Is AVB getting a bit silly about GB?

Is AVB getting a bit silly

 

[parklanephil]

No.
He is backing his players and instilling confidence. It's a management thing, tends to enhance performance and team spirit.

 

[SanDiegoYiddo]

His tackling is an 18 on FM2012. Checkmate, atheists.

 

[Raitei]

At least he's not daft enough to compare Defoe to Falcao.

 

[NorseYid]

We should really play Bale as a left back.

 

[SanDiegoYiddo]

Oh for fuck's sake, he's not a WORLD CLASS defender.

I bet he could be a world class left back if he wanted to.

 

[Kalyl]

Oh for fuck's sake, he's not a WORLD CLASS defender.

if you would READ his post you'd see it quite clearly that he's saying he's NOT a world class defender...

 

[Raitei]

Confidence, Rodders.

 

[JDK]

AVB stop complimenting the players!

But really, what's he supposed to say?

 

[Tucker]

Can you even read?

Tempted to lock this and put it in the classics.

 

[Nick "Trevor" Sharp]

At number 1, it's Gareth Bale, at number 2, Gareth Bale, at number 3, Gareth Bale, number 4, Gareth Bale...

 

[Thelonious]

So what does "world class" mean anyhow? Can you have things like a world class hooker?

You can in rugby

 

[Dannyboy]

So let me get this straight, defensively Bale is a world class fisherman?

 

[escher]

"When there are so many things that go well for the team it is hard to single out individuals but Gareth Bale is a world class player offensively and defensively, as he showed when he made the block at the end to prevent Swansea getting a draw."

er, yes he's an excellent attacking midfielder, but really, blocking a shot against Swansea doesn't make you WORLD CLASS DEFENSIVELY

Silly thread.Shut it down or I will with a bulldozer.

hmm, a "Bulldozer vs Internet Forum Thread" - the Pokemon Developers are just so simplistic in their universe tbf.

I resent the notion that it's only Swansea. They are a very good attacking team, the fact that he was there to block the shot shows he has not only a great determination, but also a massive work rate. He could have hung around on the half way line waiting to make a run on the break.

So yes, when you factor in his all round game, that finish, that amazing pass, and his true grit to be back defending the team, yes he is World Class.
