If they sell Bale they won't be much better than last season imo. They will be better because of better depth but the talent in their starting XL won't be much better. Bale is so good and he is almost impossible to replace. Willian, Soldado, Chadli, Paulinho and so on a very good players but they are not worldclass like Bale. Bale is the type that scores a goal out of nothing when Spurs needs a goal. Soldado and Willian don't do that without the team helping them and these new players still have to replace good players like Lennon and Parker, so the question is how big the difference actually will be compared to last season if they sell Bale..
