Gale was a calm and careful defender, who had in toughness and a powerful physique his strongest points. Moreover, he was gifted with decent speed, considering his size. He had fine basic technique that made him an able dribbler and average passer. Because he was effective in the air, he liked joining the attack during corners and free kicks, being a danger in the opposing box. He was a leader of the defence, always showing his defensive instincts throughout his whole career.
