Gareth Bale said in a recent interview that:

"If it wasn't for injuries, my name would be in the same debate with Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi name.

At Real Madrid training sessions I was the best free kick taker, the best finisher, but Cristiano was preferred to take them freekicks and all dead balls except for corner kicks, but at training i was always above him in the free kicks scoring rate.

In Champions League finals I did great, particularly against Atletico Madrid we were two minutes away to defeat, but guess what I saved them, we went on to win 4-1, but my name is forgotten.

Against Liverpool in the final I scored a sensational goal but no one wants to admit that it was the best goal in Champions League just because my name is Gareth Bale "

What are yourThoughts on this?
