To collect a huge, guaranteed pay check. He’s won pretty much everything and to leave would mean effort and moving his family. He’s a guaranteed starter for Wales, so what’s his motivation for leaving?

I get the huge check!

but would think Some playing time before the Euros? Also Being able to look back in 10/20 years and not think I wasted two years of my career.

Mate, I agree and if I was Bale I would want to show I could lead the line at any club and hit the Euros on fire. I’m not though and we can only guess at his motivations or lack of! I was shocked when I saw the “Wales, Golf, Madrid in that order” flag. Made me question his character to be honest, even if he was just saying how he felt, this forum has roasted players like Rose for saying far less!

Stop hurting yourselves, you masochists.

Daddy’s never coming back. He was here, and then he was gone. And it doesn’t matter what you say or what you think. He left because he didn’t care. And he still doesn’t care

He was injured for the midweek game I think, only returned to training this week? So not a huge surprise.

Delete this now! How dare you talk sense and reason at a time like this. He's not injured, he's on a bloody Learjet somewhere over northern France!!!!

Can we just name threads like this the "We TrIeD WeElY HaRd BuT FaILeD ThReAd". We don't need the players name next window just the that in the description so everyone understands what's going on.

I think you are totally right! I guess Zidane, the agent and everyone just was ironic when they said he isn`t coming.

Of course they weren't being ironic, they were actors in the latest drama and suspense series unfolding before our very eyes and available for the reasonable subscription fee on £7.99 per month on PrimeVideo from August 2020.
