Makes you wonder why he didn't play like that against "the almighty" Vålerenga Razz

People keep mentioning Bale played as CAM but I swear it looked like a 4-3-3 with Bale on the right just changing sides ever so often and in a few instances he was in the center of the pitch when we were attacking.

The difference is that Bale under Ancelotti was pinned on the right which resulted in him not getting or seeing that much of the ball. Now, he's more involved because he's deployed behind the striker all while having the freedom to interchange with Ronaldo, so he can go from mediapunta to sneaking out wide. He didn't have that freedom under Ancelotti.

Not keeping width by having people crash in is going to bite us in the arse against the better teams...
