What impression is given of Gareth Bale in this report?
Story:
Gareth Bale today hit back at accusations that he dives by claiming he is just trying to protect himself from serious injury.
The Tottenham winger has been criticised this
season for āgoing to groundā too easily and
Stevenage manager Gary Smith was unhappy that
Bale was granted a penalty when challenged by
Mark Roberts last night.
āI tend not to diveā, insists Bale
Doubts were also expressed about the
spot-kick awarded to Bale during the north London
derby last month, yet the Welshman insists he has
no option but to take evasive action from aggressive,
dirty tackles: āI try not to get in the way of tackles and if people want to say Iām diving then
they can but Iām trying to get out of the way and save myself, save my career if you likeā,
he said. āYouāve got people flying in at you.
āIf you stand there, youāre going to get a whack. Sometimes it looks like youāre diving but if
someoneās coming across you, you try to get out of the way. You can see why people say
youāre diving but Iād rather dive ā meaning get out of the way - than get hurt. I tend not to
diveā.
Harry Redknapp has blasted claims that Gareth Bale is a diver ā saying:
He just gets kicked all the time!
Spurs manager Harry Redknapp defended his player recently saying, āI donāt think he
divesā, but also suggested that Bale would need to accept that rough treatment will
increase as his reputation grows. Redknapp used the examples of Lionel Messi and
Cristiano Renaldo, probably the two most tightly-marked players in the game, to show Bale
what he can expect as his career develops.
He believes Bale should regard it as a compliment if teams seek to stop him by illegal
means and the 22-year old admitted he takes a degree of confidence from the way he is marking.
