Tottenham Hotspur forward Gareth Bale has been praised by Premier League legend and Optus Sport pundit Paul Scholes, who thinks Spurs look a different team with him in their ranks.

The Wales international rejoined Spurs on loan from Real Madrid in September and, following a difficult few months back in North London, is now fully up and running.

He has registered four goals and two assists in his last four Premier League games as well as two goals and one assist in the two Europa League round of 32 games against Wolfsberger.

Bale ran riot against Palace at the weekend, netting twice and creating chances for his teammates en route to a resounding 4-1 victory.

“If Tottenham are going to finish in the top four, he (Bale) is going to have a big part to play and has to stay fit,” Scholes told Optus Sport.

“They look a different team (with Bale alongside Kane and Son). The threats they’ve got in those forward areas are as good as anything in the league.”
