I think he had a point on Bale, who looked a little 'lost' in the formation and is not one to 'track back' too much; which is what the Spanish Press/Fans like their players to do!
Personally, I hope Bale gets his form back before the Champions League Final, scores the winning goal (again) and stays at Real Madrid next season to prove the doubters wrong! But at the end of the day if he has a bad game (and he did, by his own high standards) he must expect some criticism after cost £85m+

Keane was an exceptional leader it is a great shame we do not have anyone with his level of personal commitment to the team.As for management I believe he lacks empathy with other people which is a great shame. A great leader god help you if you did not give 100%

If you're talking about the 99 treble CL SF - he wasn't sent off, he picked up a yellow that disqualified him from the final, then played out of his skin to make sure his team got to the final - like a captain.
Roy Keane was never blessed with huge technical ability, but he held that Man Utd team together on the pitch, and was probably the best captain you could ask for. Utd would've been a much worse team without Keane.
But I agree with the punditry opinions - very poor imo

Does Ronaldo (or Messi) track back?
Don't watch much European football. What I saw of Ramos the other night, he wouldn't get in a league 2 team over here. So where is all his criticism?
Bale appears to be playing out of position in a system designed to suit Ronaldo. I heard in Spain that Real Madrid play better as a team without Ronaldo there, as everything has to go through him.
Hope he scores the winner in the Champions League Final as well.
