Bale got 11 league goals? Last season? Seriously?!Agreed but Bale scored 11 league goals. We didn’t get enough contribution from the other forwards and midfielders but the CB’s were easily our biggest weakness last season who mainly cost us with silly mistakes.
Yep and yet he's an abject failure remembered only for not covering for the worlds brickest right back. Hung out to dry by Mou and why we didn't get another deal done was flimflam to me. Spurs legend always!Bale got 11 league goals? Last season? Seriously?!

Why isn't he here? fudging insane, and it aint the wedge.Let's see,
1 vs Brighton
2 vs Burnley
2 vs Palace
1 vs Southampton
3 vs Sheff Utd
2 vs Leicester
So, yeah 11 PL goals....that is indeed a lot to replace

He may have wanted to be here more if Jose hadn't stiffed him with the way we set up last season.Tbh, i don't think he wanted to be. A talent like him knows his days are numbered and he'd want to be playing higher than the Conference League is he amd when he does play....
Our job was to replace those finishes however...

Don't mean to be bitter but Gareth Bale was a GHod and deserved so much more respect and still does.
He was pretty efficient too. He averaged a goal every 80 mins. I think Jose could have used him betterLet's see,

Wow. The surprise to me is not just that I’d never thought of Son as being a prolific assister but also never thought Salah or Sterling passed that much either!
The biggest travesty is that we didn’t put his £200k a week wages to use elsewhere in the squad. £10m a year slashed from the wage bill there.Why isn't he here? fudging insane, and it aint the wedge.
In Sterling’s case they are more likely to result from a mibrick shot….Wow. The surprise to me is not just that I’d never thought of Son as being a prolific assister but also never thought Salah or Sterling passed that much either!

Continue blaming Jose for Bale not staying after his loan.He may have wanted to be here more if Jose hadn't stiffed him with the way we set up last season.

A player as direct as Son will more often than not be "streaky", depending on whether he's targeted by the defense or not. Remember the good times when Kane used to be targeted? If he went to the toilet, 3 players would follow him opening up acres of space.Liverpool fans bang on about Firmino being the glue for them but his goal record isn’t very good and Salah actually creates and assists more as shown by the table.
Son has definitely become a more rounded player in the last few years. I think it’s inaccurate to label him “streaky” as he tends to create even if he doesn’t score.
Fair enough but personally just in enjoyment alone that brace to keep Leicester out of the Champions league was worth every penny.The biggest travesty is that we didn’t put his £200k a week wages to use elsewhere in the squad. £10m a year slashed from the wage bill there.
