What a difference a tackle can make. In December 2007 when Fabrice Muamba injured Gareth Bale, which would rule him out for the rest of the season, Bale was considered Patrick Beverley Jersey one of Tottenhams brightest young stars. He had scored 3 goals from left-back including a superb freekick against the scum. It could be said he was one of the only succe ses to the start of the end of Jol.Therefore when Bale returned for the 08/09 campaign under exciting manager Ramos there was real optimism Bale was going to immediatly return to his previously dazzling form for both club and country, however it didnt quite work out that way. When Bale played he looked una sured, and appeared to Paul George Jersey have lost the pace he once had, he also was very reluctant to get stuck into 50-50s. Spurs dreadful start to this campaign again didnt help his cause, but it was evident Bale did not look the player he once was.It then became a well known fact Bale had not won a Premier League game in a absurd amount of appearances which obviously went to his head. Redknapp became manager and Bale hardly featured for the rest of the season Bales future looked bleak at Tottenham to say the least. Then the 09/10 season began and with his close friend and teammate for Wales, Gunter left to Forest, and there were rumours Bale was heading in the same Los Angeles Clippers Jersey direction albeit on loan.BAE had finished the last season well and continued to play at left back and scored a screamer against Liverpool on the first day of the season. Bale finally broke his Premiership duck in September 09 however only because he came on as a 85 min sub v Burnley. He played in the cup games, Avery Bradley Jersey and suddenly the Bale Spurs had once knew showed signs of returning a fantastic cro s against United in the Carling Cup springs to mind.Then January came and BAE got injured finally Bales chance to prove his worth, and boy did he. In 2010 it could be said Bale has been Spurs best player with his fantastic runs down the flank, and considerable improvements to his defensive qualities, he can tackle now. I accept Bale is still a work in progre s and isnt always up the scratch defensively, however I beleive Bale has the potential to become a Tottenham starter for the many years to come as he is very young and already looks better than the average at best BAE.I also think Bale could quite easily become a left mid for spurs after his perfomance against Fulham because this would require le s of him defensively, and he has the abilty to beat anybody with his Jerome Robinson Jersey skill and pace imagine a midfield with aaron lennon and a on form bale on the wings? I just hope this dream will become a reality.
