Bale has scored and provided six assists in his last six matches in all competitions to help Spurs put together a four-game winning streak.

The Portuguese gaffer revealed that bale has been psychologically scarred with several injury problems since his spell with Madrid but has got his mojo back.

Mourinho was quoted by Mail:

"It is not that we have challenged him or anything." We have only supported him.
"I found psychological scars in him. When you are a couple of seasons with many injuries, the important thing is not only the muscular scars, but also the psychological ones, which bring fear and instability.
"There is a moment when you are working well and when everyone around you is supporting you to the maximum. At that moment the psychological barrier is broken.
"And he has done it. It was him, not us."
