Bale will get even better: Coleman

WALES manager Chris Coleman believes Gareth Bale's best years are still ahead of him as he contemplates a potential world record move to Spanish giants Real Madrid. But Coleman, who has named the Tottenham star among a 23-man squad for next Wednesday's friendly, stressed he will not be getting involved in the ongoing situation. "I am sure with what is going on in terms of the transfer - there is a lot on Gareth's mind and Tottenham's mind," Coleman said. "I don't get involved with what is going on with Gareth's transfer. He is only 24, and he is only going to get better."

Wales squad: Hennessey (Wolves), Myhill (West Brom), Fon Williams (Tranmere), Davies (Swansea), Collins (West Ham), Gabbidon (Palace), Gunter (Reading), Matthews (Celtic), Ricketts (Wolves), Taylor (Swansea), A Williams (Swansea), Allen (Liverpool), Collison (West Ham), King (Leicester), Ledley (Celtic), Ramsey (Arsenal), Vaughan (Sunderland), J Williams (Palace), Bale (Tottenham), Bellamy (Cardiff), Church (Charlton), Robson-Kanu (Reading), Vokes (Burnley).
