The dynamic of the team has changed since CR's departure.
There could well be a power struggle going on to be top dog/the catalyst post-Ronaldo and I don't think Bale has the same drive that Ronaldo has. TBH, I doubt anybody else at RM has either.
Too much politics going on for it to be cut and dried but a new man, the right man who wants to build his side around him, might just see Bale's fortunes change for the better.
