Hi mate, a Bale fan from Madrid here. He was still the best of the squad in Madrid by far, but after two years in the bench we'll need time to see what he can do concerning speed. I have faith he will recover, he's an athletic beast. However, he's so injury prone that in that sense it's difficult to be optimistic.
You have millions of new spurs fans this year, we the madridistas who like Bale, Mou and Reguilón. The Bale affair has been so insulting for him and for us that we badly want him to prove Zidane and the club have been a**holes with him and with us, the fans who pay to see him playing by our side.
We are following the Premier League this season more than La Liga, our squad is just awful and we have zero chances in Europe, our only real target, the league is a small meaningless trophy now a days.
So COYS and Gareth we want you to give Spurs the league this year.
