Bill Madrid isn't that "A tomar por culo"? I haven't seen that gesture done since the 90s. But I do hang around with classier people nowadaysBill Madrid Spanish Spur could either of you guys explain why Bale is possibly facing a 12 match ban for some hand gestures?
Gareth Bale 'could face 12-match ban' for gesture after scoring in Madrid derby
yeah what you said. btw I might be in Madrid for the Chelsea game if you're out and know a good barI didn't see it but it's a well know "offensive" gesture here, called a corte de mangas or "arm cut". You slap one hand on the inside of you elbow and thrust your lower arm up in a shove-it-up-your-arse fashion.
The fist is usually closed in the classic corte...
although Gibbon Boy seems to have incorporated a V sign (which Spaniards don't understand by the way), fusion stylee
I feel a little bit bad for Bale. Yes he's made ungodly amounts of money and had some big moments on the biggest possible stages, but it kinda feels like he's spent the prime of his career at a club he doesn't particularly enjoy where he isn't much appreciated.
Once you get that enormous contract it's like golden handcuffs, you become un-transferrable.
I bet he'd come back to Spurs in a heartbeat if we made it worth his while in wages, which we won't and honestly probably shouldn't.
Might appreciate him a bit more if the lazy fucker put a bit more effort into learning Spanish. Surely not too much to ask of someone that's been there nearly six years.but it kinda feels like he's spent the prime of his career at a club he doesn't particularly enjoy where he isn't much appreciated.
He's cunt for that, but he's our cunt. Would love him back.I still have feelings for him. Can't help it.
He's been there five and a half years but still can't speak Spanish. He must be very dim, eh?

I’m sure that’s the sort of thing that Poch would love...
Wow. That's pretty damning not just of Bale but of AVB for letting it happen. Absolutely unbelievable stuff.
He must have, surely. Who says he hasn't?Still hasnt learnt spanish apparently after 5 years. What a complete idiot.
Surprisingly, it appears he can speak some but I honestly didn't think he could either.He must have, surely. Who says he hasn't?
In the video Guido posted with Mason, they mentioned that.Still hasnt learnt spanish apparently after 5 years. What a complete idiot.

I don't know why, but this just makes me laugh.
Seriously though, does it seem like he's reading at times? I get that speaking it more difficult than listening, but there's such a discrepancy between the interviewer and him that something just appears to be off.
