So it looks like the day has finally come when people have stopped comparing Ronaldo and Messi.
Now, they’re asking if Gareth Bale is the greatest player in the world.
Or if he would be. Well, at least his agent is saying that anyway.
Jonathan Barnett has hit out at Real Madrid for freezing Gareth Bale out on the pitch and he claimed that, in the Welsh man, Los Blancos have their best player. If they would only use him more.
“Real Madrid have to work with Gareth and pass the ball to him more,” Bale’s agent told The Telegraph. “Give him more of the ball and let him show everybody what he’s good at.
“He’s going to be the best player at Real Madrid when his team-mates work with him and help him. Hopefully Madrid will come to terms with this.”
We’re not too sure if that would exactly upset them…
Bale has been out of form in recent months and his agent has already lashed out at Roy Keane after the Irish man’s criticism of the most expensive footballer on the planet. But he thinks that his player has taken his lack of form well.
“Most people would have been broken by this form but he is determined. He could have screamed and shouted or knocked on Carlo Ancelotti’s office door but he doesn’t want to upset anyone.
“I spoke to him on Thursday and while he’s obviously pissed off things aren’t going well, he is desperate to get out there again.”
Pissed off he might be but a move to Manchester United as is being touted isn’t an option with Barnett confirming that Bale will be at Real Madrid next season.
“Every top club in the world would want to sign Bale but he will be at Real Madrid next season.
“There’s no way he is going anywhere in the summer. When we said he always wanted to play for Madrid, it was 100 per cent true and he’s determined to be a success there.”
