It’s been quite a long time ago since Real Madrid has managed to lift major piece of silverware as Barcelona has recently been going through a reign dominance where the team of Luis Enrique have won just about everything.
Barcelona secured the treble as Luis Enrique’s squad experienced huge success and won all of the major titles of the 2014-15 season. They now have the task of defending all of their recently claimed trophies.
Due to this domination that Barcelona has been experiencing, it has forced Real Madrid to sit out and stand by the sidelines as they watch their rivals take up the entire spotlight.
Gareth Bale was signed for a staggering €94 million and even though the Welshman certainly has helped out Real Madrid in winning trophies, he has not been able to compete with the power of Messi and company.
There was a moment when Gareth Bale managed to stand out and this was back in April 16 of 2014 when the Welsh player picked up the ball at the 84th minute and collected it ahead of Barcelona’s Marc Bartra with an amazing burst of speed before slipping it into the net of Jose Manuel Pinto. This goal was easily one of the best of the entirety of 2014 as Bale’s change of speed was remarkable and he proved why Real Madrid was willing to splash out so much cash for him.
Bale said that he has recently been remembering those moments and explained that it was an amazing feeling as he celebrated the goal at the Mestalla Stadium in Valencia in front of Barcelona fans. Read more »

The inability to score goals was a major factor in the club finishing outside the top four once again last season. Even though Brendan Rodgers had brought Mario Balotelli as the replacement for Luis Suarez, the Italian international disappointed immensely after scoring only one league goal throughout the campaign. The situation became more desperate due to the injury crisis faced by striker Daniel Sturridge. Liverpool have been one of the active clubs in the summer transfer window by bringing players like Nathaniel Clyne.
However, Aldridgehas recognised a need for a top striker as the priority number one for the Reds. After scoring almost 3 goals per game during the campaign in which Luis Suarez was named as the PFA Player of the Year, the club went on to averaging only just over a goal per game against last season. They have signed defenders likeClyne while midfielders like James Milner and Firmino should provide the club with a lot of strength in depth especially considering the departure of a big name like Steven Gerrard in this position.
