    The commentator didn't mention who the other five were.
    I'm guessing the five you've named would be about right.

    A goal or assist every 67 minutes he's played this season apparently

    Will we get a sell-on fee?

    Ramsey, Saunders, Hughes, Earnshaw and Speed.

    Misread. They are the only other Welsh hat-trick heroes.

    Making Mourinho's decision to barely play him look foolish.

    Re: Bale

    More Premier League goals than Ian Rush...but of course Rush scored plenty before the rebranding.

    Damn right, City can fork out £25k a week to keep him ticking over, in fact he can probably buy the club. He can live at home, play golf as much as he wants and stroll over to training for City & Wales. He can convince Rambo to do the same & Harry Wilson to stay. We’d still manage to miss out on the playoffs though.

    And maybe he could persuade his old mucker Ronaldo to join the party and resurrect the BBC - Bale, Bacuna & Cristiano!

    Showed his class there with three very well-taken goals. Not as good as Chopra’s hat-trick v Leicester mind.

    Once his contract expires at Real Madrid, I wonder whether he will contemplate coming home and playing for his home-town club for next to nothing ... potentially helping us get promoted and staying in the Prem for a change.

    He doesn't need any more money and he'll have Whitchurch Golf Club on his doorstep.

    Mourinho is one arrogant (albeit rich) Kent.

    Love the idea of Bale coming to the CCS, we can but dream.

    He doesn't strike me as someone that is going to pitch up down here. Think when he can't play at the top or not offered ridiculous money no one would turn down he will probably retire.

    Didn't deserve to play most of the time.

    Has class but didn't look bothered most of the time

    Isn't that the manager's job though, to motivate the players and get them playing to their best?

    Two separate statements:

    i) Did he deserve to play? He's looked his best off the back of a run of games needed to boost his fitness and when the attention/negativity was on Jose instead of returning superstar out of form, but could Spurs give him a run of games playing below average when they were top of the league earlier in the season? Spurs always knew he'd contribute more at back end of the season and were hoping it was enough to get them into Champions League.

    ii) He hasn't looked bothered most of the time? This is laughable: if he'd made a scene he'd be heavily criticised, if he's relaxed in front of the camera he's told he doesn't look bothered. He's acted professionally, and has wanted to act professionally, when he hasn't been given many chances.

    Why do things like that KEEP happening in a Jose Mourihnio team though?

    The list of talented players who all of a sudden don't deserve to play - but as soon as Jose leave are strangely back to their best is incredible.

    It seems like Jose's ego doesn't allow him to work with successful players who might have egos of their own.
