Former Wales forward Robert Earnshaw has insisted the USMNT must be wary of the threat Gareth Bale can cause ahead of their World Cup clash on Monday.
Bale has declared himself 'ready to go' following fitness concerns in the build-up to the tournament having spent the last season in the MLS. With Wales once again seen as underdogs to progress from Group B, hopes will no doubt once again be resting on the former Tottenham star's shoulders.
Having qualified for their first World Cup since 1958, merely reaching the tournament in Qatar is seen as a huge honor for most on-watchers. With England and Iran still to come too, Earnshaw believes Bales can deliver on the biggest stage of all, as he has for his county before.
