Gareths was better because it was against the red plague
The competition has nothing to do with what was the better goal.
In my view Sinclair’s was better because it was on the run and more difficult to execute and looked better.
Why discount relevant factors like that? It makes a difference that it was in a CL final with the opposition desperate to stop you, the world watching, all those nerves, and against top opposition. In comparision Sinclair's goal was against a team who got relegated that season, crap defence, goalkeeper, and they were already losing the game. Bale's goal was just much harder to score for all those reasons. But in my view, if you ignore all that and look at the technical aspects, both goals were good but Sinclairs was a simpler goal to score because of the loop of the ball and positioning and so he was able to get a straight hit on it, and the ball just left his foot in basically a straight line. Great goal, not saying otherwise, but Bale's it was not so easy technically because of the tradjectory, speed, positoning etc. Maybe I'm wrong but to my eye it looks a much harder shot to pull off. In fact, had he hit it like Sinclair, in a straight line, the goalkeeper would have had a chance to save it.

Just for the record, when you’re next bragging about your positive ratings, that ‘funny’ is me laughing at you.
Zlatan's against England is maybe the best goal of all time.
Ridiculous goal
It was from outside of the box, that did make it impressive I have to admit.
Dimitar Berbatov did okay wearing number 9. If Bale scores that many I'll be fucking ecstatic.
It was our (current) goalkeeper who gave him that chance wasn't it?
He clearly doesn’t want number 9 given how many times he references it in the latest video
no, but everyone looks small against St Gareth of Bale
Does anyone know where/how to find the digital voucher for the official online shop that was supposed to come with membership renewals this year? Can't see anything in emails.
EDIT
Ignore - vouchers haven't been sent out yet. Starting end of September according to Ask Spurs.

Yeah he seemed to be surprised by it and thought it looked weird... writing is on the wall for poor old Lamela.
You leave Super Pav alone.
