Don’t care who the oppo was, had a good game and scored a lovely goal
If not Bale, then who?
Steady on mate. He's been decent but let's not oversell it.
Still, I agree we should try and get him involved more.
Son and maybe Kane are capable of executing that goal he scored yesterday.
Jose is an idiot for not starting him.
Jose is an idiot for not starting him.
Son and Kane are certainly a level above (on form), but I honestly think that neither of them have scored an inventive goal like that in their lives.
Out of the box thinking. Similar to Ndombele recently.
TBH, we are lucky to have all 3.
Time to use all three as well for mine.
I'm not ready to forget a top 4 spot, and I think if Bale is given some licence we can shock a few.
Harry v Woolwich in two all draw at WHL, Sonny against Burnley last season.And plenty more besides.
I know we are all desperate for Bale to show his best form on a consistent basis but it is not a reason to besmirch the remarkable talents of Harry and Sonny.
No besmerching in that post.
I'll grant you the Kane goal.
Son's goal v Burnley was different. Excellent dribbling rather than completely unexpected creativity.
As per the TFC ratings he was deemed man of the match.
Shame he couldn’t feature against Everton, him coming on instead of Winks and we would probably still be in the cup
I think Jose will introduce him at some point tomorrow.... mind you, he did exactly that when we we're 3-0 up against them at home, and it had precisely the opposite effect it was supposed to!!!
IF he starts, I imagine it will be instead of Moura/Bergweign/Lamela...
Bale Kane and Son up front still gives me the excitement of a giddy 10 year-old who doesn't really understand how football tactics work, but just wants to see all his favourite players on the pitch at the same time... regardless of whether it's a good idea or not!
So the reality is, I guess Jose will go a little more pragmatic, especially away from home, and ESPECIALLY as the reverse fixture kinda kick started the doubt about playing free flowing expansive football....
Yes, it CAN put you 3-0 up, but doesn't do much to prevent the opposition coming back into it!!
Based on this season, is say we've got some revenge to dish out, but based on results against them in seasons gone by, then maybe the 3-3 was THEIR revenge for all those annual late late winners we scored against them! (and Bale had a hand in some of those games!!)
Clean slate, we go again.... COYS!

Bale not scoring to make it 4 1 or 4 2 or whatever it was is a bit of a sliding doors moment for him, I feel.
He has to start him or no point.
All about messages.
Last chance for Bale in a glittering career to show he can still be a force.
60 mins tomorrow will tell us much.
Strong rumours coming out that Bale will be starting tomorrow and to right. Been waiting to see Son, Kane and Bale properly given a run of games for ages. Bergwijn has proven he isn’t good enough and Lucas is very inconsistent. Time to unleash Bale and give him starts in the Prem
if he is starting tomo lets just hope its central and not too the right. hes too good to not be central
