Other than buying GLC, Ndombele, PEH and loaning Gedson. In the space of the last season.
And Mousa, Winks etc.
While another attacking midfielder and striker would be great, we're pretty bloody dangerous across the entire pitch.

Two things that are a real shame right now.
1 Bale injury. I bet he's absolutely chomping at the bit right now.
2 No crowd to welcome Bale or Sergio. Thats such a shit bag.
I can see arrests outside the ground though for too many people gathering lol.
Bale must be absolutely pumped right now (@freeeki no)

You joined in 2004. Wouldn't Ginola have been hella old if he'd have came back that summer?
He was before my time, so apologies for not knowing too well
If BT location blocks it on twitter, i will be very mad.

You can see he's got to grow that entire left leg below the knee. Gonna be a slow process.

can't believe we've got Kane, Bale and Son available as a front three. Should be a few goals there!

37 to be exact. And retired for two years. But he was my idol as a teenager going every week to watch 10 shit footballers and one long haired magician lighting the place up.
Looks like life at 35 hasn’t changed much for me ?

For those of you you can’t get into the site to read our statement:
We are delighted to announce the return of Gareth Bale to the Club on a season-long loan from Real Madrid.
He will wear the number 9 shirt.
Initially signed as a 17-year-old from Southampton in 2007, Gareth made his name over six years at Spurs before moving to the Bernabeu in the summer of 2013.
His electrifying displays in the Champions League - including a hat-trick against Inter in the San Siro in October, 2010 - made the world sit up and take notice.
He went on to make 203 appearances for us in all competitions, scoring 55 goals, including 26 in a memorable final campaign in 2012/13.
During that time, he was twice named PFA Player of the Year (2011, 2013) and completed the treble of PFA Player/PFA Young Player and Football Writers’ Footballer of the Year in 2013. He was named in the PFA Team of the Year three times in a row, 2010/11, 2011/12 and 2012/13.
Gareth departed for Real Madrid for a world-record fee in the summer of 2013. He capped his first season with a goal in the Champions League Final, as Los Blancos beat Atletico Madrid. He's lifted Europe's elite trophy four times in seven years in Spain, and scored one of the all-time great Champions League Final goals, a flying overhead kick in a 3-1 win against Liverpool in 2018.
He's won a host of trophies during his time in Spain, including two La Liga titles, two UEFA Super Cups and three FIFA World Club Cups, and contributed 105 goals in 251 appearances.
A talisman for Wales, Gareth now has 85 caps to his name, and is his country's all-time top goalscorer on 33.
He became Wales' youngest full international when he made his debut aged 16 years and 315 days in 2006 (a record now held by Liverpool's Harry Wilson) and spearheaded qualification for a first major tournament since 1958 when Wales made it to the finals of Euro 2016. Gareth scored three times as the Dragons made a dream run to the semi-finals in France. He overtook Ian Rush (28 goals) as his country's top marksman with goal number 29 in March, 2018.
Gareth sustained a knee injury whilst playing for Wales on international duty earlier this month and this together with La Liga’s later start compared to the Premier League means he has had a limited pre-season. We currently anticipate that he will be match fit after October’s international break.

Trying to gather my thoughts about Bale. He was the first player that made me love Tottenham. I remember THAT season watching it with my dad when I was 9 and he would just pull off something astonishing every week, was devastated when he left. Unfortunately my dad passed earlier this year, I wish we couldve seen him down the Lane one last time together. He was born to play for spurs x
