7. Gareth Bale's Heart

Another much maligned celebration, Gareth Bale€™s trademark heart shape celebration follows every single goal the flying Welshman scores, accompanying a huge daft grin in a classic image of the recent years of the Premier League. Bale says it€™s a gesture dedicated to his girlfriend, but to the football world outside White Hart Lane it€™s only an annoying reminder that Tottenham have scored. It€™s a much discussed celebration; dividing opinion among fans- it even has its own Facebook page. Strangely enough it€™s not a celebration invented by Bale, but it€™s been popularised by him to a degree where he is synonymous with the €˜Bale heart€™. It is nonetheless a classic; scoring a goal with Bale€™s glorious 93 sprint speed and seeing him celebrate in any other way would simply not be right and it would be a well received addition to the game, one which would make the experience all the more realistic.
