What possible explanation can there be for that performance?

External issues once again?..... Obviously

I have been watching Bale very closely recently....this freedom to roam offers a player the perfect excuse NOT to get

involved....remember Harry individualism is ok....individuals are not!

I would not expect to see Bale starting ag. MANU!

Not impressed with Modric's involvement today either.

There are some tough decisions ahead for HR during the run in.

If you really want that England job Harry now's the time to put your b**** on the line and show that you can ring the

changes if necessary!

I don't expect to see Bale in the squad for next season....jury's still out on Modric but with so much talent available

that's not really a problem is it?
