can choose to come up against Bale or Giggs.

You pick Giggs.
 
on his day unplayable. if his day can become more consistent that claim wont be as outlandish as it sounds now

and to think if Assou Ekotto hadn't have got injured Harry would have sold him to Forest :lol:
 
You would hate to play Bale now.

Out of interest, how old are you? Did you see a lot of Giggs in his prime?

Bale is terrifying because of pace. Giggs was terrifying because of his dribbling ability. Bale's athleticism makes him the player he is. Giggs was technically brilliant as well as being fast as fuck.
 
PotM is probably only 12 mate.



NOW. And in the 90s and early 2000s you'd feel the same about Giggs.

May as well say Bale is better than Bobby Charlton :roll:

I'm not comparing Bale to Giggs now.

I'm comparing Bale to a young Giggs.

Bale is still better, ask any Wales fan.

Giggs didn't give a shit about Wales though. He was in an appalling team (even worse than they are now) and he was sick of being the only player with any real talent. He used to pull out of games all of the time and then be fit to play for Man United the next week.

Shows that Bale is better.

Can play well in a team with average players less talented than himself.
