It was all slightly akin to a chess game, n'est ce pas? And not one of those awesome
chess games either, in which one lad loses his rag somewhat, dashes the pieces across the board and
clobbers his opponent with the clock, leading to a mass brawl involving spectators and allsorts.
This was one of those chess games in which white thoughtfully strokes his chin for a good seven or
eight minutes, before moving his bishop a few diagonals backwards whence he came, prompting black
to ponder for four minutes himself, hover his hand over his queen, retract hand, ponder some more,
and then move his knight back into its starting position.
Some areas of the press are suggesting that it hasn't been such a stellar year for Gareth Bale
in comparison with last season. Those reports tend to just point to the winger's hat trick in the
San Siro but they conveniently forget that this has been a much more consistent campaign for the
Welshman.

In which the majestic, graceful, honest and British Gareth Bale is unfortunate enough to run
headlong through a hotspot of intensely strong gravity caused by solar flares reflecting off the
twin moons of Tatooine at Anfield on Monday night.
Poor Gareth.
Pepe wished he hadn't pulled Gareth's fingerMonday night was not Gareth Bale's.
While a 0-0 draw with Liverpool at Anfield is a good result for Tottenham, and the match itself was
arguably one of the better stalemates you're likely to see in terms of energy and commitment, it is
a game Bale might soon wish to put behind him.

Anfield
History:
Total: 153
Liverpool Wins: 70
Tottenham Wins: 45
Draws: 38
Last Premier League Meeting: 18 September 2011 – Tottenham 4-0 Liverpool
Form:
Liverpool: The last three games have been perhaps the best run of three games Liverpool have had
this season, advancing in both cups with first a 2-2 draw against Manchester City in the League Cup
then a 2-1 win over Manchester United in the FA Cup, before pulverizing Wolves a weekend ago by a
3-0 scoreline.

FIFA is considering a number of rule changes that could have a major impact on the international
game going forward.
The major proposal that FIFA's board is facing would allow teams to use a fourth substitute in
extra time in an attempt to cut down on player injuries.
While the emerging transfer stories dominate the headlines there was the small matter of a 3-1
win over a poor Wigan side last night. No prizes for guessing the man of the match although Luka
Modric would have run two goal Gareth Bale close with some intricate passing and a stunning goal of
his own.

Tottenham Hotspur 3-1 Wigan Athletic Premier League 31st January 2012
Welsh wing-wizard Gareth Bale was once again Tottenham's star performer as the north Londoners
got their title tilt back on track at White Hart Lane in front of Harry Redknapp, who was back in
the dug-out to watch his charges win.
Languagecaster.com's weekly football phrase. Who scored a sweet strike this weekend?
The great irony here being that if it was Peter Crouch, it 100% would have gone inFootball, the
great reducing force in all our lives. If Jermain Defoe had stretched for that Bale cross just a
millisecond earlier, we'd all be headed to work this morning without that overbearing sense of
melancholy that you're probably still feeling.

Given that he really shouldn't have been on the pitch by that time, Tottenham had every right to
feel absolutely bloody eviscerated at the final whistle seeing as Mario Balotelli both won and
then subsequently rolled home a 95th-minute penalty to nab all three points for Man City with the
final touch of the game at the Etihad.
Manchester City went six points clear at the Barclays Premier League summit after a late penalty
conversion from Mario Balotelli ensured a thrilling 3-2 win over a resilient Tottenham Hotspur at
the Etihad Stadium.
After a slow first half, the hosts came alive at the beginning of the second, with goals from
Samir Nasri and Joleon Lescott creating a comfortable two-goal cushion.

It's been an incredible eighteen months for Gareth Bale and a period that has ended with our
Welsh left winger being named as the only British player in UEFA's team of 2011.
Bale took his place among the likes of Barcelona's Dani Alves, Gerard Pique, Xavi, Andres
Iniesta and Lionel Messi as well as Real Madrid's Cristinao Ronaldo, Iker Casillas and Marcelo.

