Bale Enjoying Real Madrid Life After Slow Start

[Folami David]

Gareth Bale has said he is relishing life at Real Madrid now that he is clear of the niggling injuries that blighted his start to life in the Spanish capital.
.
Bale, who cost Real a reported €91 million back in September, spent nearly a month on the sidelines due to a thigh problem.
.
However, he has made a blistering return to form in the past month with three goals and five assists in his last four games.
.
"It has been great ever since I have been here, everyone has made me feel very welcome," he said at a sponsor's event on Thursday.
.
"I felt very comfortable straight away, but obviously after an injury and a bit of a slow start I am now enjoying everything on the pitch now and I am just looking forward to the rest of the season."
.
The triumvirate of Bale, Karim Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo have combined for 16 goals and 11 assists in Madrid's last four outings.
.
While Carlo Ancelotti's men have hit top form, title rivals Barcelona have been struck by a series of injuries to key players, including World Player of the Year Lionel Messi, who won't play again this year.
.
And with Real's place in the last 16 of the Champions League all but secured, Bale is hoping they can eat into Barca's six-point gap over their title rivals in the coming weeks.
.
"I think it is important first and foremost that we qualify mathematically (in the Champions League) and we make sure get through that. But even with the Champions League, we're always 100 percent focused on the league as well. No matter what competition it is we'll be going out to win every single game."

With time, i believe Gareth Bale would do well in subsequent games. He is talented.

He needs to live up to expectation more than he is doing right now. We all know he can do it
