Baros is legit when you get a good big lad like Koller who can flick it around the corner for him.

Bale = Aubameyang + EPL hype .

to be fair to bale he has it in him to be a very complete WC player, I don't know if he was nervous or not, but his first couple games were very good and efficient, i even applauded his decision making, but he got injured and jese started balling too hard, he got scared and turned into poor mans cr ever since, and jese is close to returning too

anyway auba is alright but bale> overall and the fact he has displayed complete games for a good stretch once

I think it is a fallacity to pick out and isolate players to compare them as it always depends on the players around them how much impact they can have.

If you have a set-up that brings out the best of a player, he will look better than if you put him into a setup where he doesn't work as well. So IMO you can't really say that player A is better than player B in absolutes - at best you can say "player A in club A looks better than player B looks in club B", while it could be different if player A suddenly plays in club C and player B plays in club D. In the end football is still a teamsport after all.

well that true.... tbh its not like bale overwhelms auba, when it comes to abilities either, just feel that if bale reverts to who he is, and not this crap he is doing, he is simply better imo, but as of now he is going backwards goals or no goals

Aubameyang sucks, Bale is the perfect player

Auba has 7 goals and 3 assists in 11 matches this season, Bale has 5 goals 3 assists in 11 matches this season. Not so sucky after all

So what's my name....

He's better than Bale .

Bale is better than Aubameyang. I don't even think it's particularly close TBH.

At what excatly? The only area I would say Bale is outright better at is Heading and crossing. Both their passing are around the same level, although Aubameyang has better vision at picking opponents running into space Aubameyang is much faster, better finisher, works much harder. It's not simply A is better than B in this case. Aubameyang is a better goal scorer, much better than Bale and is better at moving off the ball, to create space for both himself and teammates. He is a competent winger.

Bale is a good LW where his role is limited and he can cross and run down the channels. He is an awful CF and does not have either the intelligence or movement to play as a CF.

If I was to pick either one of them it would have to be Aubameyang tbh. Bale thinks he is better than he is evident in the fact that he wants to be Madrid's #10 when he is an extremely limited footballer. Usually Bales advantage over most player is his pace but Aubemeyang is much faster than him and is arguably the fastest footballer I have ever seen.

This is a case of EPL marketing machine pushing a player on the hapless English/world footballing populace and them gobbling it up. Remember when this forum thought Bale was actually on Neymars level when he never showed anything in his professional footballing career indicating that he had anywhere near Neymars ability, let alone his potential. I suppose 5 long shots in the EPL does that.

I don't agree. The only thing I'd give Aubameyang over Bale is finishing. I think that Bale is a better passer, he has better long shots, he's faster with the ball at his feet too which matters even though Aubameyang is a bit faster off the ball, better close control and first touch, and I really don't see a significant work rate difference at all. Bale is also stronger.

I mean look at this:



Aubameyang isn't really doing much special except being extremely clinical atm. The defending is pretty atrocious too (look how many goals he scores on poor touches). Look at Bale with Wales or with Spurs before he went to Madrid where the team is set up differently...he is the complete package. I think right now Madrid is a pretty toxic environment TBH.

Then you haven't watched BVB game. Auba constantly presses. Bale was good at Spurs because he was allowed to do what he wanted and he was taking like 12 shots a game


Yea because all of Baes goals scored where not to do with poor defending. Bale would look a good as a big fish in a small pond. At madrid he looks like a clown because he is technically average compared to all his teammates and La Liga is not a kick and rush League like the EPL.

Not to mention Auba had 25 goals and 10 assists last season for Dortmund, which equals Bale's best year at Spurs.... and is on pace to score 50 this season.

It's not even close. Auba is a monster... and Jibers, he's good in the air too. Very good.

Yes, Auba is quite good on the air. Socred some great headers with him on FIFA.

I know he is good in the air but that's one area I would say Bale might be better. Bale is also good in the air.
