Opinion?I think what we need and could realistically now get are winners.
Bale and Zlatan would completely change our mentality and with Jose there might just be the chance to tempt them.

People need to realise there's a good chance our transfer targets will be completely different under Mourinho. Won't necessarily be solely young high-potential players anymore.Here we go again, you lot make me laugh, get linked to a top player like Ibra and you don't want him at the club, you've been asking for a backup player for ages and yet when we're linked to a good one you don't want him...you're actually mental...I just can't...

Madrid picked up a chunk of the wages when they loaned Raul to Shalke and Casillas to Porto. The media in Spain are frothing at the mouth over him posing with that "Wales, Golf, Madrid" flag and his position may well be untenable. If it doesn't make any difference in how much he earns, surely he'd at least be open to the possibility of returning to Spurs where he'll be loved, and get to work with a manager he gets on with, rather than stay at Madrid and rot.
Well Bale will want t start, so what’s your front 3? Lucas will want out soon and tbf he needs a run of games imo.Could actually see Bale on loan in January as a possibility now
My front six would look like this:Well Bale will want t start, so what’s your front 3? Lucas will want out soon and tbf he needs a run of games imo.
I completely agree with you. I wouldn't care if they don't sign. But nor would I be livid if they did. For the reasons you mention. Plus, the guy is a perennial winner. A closer. And perhaps the club and the players need one or two veterans like him around who can imbue that attitude into our squad. 'Cos frankly, none of them are 'winners'. And like you said, it's not like he'd be relied upon all that much. My guess is he'd either come off the bench for Kane in the last 10 or 15 mins after the win is pretty much wrapped up or conversely, throw him out there if we are losing or drawing during the last 10 or 15 mins. I certainly don't think he'd be that much worse than Llorente.Normally these short term deal suggestions are silly, but on this one I wouldn't actually mind it. What's the worst that could happen? We only have one actual senior striker now (Son/Moura occasionally fill in on a good day, given any run of games though they show its not their forte) so just getting someone in is a plus, and he'd come in not as first choice. I've seen he's been offered a 6 month + 1 year option at Milan...... We offer the same, if he's completely past it wave him goodbye in the summer with absolutely no harm done. What we would get is someone with the best resume around who could still very probably teach Kane and Parrott a few tricks as to No.9 play, and you'd be fairly sure with his personality he'd be determined to push Kane and keep him on his toes.
I would love it if we brought Bale back, but I don't get why people suddenly think this is a possibility again? Appointing Mourinho doesn't mean Levy will suddenly be willing to spunk £500k a week on a 30 year old. No one in Europe is going to pay that, hence him being bound for China!