Those overpaid, underworked suits ensconced in the plush environs of Geneva have taken time out
from their golf outings and gala receptions to put together their team of the year for 2011 which
has been compiled from over 4.
Totteham Hotspurs' winger, Gareth Bale, is in a confident mood ahead of his team's travel to
challenge the current league leader, Manchester City at Etihad Stadium.
The Welsh international believes that despite losing 5-1 in their previous meeting against City
this season, Spurs can come away with a positive result from their upcoming away trip against
Roberto Mancini's team.
It's Milan Derby weekend and if you're all like "Snoozefest time!"... STEP

So, it feels pretty good to be a Spurs fan at the moment right?! Six points off City with a game in
hand and possibly even more satisfying, six points in front of Arsenal with that same game in hand.
I'm looking forward to the FA Cup this weekend and I'm hoping we will make short work of Cheltenham
even if most of the first eleven are given what would be a well overdue rest.
This is the exact pose Sergio Aguero makes on the way to the Manchester Market
every Sunday for tea and biscuits! Can't blame the bloke, he's really enjoying life at the
club.
We know you Scousers aren't entirely happy about losing 3-0 to
Mancini's Men last night, but that's how football is.
Recent games have dealt with the notion of ‘Arry as a tactical buffoon in no uncertain manner.
In days gone by the signing of VDV, the plan to loan Bale to Nottingham Forest and the instruction
to Pav to "go out there and f***ing run about" did little for our glorious leader's reputation as
tactical genius, and was grist to the mill of a whole army or interweb critics (mea culpa)
who lambasted him for doing little more than closing his eyes, pinning a tail on a donkey and
accepting the plaudits as his blind gamble paid off.
Sir Alex Ferguson has begun his psychological war games. The Manchester United manager has said
that Tottenham are the best team at the moment. Of course Sir Alex Ferguson was talking about
Britain and not Europe, after all, as good as Tottenham are they are probably not quite yet at
Barcelona's level.

A couple of days ago, I happened to comment on Twitter following Man Utd's 5-0 thrashing
of Wigan at Old Trafford and Man City's 0-0 away draw with West Bromwich Albion, that the title was
now down to a two horse race as both Arsenal, Chelsea, and Liverpool had failed to beat either
Wolves, Fulham or Blackburn respectively.
1. Gareth Bale- It's easy to jump on the Gareth Bale bandwagon. We all did it after his fabulous
hat trick at the San Siro. We all did it after his Player of the Year Award. I'm doing it again
now. ...

Many a time and oft my Spurs-supporting chum Ian has peddled the theory that Gareth Bale should
be shoved right up the top, through the middle, and play as an out-and-out centre-forward.
Outlandish it may be, but last night actually provided a glimpse of how the world would be run if
Ian were King.
Are there any other contenders for this accolade besides the amazing Gareth Bale? After the
Welshman's two goals inspired Tottenham's win, manager Harry Redknapp was typically effusive in his
praise.
"I played him in a free role," Harry said. Him and Rafa, rather than on the left. He pops up in
positions in-between the midfield and defence, it's difficult to pick him up and once he turns and
runs, like he did for the second goal, he's unstoppable.
Bale love-in takes physical turn Gareth Bale was the star of the show as Tottenham eased past
Norwich in a relative stroll in the park last night. In an attempt to get some sort of revenge,
Richie De Laet decided to do to Bale what the Welshman had been metaphorically doing to the Norwich
defence [..

Fellt-footed wing-wizard Gareth Bale was in devastating form at Carrow Road on Tuesday night,
scoring two goals in a world class performance. So good was the Welshman's performance that one
couldn't help but fall for the former Southampton star's simian charms.
Gareth Bale adds to his opener with a wonderful second goal showing his powerful speed and
exemplary finishing in front of goal at Carrow Road to keep Tottenham's Title chances alive.
Gareth Bale gives Tottenham a deserved lead at Carrow Road against Norwich.

Tottenham Hotspur Chelsea Premier League 22nd December 2011
A clash between third and fourth in the table, this heavyweight London derby lived up to its
billing, with both sides getting something from a superb game of football.
Crunch time. This one could not be much bigger if it were written in size 72 font, stretched in
a rack and then injected with muscle-steroid-type-things by that Russian giant of a chap David Haye
beat a couple of years back. It's not just the three points, which would give us a five-point
platform from which to wave down at Chelski, with a game in hand.
We'll touch on the latest news surrounding John Terry's current predicament very soon. For now,
though, we focus on the massive contest at White Hart Lane. I don't think I'm overstating when I
say this is going to be kind of epic.
Team news and the like from 2:45pm EDT.
While Aaron Lennon is definitely out of tomorrow's match with Chelsea, Gareth Bale is also rated
as very doubtful for the clash.
Speaking at a press conference ahead of the game, Spurs manager Harry Redknapp gave his comments
on how the two wide men are progressing and the news on Lennon is a little more encouraging than
first thought,
"Gareth's struggling at the moment," reported Harry.
