It is often a difficult task in sport, to find an Englishman who is jealous of anything to do with their neighbours.However 21-year-old flying winger Gareth Bale is proving to be an exception, and after another storming display people up and down England are declaring "if only he was English."
His Premier League form has been excellent so far this season, but it is the last two European games that have put him on the radar of Europe's elite.
In Maicon Inter Milan have one of the best right back in the business, Bale though has made him look pedestrian for 180 minutes of football.
As if a tremendous second half hat-trick in the San Siro wasn't enough, he laid on two goals last night as well as a number of other chances.
Is their anything that he can't do?
He can help out in defence, run at defenders and skin them easily, take dead balls, cross, shoot pretty much all with the same effectiveness.
However with Real Madrid, Barcelona and Inter Milan all rumoured to be interested, Spurs will have to do everything they can to keep hold of the Welsh winger.
Not too far in the past Spurs were willing to get rid of Bale due to poor performances, but they have stuck by him and look at the effects.
Lets just hope he realises this and does seek pastures new on the continent.
