Wasn't comparing them positionally just athletically. Bale was the first spurs player I could think of who's a similar height and not a CB. As much as I idolise ronaldinho he's a bit heavy for a footballer who isn't really muscular like ronaldo in his prime or Cristiano now.
I'm not saying we should buy him, I'm saying if we were to he would likely play on the wing
Would much rather blood holtby or siggy in the role. Also spurs fans kept banging on about pushing Dembele on last season - so here is the perfect opportunity to do so
In the hypothetical, I'd put him in the position behind the striker in a 4411. Put two disciplined CMs behind him, two of Sandro, Dembele, Holtby, Paulinho, and two wingers either side on their correct sides. Let him have free run to do his magic
