Good Week/Bad Week: We look at the winners and losers over the last seven days        

Another week in the world of sport has given us another group of heroes and villains to analyse

As always it was another action-packed week of sporting action, including plenty of highs and lows.

Here we look back on all the drama and pick out our selection of the best and the worst.

Gareth Bale

Price tags can often be the making or the breaking of a footballer. Some cannot live up to the billing and for around £80 million you expect to get your money's worth. That is what Real Madrid paid Tottenham for the Welsh winger and boy are they getting value for money. Incredible as it sounds.

Bale’s perfect hat-trick

Bale's protracted transfer saga might have given him a slow start out of the blocks, but he is flying now. 

The former Southampton youngster almost single-handedly downed Real Valladolid on Saturday with the perfect hat-trick, and he also assisted Real's fourth goal.

The 24-year-old scored a left and right-footed goal along with a header, all while Cristiano Ronaldo watched on from the sidelines confirming the belief that Bale is indeed currently one of the world's best footballers.
