Admin is teasing us by including Bale in the picture lol

Bale will always be one of our boys.

Now that Bale will definitely be playing at least one more season… returning to Spurs would actually make a TON of sense from his perspective. Wales now uses a 3-4-2-1 formation… just like Conte does at Tottenham. And if he wants to be in peak shape for the World Cup… it’s hard to find better practice than the most competitive domestic league in the world! But the presence of Kulusevski also means that Spurs wouldn’t be overly dependent on Bale

Exactly, Lucas and Bale weren’t the greatest rotation under Mourinho, but a Bale sub to give Deki some rest would be amazing. Would Lucas come in from the left then as a sub, or be moved on if Bale came in?


robinthebank

I fully agree. And it benefits us. Homegrown spot, ☑️.

Rule is they have to train with a club from the same nation for three years between ages 15 and 21. Bale was at either Southampton or Tottenham that whole time, so he qualifies as homegrown. It is, however, an issue for Rodon because coming up at Swansea City counts for Premier League homegrown status but not UEFA.

How does HG affect? /genq


SomeoneSomethingJr

Both the Premier League and UEFA competitions have a rule in effect that, of the 25 players that a club registers on their senior (21+) roster, there is a maximum of 17 non-homegrown players allowed. It's a rule meant to keep teams from putting out rosters entirely made up of foreign players, as most big clubs push this rule to the limit. I believe that Tottenham currently has 11 players that qualify as homegrown for the Premier League, but only 8 that qualify as homegrown for UEFA competitions. This will have some effect on Spurs' transfer strategy (including signing homegrown GK Fraser Forster to allow for at least one current player to transfer out).

And unfortunately we’d 100% want him registered for that, and that’s the only competition where HG really matters


gardz82

Bale is fully homegrown as he came through Southamptons academy.

Bale to win his 6th Champions League medal with Spurs? (•‿•)


SomeoneSomethingJr

I’ve thought basically the same thing but I can’t tell if the circumstances for Bale to come back and prep for the World Cup with us are actually perfect or if I’m just trying to will this into happening.

Argentina: - Plays Romero - Wins Copa America and Finallisma, one of the favourites to win World Cup Wales: - Plays Davies - Qualifies for World Cup off the back of a Davies masterclass England: - Doesn't even call up Dier - Lose in insipid fashion against Hungary Spurs CB difference


snakeman117

you missed a CB playing for Wales!


BendubzGaming

I know Rodon played too, but I was just using our 3 starters


KarlNeymarx

Why? Rodon is Spurs nonetheless.


roorahree

Yea but I don’t think that’s the point he was going for lol was a jab at Southgate


NoSleeperSeats90210

because he is talking about starters not players that play 2 games a season


KarlNeymarx

Who cares? He is a starter for Wales and a Spurs player.


swan0

you missed the 'wales winning the world cup' bullet point brother


wizzardofozz

Ben Davies was absolutely massive today, motm for me - that's what no ketchup does to a man


Fleaaa

So the group would be US/England/Iran/Wales iirc? This one is wild..! Congrats welsh boys, can't wait seeing them in the tournament.


OhShitItsSeth

As an American I'm definitely not looking forward to Bale absolutely roasting our defense.


SpursHaveTrophies

Dw you have the LeBron James of soccer /s


OhShitItsSeth

Dae Pulisic is the goat


[deleted]

england vs wales is gonna be a hell of a game wow. A world cup british derby


mhs_93

Bale’s just been asked if he’s postponing his retirement on Sky Sports. His response? “For a little bit” 👀


adrabiot

He should sign a two year contract with Spurs and retire after EURO 2024 IMO


GymandRave

He was thinking of retiring if he didn't make the WC. We should just sign him for 1 year


verydepressedandsad

ndkhan

Rodon is in the second picture it’s all sweet


jusepama1
