Gareth Bale Has Right Mental Strength - Coleman

[Folami David]

Wales manager Chris Coleman believes that Gareth Bale's mental toughness, as much as his talent, will ensure the forward succeeds at Real Madrid.
.
Bale has joined up with the Wales squad for World Cup qualifiers against Macedonia and Serbia after his £85.3m world record transfer from Tottenham.
.
The 24-year-old is not match-fit but Coleman hopes he can play some part in Skopje on Friday or Cardiff on Tuesday.
.
"I can't really speak highly enough of his attitude," Coleman said.
.
"But it's that attitude that's got him where he is because talent is not enough.
.
"I've seen a lot of gifted players fall by the wayside. You have to have that mentality and he's got it.
.
"He's a very grounded boy and that will stand him in good stead going forward."
.
Bale has not played for over a month, but will travel to Macedonia for Friday's World Cup qualifier.
.
He trained with the Wales squad in Cardiff on Tuesday after making it clear at his Real Madrid unveiling he was keen to join his national side in order to regain fitness.
.
"The place where he's playing now, it doesn't get any bigger than that - or better - but he'll deal with it," said Coleman. "I'm quite sure of that.

Gareth Bale should definately have a swell time with Cristiano Ronaldo in Real Madrid. They are the two heroes there now!
