I would rather have Bale he is playing better for his country than Kane no doubt
Has to be Bale, born winner.
Gareth Bale any day. Kane is a proven no show at tournaments apart from scoring a few penalties against against Panama then turn Casper against Croatia
This episode is pretty much Ale repeating what Sid says… Says a lot about his art at analysing content
Bale worked for it why do you compare with Kane england is overated
What's their problem with Wales and Bale? 😅
If Scotland had Bale, maybe they'd have qualified.
A player who has won a lot or a guy that has never touched a trophy… mmm such a hard question indeed
Richarlison >> Kane+ Foden
It would depend who had the better handicap.
I think its often forgotten that Perez has built and still CEO of one of the leading civil engineering companies in the world. Outside of Real Madrid, he’s on the Forbes 100. He’s a top tier businessman in his own right and i think we’ve been able to see that through the way Real Madrid is ran. PSG has all the money in the world but poor club management and you can see how important good management is to a club. What i wonder tho is how will Madrid manage once he retires.
Bale can score when the match is going againts his team.
I'm taking David Villa over Torres every day of the week. He was always more important and clutch for Spain and he scored some absolute worldies. He was deadly in the penalty box but also outside of it. Very underrated player.
Harry Kane 💯
Gareth Bale shows up in big matches
Yet another reason I can’t take this jokesters seriously 🤦🏾 I can excuse kane over bale as bale hasn’t shown much recently besides getting his team into WC but Torres over Villa their out of their minds villa outscored torres EVERY SEASON even when he was in Liverpool these guys need to let me know who their dealer is cause he got them cracked out
Ik these guys are brain dead sometimes but I thought between Bale and Kane was such an easy answer….ITS BALE. YOU TAKE BALE EVERYTIME. Bale has taken WALES. Theirs more sheeps then people at Wales. What has Kane done for England. 5 goals against Panama and like Andorra and what not in the World Cup? Bale is the only correct answer
Definitely Bale No doubt 🔥🔥🔥
Villa was top scorer for Spain in their 3 International trophies. Torres was beautiful to watch but Villa needs some respect on his name. He killed it in Barca as well.
El Niño was a killer
Whoever gave Steve Nicol a job as a pundit must be having a laugh with us right? If ESPN done beer; Steve Nicol would make alcoholics give up.
I would chose Bale. Kane offers nothing if the team isn't playing well around him. Bake is a legend. Kane is just good.
Baffles me why they talk down the best British player of all time.
Make no mistake, if Bale was English there'd be a statue in Trafalgar Square.
It's surprising how dismissive they were towards Bale. If Bale was in the England squad they may even have a chance winning the cup.
Garrett Bale and Kane don't belong in the same sentence 😳
Trusting Kane over Bale in a World Cup 😂 – big game players lads….of the two, who is?
Bale might score more goals at the world cup than Kane and might score against England, Kane will struggle to score v Wales just like he struggled to score v Scotland in the euros due to Southgate`s negative tactics.
I'll take Bale for 1 season at Juve.
Seb got about 5 seconds into the show before they started clowning him 😂😂
Bale plays better for Wales than Kane plays for England! Admittedly that's probably more down to Southgate than anyone else…
David villa > F. Torres
Welp. Bale a far better player, far better career and by far (not even close) plays better in internationals.
If Harry Kane wasn't English, he'd barely (if ever) be talked about….
And I know this because nobody outside of England rates the guy that highly. He good, not even close tho
It's funny how they say nobody will pick Bale and yet reading the comments and from what I know, the ONLY people not to pick Bale are English. (and Stevie) ….
Bale. He shows up in big games for country. I’d have Pogba over Harry Kane too.
I actually think Gareth Bale is perfect for Wales and Harry Kane is perfect for England.
