I would suggest as he ages he will use more of this precautionary injury moments , he's got a great chance of being big at Madrid even number 1 ,so he will protect that.

I see a likeness in Giggsy in his latter years , even for Utd ,he was rested ,to prelong his playing career.

Big chance for he Welsh youngsters , and see how Wales cope without Bale against quality opposition .
