Football: There is not a manager in the world who would not play Bale - Mourinho

Jose Mourinho said Gareth Bale was "better than ever" following Tottenham Hotspur's 4-0 win at home to Burnley in the Premier League on Sunday. The Welsh forward, who has been hampered by injuries since arriving on loan from Madrid, scored twice in only his third Premier League start. "There is not one single manager in the world that doesn't play Gareth Bale if Gareth Bale is in very good condition. There is not one," added Mourinho. After losing five of their previous six league games, Spurs now move up to eighth with the win. Burnley lie 15th, five points above the relegation zone.
