Gareth Bale scores his second goal against Sheffield Utd tonight.
Commentator says Bale is the sixth Welshman to score 50 goals in the Premier League?
Who are the other five?
Majestic. Really great idea dropping him for the League Cup final.
Giggs, Bellamy, Speed, Hartson, Hughes?
A goal or assist every 67 minutes he's played this season apparently
Making Mourinho's decision to barely play him look foolish.
More Premier League goals than Ian Rush...but of course Rush scored plenty before the rebranding.
Should do a Bellamy and play for City next season.
Damn right, City can fork out £25k a week to keep him ticking over, in fact he can probably buy the club. He can live at home, play golf as much as he wants and stroll over to training for City & Wales. He can convince Rambo to do the same & Harry Wilson to stay. We’d still manage to miss out on the playoffs though.
Showed his class there with three very well-taken goals. Not as good as Chopra’s hat-trick v Leicester mind.
Once his contract expires at Real Madrid, I wonder whether he will contemplate coming home and playing for his home-town club for next to nothing ... potentially helping us get promoted and staying in the Prem for a change.
He doesn't need any more money and he'll have Whitchurch Golf Club on his doorstep.

great 1st goal, he looked up, checked where the keeper was and put it away
He doesn't strike me as someone that is going to pitch up down here. Think when he can't play at the top or not offered ridiculous money no one would turn down he will probably retire.
Two separate statements:
i) Did he deserve to play? He's looked his best off the back of a run of games needed to boost his fitness and when the attention/negativity was on Jose instead of returning superstar out of form, but could Spurs give him a run of games playing below average when they were top of the league earlier in the season? Spurs always knew he'd contribute more at back end of the season and were hoping it was enough to get them into Champions League.
ii) He hasn't looked bothered most of the time? This is laughable: if he'd made a scene he'd be heavily criticised, if he's relaxed in front of the camera he's told he doesn't look bothered. He's acted professionally, and has wanted to act professionally, when he hasn't been given many chances.
