Had already done my bets for this round but I've stucked $10 on the forum bet. Returns $143.

Honestly i think the general public have gone from overrating him to underrating him now..... Player gets insane hype from media thus receives so much abuse and becomes underrated.... it always f*cking happens and i think it's happened with Bale. I think he's a pretty fantastic player and one of the best in the league but nowhere near as much the media hypes him. He's not better than Ibra either. There's honestly not many/if any better that does what he does. He's perfect for the way AVB likes to play with fast, fluid counter attacking football. This will be the third season in a row he's chipped in with double figures whilst playing out wide, you can't argue with that return. People are mentioning his consistency but I don't think it's any worse than the majority of attacking midfielders. Bale is fucking brilliant. No two ways about it for me. If he's on form, and he is more than not, forget about trying to play against him. He plays like a man possessed and there's nothing defenders can do. A winger scoring a hat trick against the reigning defender of the year is something nobody else has done. That's what it took for people to realise he was one of the best wingers in the world. People arguing that he's one footed etc but so is Mata, Valencia, Ashley Cole, Van Persie as well. These are some the best players in the league. Agree the media overrates as he isn't the best player in the world (outside the untouchable top three) by a long shot, but he's 23 and getting there for me.

As soon as I read that I got to about 8 players in this league alone who are better than him and I had pretty much just woken up. As I said, I do think he is a really good player but 11th best in the world? Not even close Just curious, but who do you think are the 8 better than him? Mata, Rooney, Van Persie, Suarez?

Yeah that's Garrincha. Remember seeing that picture a few years back.

Was just about to post that on Facebook. dislike ITV more than Celtic.

I'm Irish and I don't like Celtic at all. Some cannon fodder for someone in the knockouts though.

I don't think Ben Arfa deserves to be on there ahead of any of those midfielders, but Colo should be in the defenders list. Ahead of Ashley Cole and Ivanovic at least.

He's been very good as a full back this year, but there are a few others who have much better than him IMO. Lahm and Alba being two of those.

4/5 for the draw. Seen that myself. Went for 11/10 under 2.5 goals instead.

I went 4-4-2 because I wanted Pirlo and Mata in the team. Buffon Alba Hummels Kompany Lahm Xavi Iniesta Pirlo Mata Ronaldo Messi.

I won fuck all.

Just watched the highlights. Absolutely sublime for the third goal, not just the strike, the all round play was excellent. Santons run and strike for the second goal was quality as well.

Roy Hodgson? Brendan Rodgers? Sam Allardyce? http://i.imgur.com/S0W6N.gif

Might have some of that too. Got 102.67 back from Newcastle winning. Happy enough. That's two wins in two weeks.

He coached the flair out of Rooney, certainly not the technical ability though. He's as technically brilliant as he's ever been.

Reckon Rooney will catch Shearer? He's only just over halfway now so I say not. I thought for a while he would break his record, but since Rooney is dropping deeper and deeper I starting to think he won't. To think Shearer had two bad injuries as well and still hit 260 league goals. Incredible. I owe Decky 100 quid if Rooney doesn't break it. Remember arguing over shots one night of who was the better player. Aa centre forwards Shearer was certainly better pre-Goodison park. The thing that sets them both apart was how much tougher Shearer was mentally compared to Rooney. Rooney is a lot better in that department now than he was. His temperament was shocking a few years ago. He was still dropping pretty deep last year and scored 34 goals. I reckon he'll run Shearers record pretty close. I think he has 90 goals in his last 145 or something. That's pretty impressive, especially with everything else he does for the team. Both joys to watch IMO. We don't get centre-forwards like Shearer anymore.

Dinho I hope you're whacking the majority of that win on a Newcastle victory.

Yorke is bound to have more than Heskey like. What about Anelka as well saying he had 56 clubs?

Do you want my Paypal details or do you want to give me it in cash when you're back home? I won't give in until his last game. See you in 2022.

name the other 9................... without checking. 1 Shearer, Fowler, Henry, Owen, Rooney, Ferdinand, Cole, Lampard, Robbie Keane? Wright.? Pretty sure Wright isn't in it the top ten. I was surprised when someone told me he wasn't and checked it. Does someone want to check the right answers? We probably have them all. Only other ones who might be there that haven't been mentioned are Sheringham and Yorke I reckon.
